Road crossings done, all ducting and cables in and cold lay in, you better believe they are getting charged for a full day, I’ve just been asked to do a concrete path at a church so that will be my week finished off, if I can get concrete booked in for Friday
-
The small stuff is cheap to hire as well, theres a little company I use and I can have a mini digger for about £120 for the day and they drop it off and pick it back up, you don’t need to worry about anything going wrong or it getting robbed because it’s all on hire company, you need to be using them all the time if you own them so they pay for themselves, that little 1.8 that he’s got is only about 5 year old and he paid about 30k for it, the 8T is about 15 years old and he paid 65k when it was new but that is charged out for digger and driver £500 a day and the customer has to pay the transp

Gate posts in, ended having to hand dig one because we came across the electric main, nightmare, never go home until half 7, back tomorrow to put the ducting and cables in
-
The lad who I do 70% of my work with ( him in the hole ) owns the little 1.8 that we had with us today and an 8T, if we need dumpers or rollers we hire them
-
I’ve decided to go back to work today, electric gates at a school in Durham, something you don’t see every day, my mate in a hole with a spade in his hands
-
Saag chicken tonight, I left the chilli paste out and I think it was better for it, plenty of spice but without the heat
-
Chicken dinner today
-
Butter baked cod topped with panko breadcrumbs, hasselback spuds and tender stem, the gap at the bottom of the plate is for the homemade mayo that I’d forgotten about until I was halfway through eating it
-
I did a pork stroganoff tonight with the leftover roast pork from yesterday
-
Mine are spot on and they were only about £130, I wouldn’t say they are as good as Swarovski but I had a £400 pair of Lica and they are better than them
-
Yes, 10x is a bit more mag but you get a bigger field of view from 8x, so if I know where something is then 10x is better but if I’m looking over an area 8x is better because I can see more of where I’m looking if you want 10x have a look at vortex diamondback, my mate has them and they are excellent
-
Yeah, for what I use them for, mainly in forestry blocks on the rides or on smallish fields 8’s are better for me
-
Nice to have an office like this, there’s a big fire on the moors behind me, day 3 and it’s still burning
-
I’ve had loads, Lica, Swarovski, but all I will have now are vortex, just a general pair, I’d go for something like 8x42, I’m onto my third pair of vortex crossfire, they are really good, cheap and have a lifetime warranty, I’ve broken two pairs ( my own fault) and sent them to them and they sent me a new pair
-
Done a roast pork joint today, load of rosemary, thyme, garlic, black pepper and salt, low and slow in the oven, nice
-
They only go as fast as you make them, Mrs Stav has driven all my cars, I used to give her driving lessons in my 93 RS2000, when she past her test I put her on my insurance so she could drive my new A4 and a year later my discovery because she couldn’t afford to insure cars like that being a new driver, she’s now a confident driver no matter how big or fast it is, she drives a new Audi S3 Vorsprung now and although she just tootles around in it she knows how to drive it if some little chav try’s their look at the lights
-
I was on north York moor at about one this afternoon it was 32 degrees, no breeze just flies
-
I did thyme butter baked cod with colcannon mash, tender stem ( that had a couple of minutes in the pan that the fish was cooked in ) and a cream and white wine sauce, it was bloody lovely
-
Absolute belter that my missus is going to see them in September, she got two tickets and thought I’d go with her, No Ta, too many people for me, so she’s taking her mate for a 3 day mini break to London, so I’ve got a 3 day mini break at home ( bliss )
-
View from my office today, servicing my van on my drive, old school
-
For me tonight I just chucked a load of stuff in a pan, onion, tomato, peppers, courgettes, garlic, chorizo, chicken, wine and had it with some rice for her, chicken and leek with a creamy sauce, rice and broccoli
-
It was bad around here, glue and lighter gas, I had a mate who was a few years older than me that was bang at it and it really fu*ked him up, it never interested me, I don’t even think I tried it, I’ve used every other drug that you could get hold of illegal or prescription in the 90’s apart from smack and that’s only because another mate gave me a really good reason not too, he said “ you will love it and it will completely fu*k your life up” so I never tried it
-
Most of our prescription use was normally towards the end of the after party in some flat that wouldn’t look out of place in Trainspotting probably around a Sunday lunch time because we needed to get some sleep because we had graft on Monday and needed to make a few quid so we could start again the following Friday
-
Temgesics were quality ( I say that knowing I wouldn’t touch the stuff now ) we used to crush them up and snort them, they were massive in jail, my mates mam used to take them in for him on visits, another big one was zimovane ( think it’s call zopiclone now ) sleeping pills, few of them with some wizz, ones trying to put you to sleep, the other is keeping you awake
-
Injecting, it was mainly people older than me that were doing it, the Evo Stick lads, they gave up the glue, started injecting wizz them most moved on to the smack
