We have already handed over £4bn+ to these folks and nothing has even started, now I hear that management are paying themselves six figure salaries. What's the betting that it will end up double the £56bn budget, and no one is going to be held responsible? To quote a Mr D Cameron "we are all in this together"

sorry to correct you but they have started. by digging a £160000 newt pond about the size of my lawn ' They really cracking on this end

I know where you are but it tickled me to 'spot' your favourite (correct) rant.

F4cking footpath walkers leaving gates open where they’re NOT supposed to f4cking well be! Mixed 3 lots of cattle together from 6month calves and cows to 3week cows and calves and a bunch of scruffs that I could really have done with not getting mixed up because they’re scruffs and nondoers.

They want access then they should be more f4cking responsible!

d**kheads. ...pah censored....... c0ckheads!

Rant over.

The quality assurance man is coming tomorrow. I haven't done my rat poison impact assessment yet as well as a few other very tedious things. Likewise the Mrs is back teaching tomorrow.

So we went to the garden centre and had huge pieces of cake to cheer ourselves up. And we bought a bird feeder as an impulse buy.

I'll do the rat assessment later.

...or something good, like an M5.

Do you think a m5 could handle a Barra or 2JZ repower?

This is what the badge should look like

I do, too. I spent a lot of my childhood kicking around in rally service areas or watching the LIVE results roll in on Ceefax. My father's best result on the RAC was in a Saff, too

Had a 2WD Saff once, animal of a thing.

I’m not a saloon car fan really, hot hatches were my thing, well mainly 205s, but those Saff Cosworths were a very good looking saloon car for their day, and one of the few occasions when turning a hatchback into a saloon resulted in a better looking car!

Graindex. They used to email you up to date prices per ton for grain around the country. Very useful.
Now they waffle on about " price spread ", " bullish / bearish markets ". Not useful.

 

[Kiwi Pete]

Would be dandy if you had bears and bulls to market?

Happened to pass Paxtons at Northallerton today. Management have decided to do a full stocktake.
There was a wagon load of front weights and loadall headstocks going back up to main depot at Durham.
They'd decided to make stocktake easier by weighing in all the broken headstocks, front weight bolsters, second hand brackets and various other treasures.
I almost cried.

See how many end up on eBay in the coming weeks. Staff have light fingers when good stuff gets thrown in skips!
