fred Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 My cousin has been suspended from his jop as a supervisor. His crime? Telling a couple of Eastern Europeans to get back to work - they were skiving. Naturally they played the race card. This country is going to hell in a handcart.Thats just a bucket of arse biscuits - suspended for that! fuck me sideways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 How did you mount it in the end? If you mean the lights then it's just a pair 'L' brackets that are held in place with the number plate screws. I need to modify them somehow though as there isn't much lateral support, I can rotate them by hand. The design I posted a thread about a few months ago wouldn't really work with the Swift as the front end has quite a curve to it that I hadn't really noticed before. If you mean the ground wire, I haven't yet. I'm just going to make my own ground strap that will fit over a screw/bolt that manufacturers actually use in cars. (I've mounted them lower than this now) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The grump was driving empty 110 miles at 2am to start a duty, then having to drive 110 miles empty back 'cos the bellends never told us they got a guard to operate the train yesterday afternoon.

Alan_Green Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 You'll never believe this but my grandfather was a train guard based in Arrochar in the 1940's. True! cms206 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They say it's a small world... if it's any consolation about four years ago I was tracing my family tree - I found out my great, great, great grandfather was a horse-drawn stagecoach driver from Houston, just down the road. At the time I was doing my family tree I did 6-days a week driving the bus which linked Paisley and Bridge of Weir... via Houston. To date it appears we were the only two people in the entire family involved in public transport. Alan_Green and Bucketeer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure 100% of genuine F40's only go to garages that have spotless white tiled floors. richardmorris, EssDeeWon and michael1703 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beko1987 Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Got a call from swmbo at 4.45 saying her blood sugar is very high and shes waiting at the doctors to be seen. I could hear eva being loud in the background. Get out of work (helps having a boss who has had 2 kids) and toe it home to the doctors (the steering goes really light and the clonking noises stop ay an indicated 105, modern drivers dont like being audi-d out the way by a 21yo battered shitroen) Get to the docs within 20 minutes (a record in itself, dont tell plod) , ask the receptionist which room shes in and shes standimg behind me... Been seen, got to check again in 4 hours and rest. Ffs. The one time i domt panic and rush will be the time something serious happens... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
