Title: Hi, guys,,, UPDATE
Post by: spanners on October 28, 2017, 04:28:09 PM
Hi, all
Well as most of you will know I gave up everything in Derbyshire , and moved to north Yorkshire  for a new start ,,
Well the promised unkissable job for life complete with accommodation  ( boat to live on ). Went t1ts up  after the summer rush and some sibling rivalry (family fighting ,family ) with the company .
I got laid of and after a heated discussion I got my P45 

So I have now got another job  and I have just moved into a holiday home ,,static caravan,, on the site of an old water powered sawmill

Times are very ,,very tough but I,m alive and have a place to live ,,lol,,

Any way that's my update

Mike

Good to hear from you Spanners.

I was lucky when I worked for a family with a marina and caravan park, lovely family.

Some of them can be absolute sods.

Take care of yourself. All the best.

Glad to hear you are still alive and kicking Mike. Shame about the job/boat as it seemed perfect for you.

It's good they detected it Mike and you've been treated. Some people don't even know they've had one. Oldmetalhead82 has recently gone through the same thing as you. Hope you are back to normal soon and it's an isolated incident (the TIA not you being normal!).  :D
All my best, JJ  :)

Sorry to hear that Mike, being a TIA or mini stroke you should recover quickly, the news that i was not to drive for a month pi**ed me off most  as i felt ok after two or three days, anyway  going to doctors on Wednesday to be checked to see if im ok to drive again, all the best mate, take it easy,Dave

O
K, well I,v had some bad luck and been down a few times over the years  as some of the long standing members on here will already know

Well I,m that far down at present that I will be unable to drive for some time   and I have a number of projects and vehicles that are now surplus to future requirements
 Most are in threads on this site but others have been under wraps for some time
But to be realistic. Everything will have to go and I know a lot of stuff require,s work but if any body is interested in anything please get in contact
