  1. thieving scum, camp out, beat the **** out of them.
  2. Bloody Brilliant !!!!!!!!!
  3. I agree, i am also useless at all this 'text speak', owt from barnsley i can understand, owt else, not a chance. So people, please speak (or write ) in barnsley speak. thanks. lol
  4. I know how you feel lorry, i have two young girls (5 & 7), i'm murdererly protective of them now, god knows what i'll be like when they're older.
  5. Working as a chippie (joiner) on building sites, we use the axe for many applications, imo the axe and timber should be looked upon as an old married couple, wheres theres one you will surely find the other.
  6. As well as tacho laws, dont forget about the operators licence side of things, servicing, defect reporting, operator centre, then you have the cpc exams ( certificate of professional competence) for both management and driver. ( 2 differernt courses). To be brutally honest, transport law is a nightmare, i used to work in transport and it was a nightmare keeping everything running legal, but for some reason i still keep up to date with it all, but then again always fancied my own 7.5t flatback.
  7. My mate does his on computer. You can get a program that does it for you, you design it the print it out on some special paper then iron it onto your t shirt apparrently. lasts a while as well.
  8. Must agree wi littletree, get some containers on there, charge them out, makes things look tidier and more money for you. People always pay more for secure storage.
  9. No need to get stuck behind wagons / tractors n trailers in that thing, just drive underneath 'em.
  10. Here Here, wish i got out and about more in my youth before the wives and kids came along.
  11. Stick to your principles at all times, never back down to a bully. I've walked many a time b4 getting into dodgy dealings.
  12. I use the dremel attatchments most of the time and find it ok for what i need. Must admit tho' , i do like the look of the machine mart grinder, been thinking about one of those for ages.
  13. why not have a look at the makita range. some decent stuff at £300 mark.
  14. yep, they have them in b&q barnsley aswell.
  15. I was once fitting a new kitchen for a mate of mine, whilst his old mother was in the house, his mother is a lovable old woman who just happens to be a cat lover. My mate passed me a cuppa, and just as i was taking a big gulp of tea his mother piped up ' would you like to see my pussy ' cue me running out of the kitchen, whilst my mate was in histericks, and his mother asking if i didnt like his tea. never laughed as much since.
  16. Carnt help you with a blower, but i hope you catch the theiving scum that broke into your truck.
  17. i always say that if someone wants you to price up a job in such a way that it is not the norm, and / or is suspect, then walk away. Better to find other work than get ripped off. Been ripped off once too often to take the risks now.
  18. as far as i'm aware there is no restricted licence for mileage, just for your own goods as previousley stated. just checked the fta yearbook and there is nothing in there about restricted milaege.
  19. Hey, i've got a citreon c15 and they are completely bombproof. no abs or p/steering tho, but they are good workhorses. 1.9d engine, pull a trailer all day long. Berlingo's are the same as well. Renault Kangoo have either a 1.9d or 1.5d, the 1.5d has just as much power as the 1.9, the 1.5 is the newer ,cleaner engine and replaced the1.9 i think. the kangoo is also available with 4 wheel drive, i think it was called the 'trekker'. Fiat doblo is the biggest of them, but it is a fiat.
  20. TBH i think £30 ph is a good deal, nice steady work. If your a one man band, its an ideal way of extra income.
  21. Hasn't Tanaka now been bought out by and rebranded Hitatchi ? Screwfix are now selling them, look pretty decent.
  22. All the best pal, thanks for the reminder.
  23. totally agree, when i worked in a transport office, and went into banks (or even shops), got spoke to and treated very well, swapped jobs for buildings/driving, go into same places but with scruffs on, and get treated like scum.
  24. When i was a naive apprentice on buildings, i got asked to lay on the floor, for some strange reason i did, and promptly got nailed to the floor and left, for the gaffer to find me. ' B@"+%Ds'
  25. cheers for the reply guys.
