4 day week versus 5 nights of old job, slightly less money, but 40hrs versus 37.5, plus free van and fuel, means its pretty even money wise, main thing is I can take my dog to work with me, plus missus actually likes me being at home!
Old place had 400 bits of kit and 25 mechs, new place has 25 bits of kit and one mech which is me.
Old place all trucks were 320 bhp, new place lowest bhp is 370, and the rest are 530 to 700 ish.
Today I have been fixing a 30 yr old F12 and a 20 yr old gen 1 FH12, real old school clobber.
Happy wife… happy life….

Look after yourself & I keep flashing my lights to all landies around Kent as most jobs now round that area ( change of planner & location)
 
Sunday fine for me too.

just starting to take delivery of 61 new 460 FM Volvos… Was down in Hythe yesterday looking over the first one.
As for Sheppy - well! I’m based at the Mill in Kemsley, and those roadworks on the 249 are no fun !
 
61 lorries ,think it’s time u treated yourself to a proper landrover 😀
😂
If only I owned the company - it’s a multi national, multi-billion organisation, I just run the transport.
£10m order, and best I’ll get is a bloody Volvo jacket!

And anyway, I like the one that doesn’t rust and only requires the smallest mortgage to keep on the road 🤪🤣
 
Sunday it is then ! Sounds like the new jobs a win, you could of come and helped me fix endless ag head ache jobs
All jobs are aggro
Today defender mot which should be okay
Second job front diff output seal on D3 bet that is going to be awkward
 
So, lynall is hoodwinking the tester at mot today…

I have the joys of going into the powerstation and sitting there for a few hours.

Been ages since been into the mill to deliver.
 
@Freddie17 Sounds like a great plan , only thing in the back of my mind is fingers crossed I can get my brakes all sorted out in the next few weeks as reliant to see when my neighbour is free to assist me getting the wheels off to reach the bleeding points

along with ensuring the brakes are all ok , can then replace both brake pad wear sensors seeing they were in the box but not changed

really looking forward to this

plus will anyone have a dashcam plse, I’ve got a camera I can bring if it’s of interest to anyone in me bringing one

No dashcam, but dare say I’ll have a passenger (not decided ’who’ gets the pleasure this time round!), and they will probably record / photo with my phone, same as we did last time. Happy to share those on whatsapp or similar.

Stick a video or two up on YouTube so we can all have a look.
 
Yeah - I might just do that, so long as others are happy being ‘in shot’…
Or I can just wait till the big boys toys get ahead of me and then film myself 🤣
