I got caught "speeding" (35 in a 30, not 86 on a motorway!?!) and got to do a "Speed Awareness" course. I made exactly the same point as above. The fact that as drivers/riders we have the road, road markings, road signs, vehicles in front, behind, to the left and right, then the roads in front, behind, to the left and right, traffic lights, pelican crossing, zebra crossing etc. Then in addition to all that we have to watch for idiots running across the road! I did ask wouldn't it be easier to educate the pedestrian rather than the driver? Still waiting for an answer!

there is still some good people out there
BanditMike replied to Davehutch-hutchs's topic in The Pub "Tinker and Budget"
Always good to hear these things. We get so used to hearing all the bad we get surprised at the good. In the end there are more good people than bad, it's just the good rarely get news coverage. Apparently it's not classed as "good news", which in itself is twisted! The girlfriend lost her phone walking home from a night out a few months back. She walked back to the pub but couldn't find it. She went back again the following morning and apparently an elderly couple had found it, so she got it back. -

As you're already at the company, a lot of the usual questions around performance etc you won't need to ask. I would suggest you look at the areas you don't know about, ie future plans/developments? Planning to recruit more staff? Any planned new technology or machines? Are they looking to expand products or client base? Look at what you established 7 years ago and see how it has changed up to now. Query do they plan to continue changes in the same vein? Is there anything you feel that would be beneficial now? Regards the question on money, personally I would leave it to the end. They'll ask if you have any questions, if they don't ask you, ask them if they'd mind answering some questions you have? Make a note of a few questions and take them on a piece of paper. If you forget them, take out the paper and read from it. Odds are you'll know the person/people interviewing you, but avoid the trap of becoming too informal, try and maintain a professional and polite manner. Not sure if this is any use. My last interview was three years ago. Unfortunately I'm in Finance rather than CNC machining. I'm sure there will be plenty of other suggestions over the course of the evening. Good luck for tomorrow.

CONFUCIUS DIDN'T SAY: Man who wants pretty nurse, must be patient. Passionate kiss, like spider web, leads to undoing of fly. Lady who goes camping must beware of evil intent. Squirrel who runs up woman's leg will not find nuts. Man who leaps off cliff jumps to conclusion. Man who runs in front of car gets tired, man who runs behind car gets exhausted. Man who eats many prunes get good run for money. War does not determine who is right, it determines who is left. Man who fight with wife all day get no piece at night. It takes many nails to build a crib, but one screw to fill it. Man who drives like hell is bound to get there. Man who stands on toilet is high on pot. Man who live in glass house should change clothes in basement. Man who fish in other man' s well often catch crabs. Finally CONFUCIUS DID SAY. . ... "A lion will not cheat on his wife, but a Tiger Wood!"

A woman in a supermarket is following a grandfather and his badly behaved 3 year-old grandson. It's obvious to her that he has his hands full with the child screaming for sweets in the sweet aisle, biscuits in the biscuit aisle; and for fruit, cereal and pop in the other aisles. Meanwhile, Granddad is working his way around, saying in a controlled voice, "Easy, William, we won't be long . . .. easy, boy." Another outburst, and she hears the granddad calmly say, "It's okay, William, just a couple more minutes and we'll be out of here. Hang in there, boy." At the checkout, the little terror is throwing items out of the cart, and Granddad says again in a controlled voice, "William, William, relax buddy, don't get upset. We'll be home in five minutes; stay cool, William." Very impressed, the woman goes outside where the grandfather is loading his groceries and the boy into the car. She said to the elderly gentleman, "It's none of my business, but you were amazing in there. don't know how you did it. That whole time, you kept your composure, and no matter how loud and disruptive he got, you just calmly kept saying things would be okay. William is very lucky to have you as his grandpa." "Thanks," said the grandfather, "but I'm William . .. . the little b#?###*d's name is Kevin."

Is there no way you can chase him under the "European Law" etc, given all this "open borders" across Europe? They can chase you for speeding and parking tickets across Europe, so surely they can follow this as well? If you've got/ had the legal cover on your insurance may be worth looking at? Someone else may have a better idea than me of whether this will work?

I've put this on for a friend, so any questions, let me know and I'll get answers. Yamaha xj600 pre diversion street fighter project,new braided stainless hoses and oil cooler.have all original fairings. I believe the wheels have been powder coated, tank been painted etc. It's mainly a case of putting it all back together. Money wise, he's looking for around £300. Few pictures
