  1. I have. I came across a piece of diced carrot but manfully ploughed on. Then I encountered a pea, and began to feel queasy. It was finding a lump of chewed ham that finished me. "I think I'm going to be sick!" She said "That's what the last bloke said....".
  2. These big trucks seem incredible value compared to 3.5 tonners. Do you need to eat Yorkies and regularly murder prostitutes to buy one?
  3. Hahahaha! Got that t-shirt mate! Too many to mention, but a few years back me and my groundie kept singing 'We gotta get out of this place' by The Animals on a job because it was on the radio as we drove in. The customer kept giving us hacky looks and I eventually twigged and explained to him that it in no way reflected on him or the job! We've worked for him a few times since, and all three of us burst into it at random intervals.
  4. I've got the same problem mate, but the underrails are totally shot on mine as well. Gong to need a totally rebuilt tray.
  5. Have you bought a Discovery then?
  6. Are you going to make moonshine Tom?
  7. Man she was a fair lump! Well done for busting that in a day.
  8. Aahhh, the GRCS word! I'd be happy to bung on £50 on top of day rate for certain jobs, but it's a big investment. You know your market better than anyone mate.
  9. I think it should have been made a feature of the central reservation so thousands of motorists could have appreciated it..... Seriously, looks like a cracking old stager, and I'm glad it's been spared.
  10. Every little helps, but I'd be slightly wary of working for firms who don't have their own kit. Inexperienced groundies running ropes can make for a very bad day at the office.
  11. I reckon that was speeded up. Corsican?
  12. You're well suited then? 😀
  13. John and Tom are having a competition to see who can hit 20 stone first. Just jealous lads, top kit, please keep the pics and vids coming. Crazy quick work on the ash John.
  14. Hahaha! Good luck with finding the right course mate. As Matty says I'm sure there'll be something out there for you. Sorry I can't help, but if you make it over to any shows I'll buy you a beer for top acceptance of my flippant comment!
  15. You just need a beard and a checky shirt mate.
  16. Great looking dogs Stevie. What's the temperment like?
  17. The state of my bank account is a fairly reliable indicator. If it drops under £200 the tree is clearly structurally compromised.
  18. You long haired dudes have to compensate somehow mate.
