I'm glad you are aware of how it happened. I'm actually not, it fascinates me, how they got a whole country to go along with it. By the way, I was offering what I thought wasGL and eggs opinion. I might not be right
-
Not when there's no need
-
I think what eggs is saying and GL is the language being used is not dissimilar. 1930s Germany didn't wake up one morning and decide to exterminate the Jewish population. There was a campaign over many years to get the majority of the population to hate a sector. And only when they assessed they had the majority on their side, did they start to ramp things up

So doesn't that show its the bbc that has the problem with free speech?
-
He has a bbc contract. Again, I don't know if it was broken. Just highlighting the inconsistencies
-
You're making my point for me now
-
I'm not a big fan of him myself, but ask yourself, why wasn't Alan Sugar treated the same for his Corbyn/Hitler tweet?
-
I think it is about gagging him. He'd be back on the telly tonight if he agrees to stop tweeting about a selective subjects. As for his contract, I wouldn't know if he's broken it. If he has, why don't they let him go?
-
This is not really to do with small boats, whatever your view on them is. It's about free speech. And a government backed BBC trying to stifle it.

Not very! Closest I've been to the truck today

Depends on the driveway surface material . Most natural stone, york/Indian are absorbant. Think you're knackered if it's that type. Whatever surface deal with it asap. I put sheets down on natural stone patios. The oil flicking off the chain can make a mess
-
Can't you make a headband out of them?
-
You'll find more in the 'House of Commons'
-
If you have been over tightening the chain the evidence will be there on the sprocket. (Grooves worn). All chains stretch though, cheaper ones more so. Changing to a different brand is doable, but make sure everything matches, not just drive links. Probably best taking it somewhere initially, if you're not familiar with sizing

Boards and sheets are useful. We use boards on wet grass as well occasionally. For the clients that expect you to dismantle a 50 ft tree and levitate out of the garden without touching anything. Which makes me wonder about this post. With the op having not seen the damage, it may be a something of nothing

Ash has got the best chance of any species

Having a quick read through the thread I can't work out whether you are employed or subbing now. Are you employed, with any benefits?
-
What was the advice? Get a new truck?
-
Arb is a very small percentage of usage for 3.5 trucks
-
I've come across plenty of poor managers in my time, and that was their response if you ever raised objection, or offered an alternative way of doing something. It's not really the answer, you're just leaving a shit situation for someone else
-
True. I'm not going to try and hide it. It's a decent pension. It's changed in recent years. I'm lucky
-
Sadly, when I joined, late 80's, I would've recommended the job to anyone, not now. As with all public services, there has been a slow erosion of pay and conditions for, I would say the last 15 years. Recent events have just been the straw that has broken the camels back. It's hard for everyone at the minute. But if you are a union member of a large organisation withdrawing your labour can be the only way of getting your voice heard. Believe me, strikes aren't fun, the minute you go on strike you've lost. It's a failure on both sides. No one wants it and the only way to resolve is to talk. And at the moment, that's not happening

I was in the fire service for 31 years. I receive a pension from that. (Having contributed on average 14% of my wage) into it. I have also had my own business. I suppose you are hoping to put me in check mate now?
