  1. They are a cracking company to deal with, we won’t use anyone else for aggregates and concrete if we can help it, the belt mixer lad has been with them for 20 years that I know of and nothing is ever a problem for him, he had a full day booked in on Friday and still went back and reloaded when we were short even though it was our fault not working out the right amount
  2. Quick spaghetti bolognaise tonight, Mrs Stav dropped off at her mates 60th and out in a field. All before 9
  3. Don’t, I’ve had him on the phone moaning because it’s worked out at 3 trench blocks when he wanted 1, I’ve had to point the tit in the direction off his plans that state that his foundation has to be 900 below finished floor, so he could of had 1 trench block but it would of been about another 8 cube of concrete to get the depth of the foundation
  4. Some kind of chicken and mushroom thing tonight, it was very nice, I’m not sure I could make it again because I probably couldn’t remember what I put in it
  5. He went and reloaded, put another 2 hours on the job but at least it’s in ready for the bricky’s on Monday
  6. Concrete going in, job and knock today so the mixer lad better have quick turnaround
  7. Bloody lovely is what I’d call that
  8. Ready for concrete tomorrow morning, took his wall down for him as a little freebee
  9. Homemade lasagna with garlic and thyme wedges and a pepper and red onion salad
  10. Almost dug out, I’ve just seen the bill for the grab wagons, £3800 if we use all of what’s booked in for tomorrow he’s asked us to put the water and drainage in as well, so it looks like I’ll be having another week here once the bricky’s have got the trench blocks in
  11. Another day in Middlesbroughstan and all the freaks are out today, the community service bus has more people on it than the town busses
  12. Butter baked cod loin with the colcannon mash again tonight
  13. Here’s one for the building lads, building control came out and said he wants a 500 under mine, now you can see how old the building is because its foundation is two course of bricks onto clay, I said, why do I need to take my foundation under the old building, when that hasn’t got a concrete foundation? This is a stand alone extension, all that will be holding them together is wall starters like any new extension, he didn’t give me an answer so I just had to hand dig it
  14. How many idiots does it take to work out a foundation plan, 3 by the looks of it, hope we’ve worked it out right
  15. Even though I only live 15 minutes from here it’s like being in a different country, the lad who owns said this morning when he go here there was two asleep in the doorway out the back, they have only had it 6 weeks and it’s been broken into 4 times, he’s going to have to have 24 hour security once they start putting it back together
  16. Chicken Bhuna Masala tonight, school night curry, no chance of burning myself a new arsehole on the site tomorrow with this one
  17. Well, I really don’t want to spend the full week here, all I’ve done all day is tell two legged rats to fu*k off, the whole site is a bio hazard, the nutters from the church across the road have been over and asked if we’d like to join them and some scruffy lass decided to take a shit in the alley behind the property
  18. It’s won the accolade for the highest violent crime rate per capita for about the last 10 years, it’s a dangerous place to be, so far this morning I’ve had to remove two crackheads and a dinghy doctor from the site
  19. New job today, foundations for a big extension on student accommodation, I think I’m only here for security, it’s at a place called Brough Road in Middlesbrough, if any of you know Middlesbrough you will know why you need someone just to keep an eye out
  20. This weather needs to make its mind up, we got there and it was 20 degrees and sunny, by the time we got over the far side of the shoot the temperature had dropped and it started pissing down, my birds are starting to wander now so luckily I had Mrs Stav with me to push them back towards the pens
  21. I swear they just make it up, my missus drive a 56k car and it was 90 quid a year cheaper to park it on the driveway than telling them it was kept in the garage, it was the woman at admiral that told her that, I’ve no idea why it’s more expensive when it’s locked away
  22. Quick chicken dinner today, now off to work up at the shoot for the afternoon
  23. It’s probably because I’ve been with them for years, I think most of them just think of a number and double it, I was thinking of getting another bike, checked the insurance and they wanted around 500 quid, I’ve had a bike license for over 20 years, my last bike was £120 fully comp
  24. Couple of bottles of dog tonight seen as rain stopped play
