  1. wait if the UK shares a land with Europe, which they do, they will still enter through the south of Ireland and into the UK, unless border security is set up and that means a return to land borders between the north and south, leading to high prices on one side and cheaper prices on the other creating increased smuggling. also a lot of farms and even sheds will be technically split, IE one part in Britain and one part in Europe,

     

    another problem will they be less food in Britain if, you are not allowed to deal with Europe or high tariffs are in place, considering the large number of livestock from Ireland to Britain, there is still some uncertainty unless Ireland is given a special trading status.

     

     

    is there going to be another election in the north, leaving it vulnerable during the Br exit

  2. jez something wrong there they has to be a person either side of the road, a digger driver, 3 fellows looking at the whole, a tractor driver and tractor and 3 transits, minimum, over here just for cleaning alongside the side of a road.

     

    to fix a pothole, two lollypop men, one digger, two vans, and two men to look in the hole

    least thats the council near us.

     

    Rat infested ditch to remain as council can’t afford ‘Rolls Royce’ wall. apparently our council workers are supermen they can build a rolls royce of a wall for a cemetery. there was a wall with rats in it, the council wanted 35 grand but a local contractor would have done it for 13.5 grand. so the council was going to leave it

  3. Why not try and go to Hewdens directly...???

     

    'It's a disposal auction 'for a reason'...

     

    I used to work for Nixon Plant Hire, and many people would come straight to us to buy a machine, thus leaving the really bad stuff for the auctions...

     

    they are in receivership so you need to talk to earnest and young

     

    see they knew about it in november/december

    Dear Sir I write this note to inform you of my plight

    And at the time of writing I am not a pretty sight

    My body is all black and blue, my face a deathly gray

    I write this note to tell why Paddy's not at work today

     

    While working on the fourteenth floor, some bricks I had to clear

    And to throw them down from off the top seemed quite a good idea

    But the gaffer wasn't very pleased, he was an awful sod

    He said I had to cart them down the ladder in me hod.

     

    Well clearing all those bricks by hand, it seemed so very slow

    So I hoisted up a barrel and secured the rope below

    But in my haste to do the job, I was too blind to see

    That a barrel full of building bricks is heavier than me.

     

    So when I had untied the rope, the barrel fell like lead

    And clinging tightly to the rope I started up instead

    I took off like a rocket and to my dismay I found

    That half way up I met the bloody barrel coming down.

     

    Well the barrel broke my shoulder as on to the ground it sped

    And when I reached the top I banged the pulley with me head

    I held on tight, though numb with shock from this almighty blow

    And the barrel spilled out half its load fourteen floors below

     

    Now when those building bricks fell from the barrel to the floor

    I then outweighed the barrel so I started down once more

    I held on tightly to the rope as I flew to the ground

    And I landed on those building bricks that were scattered all

    around.

     

    Now as I lay there on the deck I thought I'd passed the worst

    But when the barrel reached the top, that's when the bottom burst

    A shower of bricks came down on me, I knew I had no hope

    In all of this confusion, I let go the bloody rope.

     

    The barrel being heavier, it started down once more

    And landed right on top of me as I lay on the floor

    It broke three ribs and my left arm, and I can only say

    That I hope you'll understand why Paddy's not at work today.
