robbo Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 I really shouldn't sit in front of the computer with several glasses of red wine.......I start to bid on things I don't really want ......and no-one seems to bid against me........seems I am now the owner of a Steiger Wildcat in 1:32......... how does that fit in with my European theme \ \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 it's no good having a wine about it now Mike...

Tractorman810 Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 got stiched up today at work by one of my workmates who is away on lodge up bristol he went to look at a job last week for the boarders agency in the docks in plymouth, and decided that the way the planner had done the job was wrong, and replaned it himself to suit him, minimum work max time to do what he wantedm however he got it wrong and left me to pick the peices up, and sort the horrible mess that he left behind, customers gone to the board with a complaint as bt charged them 6 k for this new fibre route and he never provided it, due to the location we had to do a rush job which resulted in opening a box when we shouldn't have, and having to take another customers fibre down ,which is a major no no, and rushing to get done as the on site contractors moving all the kit ahd started and we had no choice, all hells broken loose at work now from it, ended up turning my mobile of we were getting that many calls about it all, and they have even tried my home number this eve its that serious now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 stress related issues are becoming more of an issue mate ;) in all of us, buggers can now send me away for up to 25 weeks of the year to ,with as little as 2 days notice but usally 1 weeks, only thing thnat stops that is holidays, or familly emergencys, ,saturdays are now normal days, ok i know thats not new to anyone else, but our jobs are usally customer controlled, and most we deal with on our side are ? yes you got it shut on saturdays, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav836 Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Stuck at home for a few days after my Discovery threw a wobbly Thursday night and had a trip on a recovery truck to the garage, been a loud bang coming from the gearbox for 3 weeks now which I did have investigated before and we thought it was the standard mainshaft/input gear issue inbetween the gearbox and transfer box. The noise had been getting louder and more violent driving home from the Norfolk Show Thursday, 3 miles from home there was a loud grating noise from the gearbox area and loss of drive......bugger Garage have the box out now and surprisingly for something with 124500 miles on it there is no wear in the input gear or on the mainshaft, it looks like new so other than getting the box tested while its out its not looking to be faulty.....huge sigh of relief (the two boxes come to £1000-1200 + fitting) however the clucth has self distructed and the whole centre has sheared and ripped out of it.......bad enough but not so bad......on holiday now for two weeks as well so not the best start to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
