  1. Your right and they is never any DANGER money but I still get excited as you never know what your going to find, usually a twig I kick out the road then head back home. Sent from my SM-G900F using Arbtalk mobile app
  2. Hi all was setting up road side this morning for some work to the rear of a property which is next door to a magistrates court when the security guard came and started quizing me. Asking me what i was up to, i explained. Then he said that i could not work as it would make to much noise. I said i will start and if its too much then i will stop. Luckily it was fine but it did pass through my mind is there a law actually stopping me? I remained polite and friendly after he came over a bit funny in the first place but the chap seemed decent enough
  3. I recon I have a better success rate in my work gear. Was chinos and a shirt but don't bother now Sent from my SM-G900F using Arbtalk mobile app
  4. Hey we all love it when it's been wet and the wind picks up... he says staring at the phone waiting for it to ring. Sent from my SM-G900F using Arbtalk mobile app
  5. I just can't bring me self to pay the price of the blades- the profit on them must be huge!! When the bank agrees to let me take out a mortgage I make a set of 4 blades last 6 months. But then again I do carry a beard so it's only a bit of detailing and neck chaf Sent from my SM-G900F using Arbtalk mobile app
  6. It's a twisted logic but we are living with the results. Only time will tell. Sent from my SM-G900F using Arbtalk mobile app
  7. Well at least this guy speaks up unlike our spineless representative. The special relationship- what's that mean? We will be the pig and America can be Cameron and serve us a portion. Sent from my SM-G900F using Arbtalk mobile app
  8. Even if they do find something it will be water off a ducks back. Some of the stuff that has come out already would have been enough for any candidate to go in to hiding. Sent from my SM-G900F using Arbtalk mobile app
  9. I did wonder. Would have been quicker going for the 'reg coats' (over centre gob)
  10. well there is something trump has in common with them straight away:lol:
  11. How do you know that the 'illegals' didn't vote for trump as well? Firstly I would like to make the point that more Americans are killed in mass gun shootings by home grown nut jobs and the occasional terrorist. So he could save more Americans by addressing that first. I struggle a lot now as the picture posted by the op could be fake news. Lots of stuff I see ruffles my feathers but it could be made up. I don't know What to believe these days. Everything we hear is biased. Sent from my SM-G900F using Arbtalk mobile app
  12. Yeah my battery makita was one of the cheaper ones with brushes Sent from my SM-G900F using Arbtalk mobile app
  13. Old bosch blue 4 1/2 which I got from my late father in law. Given it some stick and it just keeps going. Got a makita cordless one - pretty gutless but gets you out of a hole Sent from my SM-G900F using Arbtalk mobile app
  14. I think your employers liability should cover it. Remember they don't think as you do as they do not have the experience. Give him/ her a chance. So many tossers in this industry that get kicks out of putting down newcomers- we all started somewhere Sent from my SM-G900F using Arbtalk mobile app
  15. On the older machines you can slide the bearings move on the shaft so you can adjust the clearance like that Sent from my SM-G900F using Arbtalk mobile app
  16. Yeah this is probably largely true. There was the story, on here I thought, o a chap who pulled up on site to find a bunch of guys around his fowarder and they beat the guy to within an inch of his life. But if I get cleared out I would have nothing. so it would be worth a chance. When you got a family to support I couldn't think of anything worse Sent from my SM-G900F using Arbtalk mobile app
  17. As in get my head caved in. At least I would be able to wave my kit good bye Sent from my SM-G900F using Arbtalk mobile app
  18. Yeah I want to be alerted straight away so I can get up there and get my arse handed me Sent from my SM-G900F using Arbtalk mobile app
  19. Yeah my Missus is not too happy with the smell of petrol in the bedroom- especially after the new arrival. Think we will have to change to aspen! Sent from my SM-G900F using Arbtalk mobile app
  20. Needs must- we have all been their Sent from my SM-G900F using Arbtalk mobile app
  21. I will second what rosey Web said. Used spectrum plant for timber wolf bits. Super fast delivery and very helpful on the phone. Great website as well. Sent from my SM-G900F using Arbtalk mobile app
  22. Well it's no bother getting it welded up. Sent from my SM-G900F using Arbtalk mobile app
  23. Even better. Either way I won't be buying one or the other Sent from my SM-G900F using Arbtalk mobile app
  24. I thought water drips off the back of the cab on the nav and on to the chassis and then it would snap. Sent from my SM-G900F using Arbtalk mobile app
  25. 700 a man I have got CSCS white card and gold supervisor liss card. I think it cost me under 250. But rarely do I get asked for my supervisor card- waste of time going for the extra test. Does pee me off when you go the EXTRA mile to do things by the book and then another company without can do the same job. I want to turn up and get a slap on the back for being such a good chap.
