Nice one azza! There is lots of advice and differing views on here. Its nice to hear you are enjoying the job fella.

Harry Monk got it spot on. You only really regret what you didn’t try.

Excluding ■■■■■■ clamps. Dipper Dave may challenge this last bit though.

Nowt wrong with ■■■■■■ clamps, quite stimulating if plugged into a power source.

Great stuff azza and well done for passing first time and walking straight in
to a job.

Well done mate, there is a lot to be said about being happy in your job. (I was keen myself once :laughing: .) Good luck with it all anyway.

OP : yes it is!!

I know not every day is like this, but atm, I’m parked just off the A259 near Brighton, within todger-fondling distance of Rodean Girls’ School, waiting to start hiabbing a mobile ‘phone mast in place. Been here since 07.30, there’s not a cloud in the sky, had a walk around the marina and a paddle in the sea, and ogled some rather gorgeous scantily clad ladies. I’ve just had the remains of last nights’ freshly cooked seafood tagliatelle for dinner whilst gazing out over an azure sea, and I’m tempted to have a wander up to the school and ask if they can use a man who’s handy with his tool :grimacing: .

If you can get that working in a factory/office, crack on!
