No more work for a bit for me, managed to put a grinder through my wrist, surgery in the next couple of days, thought I was going to bleed out, very scary, luckily I wasn’t on my own this morning
I don’t know why but it doesn’t sit well with me when I feel like I’m just taking peoples money and they are not getting what they are paying for, I fixed the fire surround in the caravan, repaired a drinker and cut the mats for the stables for her, I thought “ your paying me anyway so I might as well do a few bits “
I kept a bit of the chicken and leek stew from earlier in the week because Mrs Stav is away with work, so I chucked in some spicy chorizo and it was lovely, I wish I’d gotten some crusty bread to go with it
Mental this lot, I said to them, you need to burn all the timber I’ve taken out because there’s a lot more to come out, so they haven’t done it and said to me today would I do it, so they have paid me £20 an hour to have a fire and load plasterboard in the skip some people have more money than sense
Not far off ready to put the 360 through it now, waiting on the elec board to move everything, we even put the ducting in for them to try and gee them up a bit, and hopefully when the Batman comes tomorrow he’s happy for us to start pulling the roof off
Mrs Stav is out for tea with her mate so I done myself a chuck it in curry, chicken, onion, tomatoes, peppers, garlic, ginger, cream and a few dry spices, turned out ok
Another toad in the hole tonight, farmers keep giving me spuds and eggs at the minute so it’s a good way to use the up, I’m getting a bit sick of egg buttys at work every day though
Well, I’m completely baffled by this, no idea what he thinks he’s achieving, drainage should be about getting it off your land not bringing it further onto it so you can pump it off
This makes no sense whatsoever, he’s the highest point at the back so it would just send the water down the field, it wouldn’t even go into next doors, but hey, I’m just here to dig holes
Anyone tell me the point of this? Mate said can you give me a hand with a drainage job, 15’ of pipe into a sump because the garden floods in the winter and he wants to be able to pump it out, why would you not just put a 6” perforated pipe along the back of your boundary sending the water to the left and onto the farmer’s field out the back this is what happens when you work for a retired civil engineer
Another chicken dinner today, now off on my meals on wheels round, dinner for my mam, apple crumble for the mother-in-law and bags of wheat for my flying chickens
Picked some nice cookers earlier, stewed them in dark brown sugar and lemon juice, they don’t look too clever but they smell amazing, I’m sure the mother-in-law will give me her opinion when I drop her one off
