  1. When I took VR from the local water authority in 2010 I was on £14/hour plus all the perks, how's that stack up today for a tradesman.
  2. Us minions can cope with the mundane jobs, they'll pay for it mind. £20k don't cut it around here.
  3. Very few I'd have thought, good all rounders cost good money, but no doubt it's classed as a band C job... that's what the book says it pays.
  4. Leave it out will ya, I've not seen one in months!
  5. Give over, fell one tree in a wood because it's ddd. It just happens that tree had a Goshawk nest in it. listen to yourself.
  6. Keep it quiet bud, things being neglected keeps me in work.
  7. Some estates get blamed because they take the piss, before I go any further, I shoot and beat. you know like I know why that one tree in a wood was felled, go and bleat elsewhere.
  8. I wonder if it is a shooting estate?
  9. That's a bit like what I looked like when Bolam was teaching me to climb.
  10. That sounds so wrong these days.
  11. There's some classic road signs about, there's one not far from here that says Historical Village. I'm sure that should be Historic.
  12. When you deal with dickheads in roadworks day in, day out it makes you that way.
  13. Wise move, sometimes it's best to admit defeat.
  14. Are any of the pups for sale?
  15. You've driven past it and can't see what's going on?
  16. You can see where BT or whatever they are called now have put barriers around the duct chamber they've pumped out in the verge. I guess you never noticed that?
  17. I think you may have missed my point, if a coach driver, (Professional Driver) can get it wrong in roadworks I'm sure Mr Miggins can also. Temporary works are signed and guarded for the hard of thinking. If I had a quid for every time I heard, "I didn't see the signs, lights" I'd never need to work again.
  18. I think you might be surprised how daft some people can be, I was working on the M62 in Warrington many years ago when I slowed down, beacons on and indicating to pull into a Works Access... followed by a coach and a whole load of other vehicles playing at being sheep.
  19. What ya done that for?
  20. As long as you don't bring that barrel again.
