A bit windy out there
« on: January 03, 2012, 06:25:38 am »
Just tried to clean the Wheel of Plymouth, but decided not to, due to safety reasons as some of the perspex panels were hanging off and if they become detached then they will be blown into our working area!! dont fancy being hit by one with 70mph winds behind hit lol and the wind was moving the wheel round with the brakes ON!!!!   :o

Looks like only doing a few shops today and admin :(  good start to the first full day back!!!

If any of you boys are venturing out, be safe  ;) 8)

i bet you get sick of cleaning that wheel!! ;) ;D ;D ;D

sometimes its just not worth it to venture out in gales like these.im all ready after 9 days off.need to get rid of the extra pounds ive put on over xmas.lol.

if this wind stays at the strength it is at present ill be leaving it until tomorrow.iching to get out there now but i wont work in very strong wind with wfp as its a waste of time.it simply doesnt clean the windows to an acceptable standard.to morrow looks better for manchester.


regards

Yep torrential driving rain here, sadly the old lady got turned back on her way to work, so my nice easy peaceful morning will be spent working through the list of jobs she has just produced....
if it is dirty it is fair game
