Well the weekend has landed and this means what. So far sitting in the cold damp dojo waiting for the rest of the clan.
But yet what will today’s flavour be?
Ju jutsu
Ninpo
Bikken jutsu
Jo jutsu
Hanbo jutsu
Roku shaku no jutsu
Or all the above and more.
Or perhaps a meta physical discussion on the why and wherefores of duck fighting a harder.

No one knows the answer to this until the morning truely begins.
P.s Facebook is down 😉

So we got on site for 7:30am so we would be ready for the first session at 8am, then spent the day doing the same old same. Having everything ready for that day and the next.It was dress down day at the Manchester office on the Friday so that was nice thing to be part off.  On thursday we finished at 4pm to get back to Head office for me to pick up a vehicle, so i got and old managers executive 307, it looked like my 207 but fatter.It was ace and it meant I could drive in comfort.
So an 5am start to try and miss the traffic !! Yeah right still got caught in the pit of dispear called Birmingham. My new helperwas an hour and a half late. As he was carrying the Parts Arena SD Cards this would mean  the sessions would be running late. But as the day went on we caught up with out  further delay, all though the prize gem from one repair engineer was,
“Why do we need printers”, Me “To print the CP12s”. Engineer “Whats a CP12”. So the basic thing a Gas engineer should know is the gas safety certificate for the house… But no this is not the case.
On tuesday i had noticed the Van was showing the wrong Road Tax, so during day I was trying to find out where the tax disc was. I nipped ouside for a break  and spotted a Cop car driving around and then it parked up outside the offices, to my paranoid mind this Policeman was lying in wait for me to then book me. So I left the Van onsite and shared the driving with my  new helper. We left the office at 4:30pm and finally gout out of Birmingham by  6:30pm
2 hours to drive nowhere!! Due to us both being in Manchester tomorrow I dropped of Mr Davies in wrexham and carried on home, with the agreement I’d pick him up at 6:30am the next day 🙁
From all accounts the Wirral’s first day had gone well and there where only 3 session on the tuesday and as all the devices had been boxed and assetted this meant it was great to keep on top of the admin side and field the usual barrage of calls from the Subcontractor co-ordinatar.
Sorted some admin stuff out in the office, then set off for Birmingham branch was on site by 11:30am and finished by 2pm, on the drive home got a call form the office saying I needed to bring the van back as it was schedule out. So I changed Vans and thought I had checked everything.
