  1. I'm not sure if something like this would do. Black Silicone Rubber Hose End Blanking Cover Caps Cap Heat Resist 2.8~60.5mm WWW.EBAY.CO.UK Material: Silicone Rubber. Silicone rubber is a soft and elastic material safe,non-toxic, with good sealing type, high and...
  2. Most motorway services just aren't set up for hgv drivers, and parking a truck outside McD's when you need a dump isn't an option. The money has had to change, our kids recent pay rise just pushed him over £50k for three sixteen hour shifts a week, (two drivers). I do dispute the lack of European drivers though, our kid tells me that tons of them that he knows left and went to drive, mainly, in Germany or went back to their own countries.
  3. Him and J must be busy at the moment.
  4. Got ya, the thing is with people like the bloke I mentioned here is (I think) is they don't want to learn. There is no exscuse for him, there is a lady in the village who teaches trailers who stores here unit behind his Caravan.

  5. I see your point but I don't want to have to refresh another ticket every few years because other people can't reverse a trailer. Many people can't reverse a car, that doesn't mean we should all have to refresh our driving licenses imo.
  6. Yes, folk who currently have a license, I don't think we should have a cbt style test/refresher. I have to refresh enough tickets for work. People who know they can't reverse a Caravan should get some training through the clubs that most of them are members of. There are trailer trainers that go to club sites and give lessons.
  7. Yeah an advert popped up on my Facebook the other day, join us and we'll give you a £1k.
  8. Massive shortage of drivers, my brother is a hgv driver about 3 weeks ago he got a memo at work telling him he'd just had a 12% pay rise... he hadn't asked for a rise! They are desperate to keep hold of the drivers they've got.
  9. Tried it mate and got a flat refusal, I could see they were struggling so I offered to reverse it in for them. He snapped a NO at me so I did one, only to watch them unhitch it and push it in... Ya can't help some folk.
  10. Correct, where I live there are about 20 caravans stored here. The amount of people who can't reverse them back in there space when they return from holiday is amazing.
  11. Great innit. Trump signs a deal, Biden sticks with it and we all have to pull out.
  12. Working 'on the lump' meant getting paid as a subby but not paying any tax. Site lads shot themselves in the foot on that one... when CIS was introduced.
  13. Yeah, but it's been similar here in East Anglia today. We couldn't be much further apart East to West.
  14. What, a political group conning folk out of their money. Whatever next.
  15. Apart from that, Devon is a lovely place.
  16. I occasionally called a lass,(electrician) when I worked on the water, if the customer wouldn't let her use the loo indoors, it was, "Turn your back, and keep your eye out, Egg"..
  17. That's probably because there wasn't sites full of pissed up Irish lads, there was lads from all over, but I don't remember many of them being pissed on site.
  18. S'why exhausts rot out before the rest of a vehicle.
  19. Sounds a bit like Max Quarterman.
  20. What did Mrs Miggins have to say about her pussy?
  21. Wait till they do find the Westeners. According to the news Kabul airport is overrun with people trying to get out. Shouldn't 'we' be sending planes in to get 'our' people out?
  22. Him and our own clown should hang their heads in shame.
  23. Kabul taken then, I thought they said it wouldn't happen.
  24. First post with company name and number all over it, we both should have given it a swerve?
  25. Before anyone starts, they were the Taliban back then, just under a different name. They fought the Russians, many of the Taliban leaders now were fighting then. 1981: Thatcher tells Afghan fundamentalists “The hearts of the free world are with you” – SKWAWKBOX SKWAWKBOX.ORG As UK and other western citizens flee Afghanistan and the UK government denies asylum on racist grounds to...
