Title: Re: are you all at the pub Post by: Manky Monkey on September 13, 2009, 04:11:36 PM Yup. I was at the pub -the Windmill in Four Marks, near Alton, Hants, for the Hotrods & Choppers show. Taz had to work today & I don't drink so had to content myself with looking at all the shiny stuff in the carpark instead. Not a bad turn out & some interesting new stuff I hadn't seen before. Takes me a couple of hours to run through the photos, cropping them, adjusting exposures etc & I promised a couple of guys I'd have them online this evening, so I'll be back in a while. ;)

Title: Re: are you all at the pub Post by: BikerGran on September 13, 2009, 04:41:58 PM Yep I was at the pub catching up with an old friend on the way homefrom a weekend away. She was on a bike so I thought I better turn out on the trike even if it was only a mile away - so naturally I had to take Gertie for a bit of a run afterwards!

Title: Re: are you all at the pub Post by: Manky Monkey on September 14, 2009, 02:56:10 PM So was Taz's. She's working 7 days a week at the moment, for no extra pay, running a stable yard all on her own. That's why she hasn't been here much in the last couple of weeks. Back to normal soon I hope.

[/quote no wonder the rich get richer and the poor get poorer Title: Re: are you all at the pub Post by: tazet on September 16, 2009, 06:18:26 PM Tell me about it. Managed to find a little time to pop in here to see what you're all up to. Yes working 7 days a week at the moment and averaging 12 1/2 hour days every day too. Hopefully I'll find someone I like soon to employ then I can have a long earned break. All my hours are getting noted and I WILL be putting them in.

Title: Re: are you all at the pub Post by: ROD on September 17, 2009, 04:11:16 AM We've recently opened 2 new (extra) buildings on our site. I hadnt realised I was doing 12 hour days for 7 1/2 hours pay!The work load is diabolical! Had 2 weeks leave in summer,didnt go abroad as envisaged ,so was always around at home,kept getting called back. Reckon I did ,on average 2 1/2 hours a day all thro' my leave with no pay!After a recent medical "scare" Ive decided to stick to my correct hours,and what isnt done ,then thats tuff!It still wont make "them" in their ivory towers realise we arent coping tho'! We were always at the most ,a couple of days behind with repairs,now we have ,I reckon,a 6 week backlog! Hey Ho!
