  1. @doobin 600 quid a day for a brickie, knock that down if it's not straight runs, but... it's grim up north. '£600 a day is barely going to get lads through the gate': What the 'insane' demand for brickies and materials means for Manchester's building boom - Manchester Evening News WWW.MANCHESTEREVENINGNEWS.CO.UK The city centre is set for another slew of new residential towers, office revamps and venues, but the construction...
  2. If it was anything serious he'd have been all over it by now, scouser or not. Just a bayonet and stock fencing by the sounds of it.
  3. I bet you're well chuffed to hear that, Bolam.
  4. I find that hard to believe, the internal combustion engine hadn't been invented then...
  5. There isn't a shortage of work up North. Yes there is a problem, selling off the housing stock and not replacing it was the start of it IMO.
  6. If it's in or around London it's going to be many hundreds of thousands, a lot less in Barnsley. If people can't afford a house down south, like me, move north like I'll have to if I want to buy another house.
  7. Correct it is doable for youngsters, my nephew and his partner moved into their first home yesterday. Only his wage due to his partner going back to uni to do a masters, as you say he stopped going out with his mates every night, missed holidays abroad with the lads and kept hold of his old car. He's got there mind. I also remember the interest rates in the 80's, virtually everyone I knew was just hanging on. The other thing these days is, everyone thinks they should have a 5 bed pitch with a yard, or a shiny new gaff on the new development, no way do they want to start with a terraced house in the back streets of town.
  8. Don't prod it then... Sorry mate, I've had most things, but not a hernia. Useless again.
  9. I can tell you where that scooter is (at 2 mins in the clip), it's in a garage just outside Sudbury, Suffolk.
  10. Why did you ship out to the IoW?
  11. You reminded me of this song.
  12. Love it, and the fact you can still hide a static without being hassled.
  13. Ya wanna visit The Fens.
  14. Post them up. This is a 2021 £80k+the extras Motorhome. You can't open the cutlery draw without opening the habitation door.
  15. Dom Kiddy, and yes, for a young'un I think he'll be fine. I've been in with him for about an hour and he's getting the hang of it.
  16. Yeah, it's his first year to be fair. I'll get in the tractor behind him to (hopefully) give him a bit of confidence.
  17. First day here, we've got a young lad with us, 13, not a bad driver but he's slowing things down because he won't keep rolling while the combine is unloading. I'm going round to jump in with him to speed things up, the bloke who owns the place is going to jump on the second tractor.
  18. You probably know the lad on the combine, Ant Barnes?
  19. We're rolling.
  20. I'll give it a miss if you don't mind.
  21. Don't start him about fat birds he'll be on my case.
  22. I've a brother who says this all the time, he's back in the UK for now.
  23. K'in hell trig, get your toys in, it was my mistake that I pointed out.
