Good Morning Thread - Come say good morning, tell us what you've got on today. :)

We have this thread on TilersForums.com and it's just been restarted because the old thread had 20,000 replies and 500,000 views. And there were 700 pages. Started to lag a bit on slow connections.

I think we had a bash of this before, but I can't find the thread, so thought I'd start another one off.

If you have time in the mornings, come post in the thread before you head off to work, let us know what you've got on and what the weather is like in your area etc. Anything at all is fine.

Posts and likes get counted towards your total stats in this thread.

So GOOOD MORNING PEOPLE - WEATHER IS NICE TODAY IN STOKE. I'M THANKFUL IT'S FRIDAY, HAD A RUBBISH WEEK. THANK GOD IT'S OVER.

Looks to me like the ladder is tied at the top with cable ties. And rope at the bottom isn’t secure. Not safe.

If you’ve done the training, it’ll say only to use the internal ladder…

Good eyes. Yup cable ties. Not ideal.

but they're M&S cable ties.

Mud and Snow - like tyres?

?

Or an over priced shop?

 

[telectrix]

could try snow tyres on the Hiace, but it would still corner sideways on snow/ice. rear wheeel drive.

At least they are not S&M...

There are so many things wrong with the construction of that tower. I realise why the bar that the ladder is resting on is the wrong way around as the ladder would push it out but still.... The diagonals are not opposing and the tower is not secured with anchors in the wall, tut tut! Lucky you don't have the kind of people I do work for sometimes on your case. The platforms are wrong and no trapdoor.

The tower is fixed back to the wall, the platforms are not wrong and do have trapdoors and the ladder is as secure as it needs to be and only one diagonal not opposing, I knew it was a mistake to post that picture, just gives those argumentative types ammunition.

Just wait, won't be too long before someone starts shouting PASMA.



Edit:

Err thinking on that might be me then!! ???

 

[telectrix]

A bit like posting a picture of a septic tank and being reminded your terminology isn't exactly correct?

 

[Mike Johnson]

A bit like confusing a cycle, a car and an aeroplane all means of transport but do it in different ways.?

How about MEWP instead. ?

 

[telectrix]

MEWP? is that cat pi$$? 50 characters, wtf is this????????????

This morning I awaited a DPD delivery with great anticipation...
My new Unilites! They are fab!
Also, not that I want to be too partisan, but using the code from a well known sparky youtube site, I got 25% off...happy days!

Then I watched this:

and I thought...hmmm, would i let this guy work on my CU?

Then i had a game of tennis with some mates, and had a tasty lunch at my local real ale pub.
So, just a really good day for me...
I know...I need to get out more...
