I hope Fury finishes him early again just so we can hear Wilders excuses. Wilder does have a punchers chance though. Should be a good fight.

I think it is all subjective. Back in the Uk we used to work job n knock. Basically if you wanted a break, have a quick one then crack on. As long as everyone is on the same page it works very well. Back home by 1-2pm job done and no time wasted. Over here in Norway people tend to take breaks. Usually 7. - 7.30 on-site and start work. Depends on who I am contracting for. Work for 3.5 hours and then have 25-30 mins for lunch. Work from 1100 for another couple of hours and on the road by 1400-1430. Have a break for water of water we if you need it. One of the guys stops regularly at 13.30 - 1400 for 30 mins. If I am working with him I will often work up till 16/17.00. Job dependent. He pays by the hour so a 10 hour day can be quite profitable. That doesn’t include driving to and from the job. It does cover driving to multiple jobs though if we do more in the day. Works for me. Many moons ago, I worked for Greenwich Council. I lasted just over 6 months as the forced breaks drove me mental. I would have much rather done the same amount of work and been home by 10.30 and then had another job in the afternoon.

The perfect, symbiotic relationship.

So did you agree on a location to get a room? Your place, his place or just a seedy motel somewhere betwixt the two? 👉🏼👌🏼

iPhone, Mac whatever.

Any one got a link watch for online watchey?

We once turned up to a pretty posh house and their were dog eggs all over the garden. The lady of the house, proper city type was getting ready for work. I knocked on the door and explained the situation of the eggs. I said do you have a pooper skooper as we can’t work with it like that? All polite she says, sure no problem. She found the skooper and walked over to me and tried to hand it. She looked quite upset when I told her it wasn’t my dog so I wasn’t picking any off them up.

Mark, Steve Launchbury had the same problem on one of his tippers. We ended up having to mess about with the control panel in the dash. Hope you get it sorted mate.

Did they not put stitches in in the first place? Looks pretty painful, hope it gets better. I know your pain, I am still on sick leave, due to cutting some tendons and nerves in my fingers that required 4 hours surgery to repair.

I prefer the Norwegian model. A company/SE individual needs to register for MVA (VAT) once they hit 50000 NOK (4500 GBP Approx). That allows the odd job on the side, a lot of people have second jobs, to be done without VAT. BUT, it means anyone who is basically using SE status as a main means of income or even charging more than 4.5k, needs to be registered for VAT.

Are you charging them a rate per inch, plus VAT?

Did you run that kettle over? No mate. 😂 That is my Father in Laws kettle. He got it for his confirmation when he was 15. He must be 70 now. He takes it on every hike / ski trip and always makes his coffee in it.

I know them as Swedish logs or workers candles. whether they found a bit of dead tree to make or just lopped a couple of foot off the end. they would then have a means to boil water and cook in the woods.

I’ve done it with sycamore and birch, both were very seasoned though. Pine spruce or any resin-fest of soft wood works well.

One of my pals used to have a load in his stand at posh country game fairs and arts and crafts events. He would always sell out.

Did you have a very dry summer last year? Are there more seeds this year? A lot of the trees in Oslo look like they are succumbing to DED yet the foliage and vigour looks poor. Yet it is a bumper year for seed production after a dry summer last year. Could be a thought?

It is already for sale on the German Freeworker site.

I will take your word for it.

I can’t understand why people keep using these.

It’s on Netflix. IP Man 4 the finale.

Gruesome fight scene from Deadwood. Be warned. This is arguably one of the most accurate depictions on screen of a fight. They are both knackered after about a minute. Fight starts at 7.30 mark.

Steve, have you seen the latest IPman film? I watched it the other day. Some pretty good fight scenes.
