    Italian Tune!

    A lot better learning a trade (and that is via proper full Apprenticeship not these coarse for a few month). It is getting more difficult these days to find a good tradesman,but firms find it hard to justify the cost of training them,and then see them leave after.

    So, why would anyone choose to live here?

    Whereas Abersoch is full of folk from the area around Manchester Airport ( Ringway ) I found Nefyn to be full of people from around Speke Airport. But yes it's a lot cheaper at Nefyn. Both areas are in serious need of some well paying employment.

    Wheel Refurb

    Interesting I started this thread about getting my wheels refurbished,now we come to DI products . I must have written many orders out for manhole covers ( mainly MA60) over the years. Regarding pipes I always found Clay Cross a lot easier to deal with than Stantons --- I assume due to...

    Scaffolding

    HSE would have a field day if they saw that. I doubt it was erected by a scaffolder,its looks like the builder using a system scaffold he had in the yard. Its a fixed minimum width so can not be altered,a scaffold company would have used tube and fittings. If I recall correctly scaffolders were...

    Insurance time again.

    More cameras to spoil a good riving road?

    I am losing count of the sets of average speed cameras in North Wales. This is just part of the Welsh Assembly hatred of private people using cars. This weekend up here in North Wales we had the police close the A5 ( this is Thomas Telford's London - Holyhead road) to tow away cars parked...

    Hazard Warning Light problem

    Definitely electrical, even changed the switch to try it. The electrician took one from another car it made no difference to my Z3 but it was OK in its donor car before and after. The bit that worries me if it causes trouble at MoT time.

    In a hurry?

    FACT. Labour allowed 78mph no ban. Conservative 68mph 6 month ban. They are not different people they are both senior political party members. Is that that not political. I dread to think what us ordinary folk would get driving at almost double the speed limit.

    In a hurry?

    But if you are a conservative MP doing 68mph in a 40 limit you get 6 month ban but a labour lord mayor can doing 78mph in a 40 mph limit you are not banned. So it seems you can behave according to party membership. A few years ago I happily past a speed camera in Tremadoc at 40 mph not...
