The warning came as a Lincolnshire-based I was only pointing out what some other land based sectors were offering to workers, in comparison to your £15/hr statement
  2. I wasn’t and thought it was a gimmick to attract people in Just reporting what I had heard, from the industry I doubt the piece target is achievable But it puts wage pressure in Agric & aboriculture/forestry sectors, for the wrong reasons
  3. Lincs veg growers are offering £30/hr if the pickers can achieve their piece work targets, aren’t they ?

Is there a protocol we should follow - re professional users o18 only can enter? Looking for guidance and opinion from yourselves
  10. Most of the time you'll not have a problem I do 60 on A roads in my Invincible and pass quite a few Scamera Vans
  11. NFU reduced their premium at renewal by £100 per vehicle last month (all insured separately) Business ins came down House Ins came down too Happy days Phoned up this week to add my just turned 17 yo lad onto the wife's car and they'll charge a few hundred to add him as a accompanied learner Great service - the best
