During my spell away from the keyboard I’ve had a whole list of things to mention, but now sat here I forget most of them.
Re: Junkie bastards… I have my second Hep jag the morra, BRILLIANT!! ha. stoopid needles, you jag yourself once and end up with six more jabs before your cleared. I’ve been off work since it happened, signed off with stress. Me! I’m not what I’d call stressed, i’m not depressed for example, just scared to go back, and well, annoyed that it happened. We aren’t well paid at the council and it’s probably the only plumbing job where you’re likely to come across that stuff. I mean the heroin problem is definitely less in your face when a nice couple from Cults rings you up to fit their bathroom than when you go to rip out a shitey bog in Tillydrone, per sé. The lack of renumeration just makes it more of a pain in the arris. I’m thinking about learning to drive trucks, which is something I’ve always wanted to do anyhow so that’s the plan.
Anyhow, meant to be going back tomorrow, although that’s been knocked on the head with the wee yin having a dose of the squirts, meaning her child minder won’t take her. Eugh.
The van has had a few problems too recently, just spent over £500 sorting a lower swing arm(which is a cast iron affair about 7inches long!) It also had a bit of a transmission niggle where it kept slipping out of gear. I’m missing out the UK in the search for parts this time and importing directly from GM in the states. MUCH cheaper! Hopefully it will be all sorted soon as I reckon we will keep it for a while yet.
I’m having a brain fart atm about the things I meant to write about when I got back in the saddle, still… meh….
