Re: BX Driver key witness in Diana death trial
Exactly. If only life could be that simplistic!
Well it can, but it took me 30 years to realise that. Granted it takes a self belief that borders on arrogance.....alright is arrogant.
I worked for a company for 30 years, till one day they said we're off to france. You'll come of course. I said no, they said ok your redundant, I said fine.
I didn't feel fine at the time, in fact quite fearful as I recall, but I made a decision there and then that I would only work for people that appreciated what I was doing (for them) and no way would I stay anywhere longer than 2 years. I did'nt quite make it but had 7 employers in 18 years
I quit on my terms, every job except the first and the last one, if something or somebody didn't suit then I was off elsewhere. Guess what it became easier and easier to get work when people realised I had standards and would'nt compromise them.
I'll grant you it isn't that simple when you have a family and a mortgage on an old house that soaks up money. But then life get's exciting when you don't give a shit.
If you like Bandit I'll come down and shout, as I offered before, only I won't be shouting at the animals, or what's left of them.

Re: BX Driver key witness in Diana death trial
I'd qualify that - life gets exciting when you do give a shit about things that are important, and don't give a shit about things that are, in the end, unimportant. Which is to more or less include what you said in the first bit above.Philhod wrote: Guess what it became easier and easier to get work when people realised I had standards and would'nt compromise them.

Re: BX Driver key witness in Diana death trial
Twas I think the RSPCA that came out after their (other side) neighbour called them regarding the bad neighbours cat (ill with cat flu and nothing been done about it) but the RSPCA gave notice about their visit so he had a big clean up and the RSPCA had nowt to go on.Way2go wrote:Weren't the RSPCA/RSPB involved before this happened Bandit?

TBH I just don't want any agro and so I keep putting any complaints off - till one day I'll burst a blood vessel.
What the RSPCA probably didn't know was that both their cats had no shelter provided which IIRC was a big no no.....

Re: BX Driver key witness in Diana death trial
I have no regrets really. Never did anything really bad....or good for that matter...mediochre that's me.
No! I have 1 regret. I never got my 911. I had a picture on the wall from when it first came out and swore I would have one someday

Bloody fragile clutches on those , one I had packed up in reverse trying to reverse back up a narrow incline after assessing the ford on the forward route would have flowed into the Porsch had I attempted to cross it!

Re: BX Driver key witness in Diana death trial
I would put a new clutch in every week if necessary.l
Douglas Valley Breakers, near me, have a rare turbo body (88/9), with targa top,It's been there for the last 5 years. If I could blag that off him, I really fancy having a go at building my own, with newer motor, G 50 g/box and more modern suspenders.

Re: BX Driver key witness in Diana death trial
Go for it Phil! If it has been dead money for the last 5 years then surely any money and the freed space is worth it to him.
Good time for you now for such a project.
