  1. Nah, I don’t play with the big boys.
  2. Classic Newton, classic.
  3. Most would accept taking drugs on site is a no go, not ever, but how far do you push it? I got chucked because I shared a joint at a funeral, piss tested on the job and lead down to the car park , was I off my head on site, was I feck!

    Welding

    I’ve got a camper that needs some welding around the gutter rail, the bloke who did the cills and wheel arches isn’t happy doing the gutter due to the insulation catching fire, it won’t! I’ve been down this route before with my the living van, no one wants to touch it. Are there any decent welders out there that can do the job? Don’t mind travelling.
  5. Nope, free to stay if you use the pub.
  6. Camped out in my new/old camper this week in the Peak District, £5.50 for a pint of Guinness and a bowl of stew n bread rolll.,does it come any cheaper?
  7. I bought a lil ol’ camper last week, the quotes I was getting were ridiculous. I ended up with a decent quote from A-Plan, now Howden insurance using their Thatcham office. Don’t know what they are like for paying out should it be needed mind.

    HS2 Over

    It doesn’t matter the amount, I copped a tax bill yesterday, not a massive amount but it fecks me right off paying it when I see the waste of OUR money.
  9. That’s a blast from the past, our middle kid had a stint selling them. It didn’t last long…
  10. Pressure washer, I’d go for a secondhand Honda with a decent pump before I’d buy Karcher. Couple of hundred quid should buy a decent little washer for your needs.
  11. On site work the industrial cleaners used Numatic wet & dry vacuum cleaners. No idea on price.
  12. Where’s Old Oak Common? I’ve worked London for many years and never been there, doubt many Londoners have either,,shambles that was supposed to terminate at Euston?
  13. Probably because the people who own part of the ground gave his garden bridge the royal ‘feck orf.
  14. The question is, why didn’t they?
  15. My thoughts exactly, trying to blame a handful of protesters for a multimillion overspend is stupendous. It’s the same with any big project in this country. Look at Boris’ garden bridge, was it near on £60 million for a bridge that could never go ahead, the proposed site for one of the piers was never for sale, and this was made clear from the outset.
  16. Evening Matty, I don’t know if it’s right. It was posted on a FB page by someone local to the area.
  17. The single rear wheels would put me off. I guess it depends on what work you do and where you need to get the van in/out of.
  18. I’ve just been reading elsewhere that this kid who’s alleged to have done this didn’t fell it, apparently he damaged it and a tree surgeon felled it to make it safe at the request of the council. Don’t know if that’s correct or not. Little tw@t still needs a slap if he did damage it mind.
  19. Build things on schedule and on budget. HS2 (to mention one) is a shambles that’s massively over budget and overdue. Discuss…
  20. Some sad people about by the sounds of it. I bought a place next to the canal because I enjoy seeing the boats. I for one wouldn’t be reporting someone for keeping warm.
  21. What a croc! Who’s going to police it?… The article says they will rely on homeowners to report smoke, good luck with that. And narrowboats are measured in feet not meters.
