My friend and I left home at 05:30 this morning to get a good selling pitch, arrived at 06:45 and within five minutes was £150 better off and a lighter trailer by 11:30 when we left I had sold another £100 of engine bits and was a good boy and only bought six rolls of blue paper cleaning material, my wife was happy I didnt come home with another engine.

The money will go towards a VFD to upgrade my lathe.

Bargain trim tool for less than £150.00 quid

Bit sad, when I got my number drill stand(same make) it had all but two of the drills in it, cost me $NZ5 5 or 6 years ago, the bloke I bought it off said the drill were useless, they are all the wrong size.

It must be said that Worminghall Airfield is in the middle of nowhere and like Beds county council where I live in a village priority is on main roads and bus routes, my route via Aylesbury was not to bad.

We must remember there's a very important procedure in this country when dealing with pot holes. The Council will expect us to find them, usually with a wheel, and then report them. The Council will then send a surveyor out to measure the depth of the hole. If the surveyor considers it to be deep enough, a repair will be put out to tender to one or more private contractors. They will go to the hole and spray some paint round it and go home and work out a price. The Council will then choose the cheapest and give the contractor the job. They will then send a lorry with a bit of cold tarmac and two or three men and throw it into the hole and wack it with whatever they have on the lorry.

A few weeks later a motorist will hit the redeveloped pot hole………………
