Pork steaks today

Imagine coming out of that door and strolling left without paying attention

[Time blindness?]

I'm sure I'd be out of a job pretty quickly if I tried that caper

 

Boss: so Jon, why did you f**k up the rail network by leaving a train out on the mainline for 3 hours?

 

Me: I'm time-blind boss.

 

Boss: f**k off you dickhead.

My last speed awareness course to avoid 3 points was after being clocked doing eighty mph on A1M at 04:40 after leaving home early and wanting to be on site 1st thing down the country. OK, I was exceeding the speed limit even though the traffic was very light. The accepted way of driving on motorways now during the day seems to be everyone driving bumper to bumper. Should they not be penalising that?

Yes, they should get a bollocking for that. 

 ....... the amount of those wankers that are up my arse when I'm over taking in lane 3 really pisses me off. If I'm in my car or work van alone I properly stab the brakes on those twats - I'll happily go from 90 to 20mph if someone is being a knob

In the 80s it would have been a pat on the arse and "good girl"

Orange juice and a flask of coffee for me tonight - I'm on shift until 07:30 tomorrow.

Slow roasted lamb in garlic, rosemary and red wine - the missus cooking today 

 

 

[What rifle is this stock off or is it a custom stock but for what rifle]

........... it could be a modified AGS PCR rifle stock.

[What rifle is this stock off or is it a custom stock but for what rifle]

It's the one that Porky Yorky adapted to fit the Chinese XS type rifles.

 ......... I can't remember what it's originally from

 

There will be loads of info on the UK Chinese airgun forum - he was on there a lot before he passed away.

[Got sick of sitting around]

They both look good mate.

what are those gloves you got on in the last pic, Im always after decent gloves

They're ok mate - they protect the back of your knuckles pretty well but, they wear out at the palm in a week if you're heavy handed.

 

I'm on nights in Newport all week if you want to come and grab a pair

Good shift tonight - everything went well and I got all of my trains in and away a little early

 

Apparently that is the longest railway gantry in the country - I have no idea if that's true, it's what one of our lads told me. It supports the overhead power lines outside the yard.

 

The Pheasant berries have ripened a bit early - they're quite nice, they taste like caramel. 

 

And, I found out that hedgehogs can get the hump

.......... this little one was in the middle of one of the tracks - I think he was too small to climb out over the rail.

He was making a hissing sound when I got near him and, every time I touched him he made a quick grunting sound and pushed his spikes towards my hand. I put him on open ground so that he can feck off in safety and be grumpy somewhere else

Homemade Lasagne before I head off for my night shift

 

[How's your summer?]

A bit of a mixed bag here - I keep getting rained on when I'm out working on warm nights. I don't mind - it is what it is.

 

The crab apples and conkers seem to be early.

 

I'm seeing the days get shorter - hopefully we'll have a good Indian summer

10 of us round to mum and dad's for Sunday dinner today - it wasn't planned but, it just ended up that way. Mum loved it. We took the big table outside and had roast beef in the sunshine with her homemade gravy

 

My brothers ex hates guns and anything else that she doesn't agree with

A couple of years ago I gave my nieces catapults and a big bag of clay balls. Today I got them having a go on an airgun - they loved it so, I left it round there when I left for them to keep using

 

Their dog's knocking on a bit now but, he enjoyed half of my ice cream. 

 

That was a good day

My aunt and uncle still live in Hylton Castle,as you head south over the A19 bridge look left,that’s the village I was dragged up,the street is long since demolished and a decent’ish housing estate replaces what was once to be honest a slum area for dysfunctional families.

No, not dragged up mate - those places left some us of us behind, it gave some us the drive to move on - Some of us have have done well. Good on you

[Veiw from your office]

That's going to be a nice place to live when you get the houses up

[What's cooking?]

I enjoyed that

 

[On the canals now]

They're a bit different to our canals mate
