A bit off a clear out behind my brothers house today.  Clearing for a shed to cover the 8210.  Drawing out sub soil to a site down the road. The T7. 270 and a Valtra 6600 on the haul. 8210 cracked the pípe between the manifold and exhaust... So it went out off action..

One of the cab shock-absorber's on Puma been weeping so took both off to replace ,got 2 bits of wood in and knocked a metal wedge in to lift cab and get weight of shocks to get bolts out ,to fit new ones i had to get a bit of box metal and slide in box at bottom of cab and get a hydraulic jack with a long bit of wood on top to push cab up a bit higher . The 2 spanners with old shock is what mechanic at Does has lent me as there is 4 settings on shocks and need them to turn onto setting that you need

planned a day in the shed, managed an 1 and a half hours, step daughter slipped on the stairs this morn, had to drive her to A&E which was quiet ,but she has managed to break her big toe in 3 places ,so has to be pinned, also dislocated the joint ,heard her scream when that got put in place 🫣 despite having anaesthetic first, shes also broken two small bones near by in the foot, so shes now in a weird support boot, and cant drive for 6 weeks odd, and maybe more if the op to pin it is required quickly, as the breaks in the toe are pretty bad and it wouldn't all sit right when they tried to reshape it once it was relocated properly , seems the next few weeks are gonna be busy running kids to all sorts. for me and the wife.

been sat in our training centre in exeter all day today, to be told its not health and safety any more, its safety and health , because some external company did an audit on us(unknown by the company) and approached and recommended that we were very poor at it???? company bought in to it(suspect one of our board owns or is on that lots board) and we now have to do this every six months apparently ,they say we shouldn't be working when the nhs strikes are on, just in case we have an accident and need help , basically its now anyway to not do the job ,even to the red book, which is the highways bible, as its all wrong, despite that being used by every other utility company, be an interesting few months as the newbie young cant live without social media engineers get going, they are bad enough already without this to aid their bone idleness .
