Tree surgeon dies during microlight flight to raise money for charity.
Alex Reid replied to benjii's topic in General chat
RIP, real shame to read stories like this one... -
nah i am a packed lunch kinda guy, but will stop and buy some goodies sometimes from the garage if we are passing but i tend to get all the crap from the supermarket and then wing it in my bag the night before at home... but to all of my convictions i do spend too much a day on smokes and too much by the weekend on ale! but the ale will stop as soon as i go back to work :D This whole not working malarkey is getting rather boaring, but when i am working if i do a full 5 day week like 8-6 then i am normally to outa steam by the weekend to go out spec with the trek i have to make to get to the trainstation in the morning to work with the climbing kit n my back feel like the SAS in training!

bollocks to that how can you say these places are worse now than they were before when they can now have hope of a stable government! and the generations to come can go to school and become professional people.

Unfortunatly it wasnt a case of someone droping some litter in the acident a whole family of six lost their lives and i was unfortunate enough to see their 10 week old baby girl die! i wish someone had dropped some litter but big thumbs up to all the crews involved! just a shame me and my mate didnt get there a few seconds eairler before it went on fire! My old man was an ambulance driver and it seems to be a case of timeing! i live in a town with i think its about 300,000 covered by two ambulances, so if you call and they are both busy then you either wait for one to cover from another station which can be as far away as preston liverpool or sometimes wigan and you can wait a long time specially sice the kids a&e has moved to ormskirk!

got to say they can be good and bad i think it all depends on your call sometimes it can take hours for police to arrive when i was working in the night club, but on the other had i was involved in an incident 13 months ago n i made the call to 999 and with 20 mins there were 42 emergency service vehicles on the scene was quite a shock to see so many so fast!

RIP to him and thoughts with his family at a difficult time i am sure

best way to get your kit back if pikey's rob it, is to get a jcb or some sort of machine that can dig and dig a huge hole infornt of their exit to their field or where ever they are living. They tend not to like it, my grandad was on a building site a securty manager years ago when a bunch of them came, caught them in the act and started to dig out their exit before they could leave the massive site soon got all their kit back n the nicked by the rozzers for good meaure!
-
yeh totally if you then go onto to add to the information yourself then its inst a problem and even if you do get texts sent to you etc etc re write them in your own owrds it wouldnt be a problem I shouldnt imagine!
