SAE30 will be fine. Toolstation/screwfix sell it. Click and collect.
Just set mine up like you say seems decent for the dollar. A bloke I know wants a tonne of hard-core and a wacker can't find anyone open. I gave him a local number but tempted to say for 70 quid I'll drop you the tonne on back of my pickup and loan wacker

Yeah not bad at all.

That said, I get the impression it could go bang at any moment and that would be that.

Well, all recruitment has now been stopped and any offers of employment have been rescinded. Why is it every time im trying to stand up something kicks my feet away. When i first joined this site a recession was on and i was just venturing into self employment.

Accepted a place on the MS.c. the other day, going to attempt to freelance over the summer.

Good to see the replies, stay well all.

I trust the reference to the Nightingale Hozzy was as a contractor, not a patient?

Back to work as a full crew last Monday, employing best practice when it comes to social distancing.
Travelling to site in separate vehicles.

Life has to go on!

My biggest problem at the moment is civils merchants and asphalt plants STILL shut!!!! Crazy.

Enquiries are buoyant and the order book is healthy.

Same for so many, Dave.

I spoke with a couple of contractors last week who are still contending with having to make appointments to call at their usual BM!
