RobT Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I was hoping to come but domestic stuff and car fixings at home take priority this time I'm afraid. Â A replacement coolant pipe for the Metro and rear brake pads on the Cavalier are planned. Â I'm hoping to get the former job done at the very least!

richardmorris Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 OK these thing happen.I wish they didn't - I'm stressed enough as it is. I am now refusing to answer the phone in case I yell down the phone at a customer. I have to sort out our BSI readiness for ISO 9001:2015 assessment. It's all management speak gobbledegook. Kill me now! Example.... what is the top management commitment to the quality management system? Well you're speaking to the owners, directors and workers- yes both of us! chaseracer, DSdriver, Six-cylinder and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richardmorris Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 It is, but I need to get in the correct state of mind- waffle endlessly on about commitment and improvement. Etc. It's not me ( or our company- we are determined to be non corporate.) I got landed with this gig twenty years ago as I'd just come from another company with BS5750 and FDA accreditation. It's all men's round hairy objects!  Edit. Off topic and I'm sorry for hijacking the thread. I was looking forward to dismantling Kermit the visa too.

richardmorris Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Well I got a fair bit of management double speak ( 1948 was extremely prescient) done. What happened at the field of dreams? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heidel_Kakao Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Much tea and coffee was drunk. Also lots of moped action, Visa dismantling, Spitfire fixerating and just general tinkering. Weather was great to boot  One of my dogs took a real liking to the Visa and spent a few hours chilling inside it. richardmorris, chaseracer, CGSB and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richardmorris Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 I don't think it got started today (certainly while I was there, though I was the last to arrive and the first to leave).Quicksilver Snr was battling the offside rear brakes for the duration.He's a glutton for punishment!

Six-cylinder Posted August 12, 2017 Author Share Posted August 12, 2017 The Alfa had its brakes released and wheel refitted.  One thing I learnt today, don't park your mower in gear with the engine running, its a long walk to get it back! Thanks guys a great day. richardmorris, CGSB, DeeJay and 13 others 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bucketeer Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Looks like yet another grand day was had at the FOD. You know it's going to be productive when the maroon Maxi is in attendance. Love the pics of easy rider Rich and especially seeing Anthony getting his destruction on. When I'm less in the grip of brandygeddon I'll arrange coming up soon to construct the easement facilities.
