I've not been told I'll be calling metcalfs tomorrow morning to find out all the details it was 5.20pm that I was asked if I could start Monday, it's tramping all week so not exactly ideal but if the money is right then I'll run with it. I'll be expecting 35-40k a year after tax to make it worthwhile 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be expecting 35-40k a year after tax to make it worthwhile That would mean £50k to £60k, you would need shit ton of overtime and night work for that, I think you are dreaming as usual. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Rode over to my parents’ place today, a longer time than usual away. Stayed mostly on the motorway, it was chilly but ok after I put the warmer gloves on. My brother is leaving tomorrow so wanted to spend sometime with him today, also was not looking forward to a day freezing in the hills. brief stop for the chorizo bread lunch@Sofiabaked yesterday. Tomorrow or after it’ll start raining, and I’ll be dealing with work shit for a few days, on top of probable family stuff. This might be my botm submission this month, taken on the @Six30 school of photography At least my best buddy enjoyed his new toy, I missed him greatly 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's quite achievable in this line of work, don't necessarily need a shit ton of night work or overtime just the right rates 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gymwitch Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Get to pick up the money pit tomorrow. This is going to be expensive but hopefully chased away the last of the gremlins. He's done the forks AGAIN. He's found out why it was twisted at the front as if it had a bent fork...it doesnt...He's cleaned and balanced the carbs and put new carb mounts on. Serviced it. So we shall see. It sounds amazing. Wish i could post a video on here 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
