Eddie Honda Posted May 2, 2019 Author Share Posted May 2, 2019 No money shot as the money business was sorted out earlier. As my lolly is in yoyos, time it was shifted into pounds... then shift from my pounds account to the vendor, quickly and effortlessly. With that paided it was time to do some other stuff.

Eddie Honda Posted May 2, 2019 Author Share Posted May 2, 2019 tax done. £23 a month. Job jobbed. Now excuse me for the lousy collection pics. I'm sitting here in Ireland and I'm doing this semi-remotely. I have a friend "MT" who happens to work 2 weeks on / 2 weeks off and fortunately, he happens to be on his fortnight off. So a three-way conversation is set up with me, him and vendor. Amazing what you can do with technology these days. /oldmanpatter Vendor also heads over to gov.uk and sorts out V5C change.

Eddie Honda Posted May 2, 2019 Author Share Posted May 2, 2019 While this is going on, MT is on train from Glasgow Queen St... Another lousy library photo to Edinburgh Waverley. Swaps there and heads south... Jim Bell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Honda Posted May 2, 2019 Author Share Posted May 2, 2019 In the meantime, I head off to work. WhatsApp co-ordination goes well and initial collection is achieved at around teatime. First news from MT is at 20:33. He is at Carlisle after a quick McD's and a fag run to ASDA. I wonder about the smokes as he reportedly bought some earlier ("B&H Sky Blue" - WTF?1? - he told me they were cheapest at WH Smith, Waverley) Also mentioned was first fill up. I take it he wasn't at a supermarket as it was £88. 21:19 report: he's stuck in stationary traffic on the A74(M) because accident ahead. See's three fire engines go past. Followed by a further specialist cutting one shortly after. 01:14 report: still here, been 4hrs. Apparently southbound car flipped over barrier and hit two northbound cars. Messy. 02:20 report: Road still closed, finally gets turned round but still sitting stationary albeit facing t'other way. 05:51 report: Got home 05:30. Off to his kip. NEWS UPDATE: https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/news/4194136/a74-ecclefechan-crashes-three-dead-police/ Collection thread resumes tomorrow morning...hopefully with more cheerful news.

Eddie Honda Posted May 2, 2019 Author Share Posted May 2, 2019 Around 2am I see with massive relief that I haven't won a roffle. This saves me the having to do a second collection thread inside a week. The Moog and Jim Bell 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Honda Posted May 3, 2019 Author Share Posted May 3, 2019 Ok, my work has finished for the week. Time to start the weekend and do my collection of my collection. The Moog, Tickman and Jim Bell 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
