Lorry thompson

There's something magical about deer I used to hunt a lot when I was younger with my lurcher and used to know good little spots where I could watch deer stoats and kestrels etc kept me out of trouble (well most of the time)

We done a job a bit ago for 550 days work just taking some hedging out when I asked if he'd had another price he said your in for a shock 3500 I couldn't believe it don't know where that price came from the bloke was a doctor so had plenty coin think it must have been a company with too much on who just tries their luck like someone said earlier wish the bloke told me other price I would of said il do it half that ha

I just tell them I'm a gypsy works everytime

Nowt wrong with the big red rupe spent my childhood on a 1983 trike wish I could buy her back bet it's still running. Like the set up theocus fancy it me self would invent jobs to use it for the crack ha

I'm with you mate rather employ a lad with a bit less skill but with good attitude and not got his own head stuck up his back end

If everyone slaggin arb wages off and bigging tescos up goes and works for tescos we'll all be happy. I wouldn't be so cocky slagging people off working for low wages either they were making more while you were sat on your backside feeling sorry for yourself

Damn I phone sent it late ha

Trentham?

I know some good lads around rugely/Stafford area if that's any good to you mate said he's got plenty in

Business link are good mate if they can't help you they would probably point you in the right direction

That's great cheers Paul will get Simon to look into them all paperwork is a bit of a pain sometimes but it's what wins the work now it seems and keeping safe can't do any harm either thanks again

Haha I'm probably on my last one now cheers mate

Been onthere too mate cheers I used to work for a big firm and they used to get posts through of recent accidents etc new regs for maintenance changes in torque settings on chipper blades etc suppose them big firms can afford to pay someone to research this stuff we probably doing enough anyway just the more advice we get the better cheers lads

Cheers mesterh appreciate it, we doin that Borders cheers mate just wondered how best to keep up to date seems this stuff wins work these days

I know had a look about but it's hard to find we just want to keep these records and look as though we are doing our bit along with all the maintenance records etc

We are a recent set up and my brother has the lovely job of being our health and safety man basically cos he's been on a h & s course and has the certificate I'm just wondering if any of you lads know of the best places/sites where we can get good info and keep up to date on new regulations/gear and accidents and accident statistics. We want to keep up to date with this side of things and any good advice is very welcome

These do my head in these people the last one just got me there to feel important I think telling me I'm way out he was about thirty odd stone and obviously never worked a day in his life he wanted me to take a team to his house and work all day for about 40 quid. He then just bored me about his finches and parrots which us hard working lads are paying for I could of smacked him haha but I politely left I still follow every job up though the one that asked a price over the phone before that earned us just under a grand for the day

Cheers mark glad you liked it I'd still love loads of too though haha

That's me nackered then ad we havin twins soon ha I love spaniels dean well any hunting dog really always had lurchers lost my bitch last year broke me heart so I wanna get something different if I get a lurcher itl feel wrong like I'm cheating haha your right about the exerscise mate I wouldn't have a dog unless I could excerxise it properly they love it the way I saw it when I took the lurcher out coursing it was like us havin a night out she loved it

Good pic least the dogs are happy mate I'm the same though just a hangover then on to a christening do me godfather bit and some more drinking. Fancy a couple of spaniels me sel when the babies are a bit older is it true having too calms them down a bit cos we had one spaniel and it was mental

Cheers for your comments lads I'd had a couple of cans my self which was I was saying this personal stuff because I laughed when ad said he was on all that money but is now happier but then thought about my situation and I feel the same. I came on here to learn new things cos I've started my own business so had to stay calm in my posts last night so I don't get kicked off when you talk about things close to u people shouldn't be sarcastic I'd like to meet dangerous brian and discuss these issues I think he's only dangerous to himself with his mouth Stephen when you said he's as dangerous as a shag pile carpet I laughed my back off my lass did too the twins were doin some bouncing in her belly ha but less of that this is way off the thread and I hope brodie gets some good graft cos good lads deserve it I been wondering lately if the recession and government cuts will affect us I hope it's like the good old days where the hard workers are rich

My mate had it in one hand so when he cut the tendon in the other had them both operated on at the same time, the doctor sat his wife down first and explained shed be wiping up after him if you know what I mean he was on a curry ban for a bit joking aside though if iremember he recovered quite quick sorry I can't remember exact time scale
