Aye all this team effort. …we’ll make a milk tray man of you yet ! ! Lol & I’ll be at the ready to do a rescue mission , just in case One Fox dropping out the sky, & one CWM heading across icy water I’m going to need 25tonnes of chocolate energy boost to tackle these two
reet well this foxy went to bed really early in the hope that it’d get some sleep but hell no
all’s i was seeing was pictures of CWM running accross the ice whilst bonnie lass was sat on a sunlounger giving him marks out of 10 for effort lol
just rocked up at the skydiving centre - it’s 0551 and what does the 0 stand for — o my god it’s early hoping that i’ll get at least 5 drops today and maybe some extra base jumps, 5 seconds and splat no more mr cadbury — i gotta be in one piece cos i got the longer trailer with me so if it all goes pear shaped then at least the guys here will be sharing my load and having a party too it’s also about minus 3 on the ground so up at 12,000 ft it’s gunna be like minus 20 at 120mph i want me mummy but i’ll “make do” with bonnie lass instead would be so much more fun providing i bring th choccy of course
It’s going to be freezing up there!! {{{ }}}, I know, have a hot chocolate drink before you go up! minus summat like 20 brrrrrrr. … toooo cold for me, best place for me is taking care of the Cadbury van , , lol if I put tbe sunlounger matress on the ground. …willthat soften the landing !! I’ll try not to leave any empty wrappers about enjoy the experience of the day
not from those heights at those speeds but the cadbury van would make an interesting sight if i fell on it — death by chocolate
don’t worry i always live on the edge - i live for today with and keep tabs on tomorrow to see what other hairbrained things i can get upto
get to see my sister for the first time since the olympic park job cos she drives tower cranes (rather her than me lol ) and she’s dropping onto a job in manchester city centre from what she said and i got the forks contract for that job — it’s a really short engineering project for me and then i’m back on house building site shut down again easy life, easy money toooo
want choccy - might go raid the trailer
Enjoy your day
Great that you’ll be seeing your sister again too
I’m just heading for the choccy tin & out the door. …
enjoy yourself wherever you’rer you’re lucky enough to get sent
and i’ll try not to make any dents in either the trailer or the load
It’s a great opportunity you have to go parachuting, it must be quite an experience, let us know how it all goes
I could always help clear up the crumbs & broken choccy !
Aye, Good Luck with the Skydiving
, foxy stars.
Nowt like having a ( parachute) jump first thing in the morning , while the air is clearer and less polluted.
At -20, I think that`s cold enough to freeze the b… ., so wrap up well.
For your courage , we wish you well…
My goodness, someone has woke me up from this thread again!!!
Oh best get up and start ignoring again.
yay i survived 4 full height AFF drops and 2 BASE drops so that’s 178 drops in my coverted jumping logbook
it wasn’t that bad temp wise - enough to keep me cadbury bar and a half well chilled though - most important part - and i love it first thing in the morning cos we’re not having to fight manny airport for space to fly - that’s the biggest killer for us. also this morning ws like almost cloudless
so it was off with the thermals (only real girlies wear them) and on with a jumpsuit, t-shirt and jump gloves and my favourite nikeeeee socks so me feetseees wouldn’t get cold lol never worn boots yet they’d just stop the sweat evapourating and i can’t be having with that
on me way to lancaster but having a kitkat (break) first — think i deserve one and this load is not time sensitive — how rare is that and then gotta be in fleetwood for 4pm then take trailer down to wolverhampton drop and pick then go back to kendal prolly for a night out - been years since i last went on the tiles in kendal
can you do this if you’re an employee didn’t think so - there’s a lot to be said for being a freelancer
in fact i could see stobbies making me use a green and red chute ---- noooooooo bad brain ■■■■ sorry
that’s that lot got shut of am turning and burning for wolves and this double deck trailery thingy mwotsity thingy…still full of cadbury
gunna be an interesting night if some alcoholically challenged person finds out that i got like a 20 odd tons of very much edible cadbury’s choccy on tap…
just got me some cadbury bar and a half’s — gunna seriously enjoy slurping on these going back down the 6
might even get to see me other half later on me way back up not seen her since last tuesday lol well whatelse did she want - she wants the money but doesn’t want me to work for it - so now i got her a job as a permanent housekeeper - lets juss see how long she sticks around
i deffo get to see me sister on thursday should be much fun — not — i left home at 14 and she just got treated like royalty so it says it all that my adopted mam n dad paid £2200 for her tower crane license — she should’ve stuck to teaching english (she’s a qualified english teacher) but even she hates the ski’s
you might be thinking that there’s hint of jealousy - not a bit of it, i earn way more than she ever will
plus i’d far rather know that my feet are touching the floor when the £$%^ hits the fan - at least i can get out
i’m in jct27 service area — wot a hole — daren’t go in in case someone gets wise to me carrying choccy
CWM am gunna visit that cadbury shop you told me about on me way back through tomorrow — should be much fun cos i got a backload (toiletries destined for brummy shops) out of bootle for lunchtime delivery back in wolverhampton then i turn and burn for home and a decent sleep in my own bed
then a got a day off on wednesday and then am off to sunny manchester on thurs,fri,sat,sun and then bed propply on mundy
Sounds like you had a great time with the pachuting no trailer dents either! lol:D
I couldn’t see any choccy bits raining down from the sky though you didn’t take a reserve supply with you in your pockets then …Sooooo CWM has told you where to get a good stash of choccies could be interesting! !
yup he pm’d me yesterday to inform me that the cadbury shop had moved from kendal and told me exactly where it was and even said that i’d be able to get this rig in there — lurvely
how was your day ■■?
I hope you got a good load from Cadbury did you fill your rig?
My day was okay thanks, work slacking off , just enough to keep going for the time being got today & tomorrow off
i should be finished by 1300hrs if i’m lucky traffic really light at the mo
went to cadbury shop - opens at 0800 and did more than fill me rig lol
on me way to bootle cos am running mt at mo - got a load of smellies to pick up and tek to wolves then i gotta come all the way back up here again — i go past me house on the way to wolves, surely summats not reet
lucky you avin a day off i getz one tomorrow and then it’s off to sunny (yeh right) manchester on thursday and more money
the cscs card i was talking to you about - it costs £17.50 and is touch screen - go to cpcs.com or google cpcs health & safety and environment test (told you it’d gone nuts bit like this fruit n nut bar n a half that i gots in me cakehole)
Cheers for the tips foxy , going to suss it out, I think I got the wrong site before
Happy trucking
bonnie lass if you’re struggling with all the stuff that’s on the website call Mandy Smith on the CPCS helpdesk - her number is 0844 815 7274 and she’ll be able to tell you exactly what you want to know
put simply what she doesn’t know about the cscs stuff isn’t worth knowing prolly be as well to give her a shout before you splash the cash on anything
have fun and let me know how it goes please
am on my way to brum after i’ve had me kitkat def be finished before 1300hrs yay
Thank you very much for the info & number, I’ll be in touch
Early finish for you today then , enjoy your time off
