casual! last time i got escort was when me and the old man got pushed over buy a polish lorry driver and we went into the wrong toll gate so they shut the all the tolls and escorted us across!

Yeah man i know the ones you mean! i thought they had to be disassembled from site to site? rather then get transported in one go!

Built in Terax factory at Newhouse and shipped in a "ready to work" state.

The real big ones are shipped in pieces, chassis without wheels and the bucket seperate in either one or two pieces depending on size.

I was going to be a plant mechanic or HGV fitter. I was put of plant mechanics by the idea of working all hours on machines shitted up in god knows what in landfill sites, quarrys and fields.

Ahh fare enough makes sence know i thought they just came in "one size" sort of thing!,

And nahh they dont put me off one bit! sounds more exciting to be honest!

Fair play to you. I just didn't fancy lying in shit under a machine in the middle of night in the middle of winter.

Happy doing this. Still end up under the truck and trailer doing running repairs every now and then. Usually in a muddy field when its pissing down.

Yeah I want to do night work so bad!- yeah I guess you have your nice warm cab in the winter! Is it complete with a 24v xmas tree?

Nah, i don't bring christmas into the truck. I'm a bit of a scrooge. Putting trees and decorations up is just a fanny about in my opinion.

If it weren't socially shunned i'd probably work christmas day if i was asked to.

you wouldnt want to see my house then at xmas! Nah I must admit im not a lover of it! Only bits I like about is the family and alcohol!

So are you doing mechanics now?
