DN you need to look through the forums theres a large posting about TCP and BAV track marcus clay the bav track director had some postings myself and digdugdan also added our bit,

IV not pushed the crusher much,as i got a bargin it does not stand me at alot off money,but i have spent £300 on new teeth and a conveyor refurb,its been out on a few hires but mostly on my own jobs i use it to crush any bits off concrete i bring back to yard and block off cuts

im going to start a push for it soon , had a load off flyers printed MSH :)

i've just been punished for my cheery mood, my little lad (9 months old) just woke up having covered himself and his cot in sick, just taken me 3 attempts with the baby shampoo to get the smell out. worst of all the mrs is out with her mates and we are off down sarth at 6am for four and half hours drive without traffic.

the joys haha

just had a request for a quote for a indoor horse arena 10 stables and fencing from a lady who's moving to ayershire, its looking like a £60k job but its a 6 hour drive away. thinking of adding a cheap caravan and going lodging away for 2 weeks at a time or something. its annoying though, theres work out there just bloody miles away.
