« on: February 08, 2009, 05:12:50 pm »
Just staretd to snow again here in cheshire ::)

Thankfull got some decent jobs booked in for next week mostly repeats and recs,and a few new jobs otherwise if it wasnt for my repeats and recs it would have been a quiet week as am sure the weather puts people from ringing to book ???

In my jobs last week had to take the machine inside for the jobs as the snow was getting in through the frontdoor :o

Not bad at all Derek but if it's Harrogate your going to could be totally different.
Just a few wisps in the wind here at the moment.
Just don't go clubbing it in Chapeltown.

Hasn't been a pub for years now although I used to go there.
Passed it the other day, think it's a restaurant now.

6 miles away in Batley. Rupees per sq m here.
Go out in Leeds a lot 'cos there's trains running all night at w/e and I live about 3/4 of a mile from station.

Used to go to Fordde Greene regularly in the good old days when 4 of us would take it in turns to drink and drive for the night.
Also another good one was Barcelona at Kirkstall.
That was the sister club to the brilliant Amsterdam bar in Huddersfield.

Sky news will be bloody happy, all they spoke about about was the SNOW in england last week, whats the problem with this, its weather that hapens all the time, I live in scotland and have this every year and it doesnt make sky news,  some people in england must be soft, little flutter equals day off, good god. you lot wouldnt last 2 minutes up here.

i know what you mean dk but try as i might i live on a hill and i have NOT been able to get off my drive for most of this week, did a whole days work wednesday and 2 jobs thursday afternoon, that was it, i run a truck-mount and due to the weight issues and ice i just dare not take the chance of getting stuck. it's not been the main roads that are a problem, it's the side roads, they are an absolute skating rink,

Colin me and you must be in the the same micro clinate because it started to snow early it has now stopped but there's about 1-2" of snow (but I'm not going out to measure it)

Born and brought up in Huddersfield, I thought the Amsterdam was a gay bar is there something we should know here?
