  1. Good one Andy, many moons ago nearly got yukked off the site for calling someone Richard Heed :dribble:
  2. Once again thank you to Tez, Pete, John and Brian cheers! I am working in Materials Handling and to tell the truth I was dreading being put on the production line! I did my trials there and there were doubts in my mind as to whether I could do this full time, but would have done it anyway, as it turned out I worried needlessly. The electric Leaf goes on sale in Japan and America next year, but, production in Washington is not expected to start for a few years. They are in the process of building a battery plant at Washington, to supply the Leaf with batteries. Tez if any employer tells you that you are too old report them, as it is illegal to discriminate against age. Don't give up hope, I'm 47 and there were a lot more older than me trying to get a job at Nissan and a few succeeded! If you can do the job and show it Nissan will try to help you regardless of age! The battery plant I mentioned goes into production early next year and there are in excess of 350 jobs on offer and Nissan are recruiting now. You can apply through the job centre or you can apply direct to Nissan (advert in chronicle) The best way I think is through the job centre as they and Nissan help to prepare you for the tests you do to get into Nissan. If you apply direct you are on your own! Thanks again and good luck to you all for the future and A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL! Am chuffed Cheers :dribble:
  3. There's still a few of us around. And Moby Richards doesn't quite sound right :dribble: Neither does: Richard Van Dyke Richard Whittington Richard Turpin Richard Emery Richard Dastardly etc........etc..........etc..............!!!!!!!! :whistle:
  4. Are MP's above the law................................YUP
  5. Cheers Stephen and Malcolm, now I'll not be required to clear snow off certain peoples' drives :dribble: For Sale: 1 unused snow shovel :whistle:
  6. The long drawn out process of getting a a job at Nissan is finally over....................I start on Monday :dribble: :jump:
  7. Even nil-nil's have to be entered :dribble:

    Hello and welcome millie
  10. Yet more shame for NCC
  11. so we get locked up for not paying cooncil tax! Where is the other side of the coin for not providing a service we are required by law to pay for!

    I'd rather watch paint dry
  13. The old adage 'It's not WHAT you know but WHO you know' still stands! 3G is right if you can get to see the boss and speak to him personally this works very much in your favour. I am in the process of trying to get a job with Nissan, this is a long and drawn out process. I think this is the first job I have tried for without being given the 'Nod' from someone I know. I promised myself that I was finished with production work and to work outdoors more, but, needs must. The hours are long, the work will be very boring but the pay is good and I've never been afraid to do something I don't want to and work hard at it. Good luck Tez and to each and everyone of you who are looking for work and 'Don't let the bastards grind you down'
  14. something upset you Malcolm?
  15. That's right it was the brick works not the pit ponds! Got mixed up there, it's because we used to go there for tadpoles and newts. Wonder how they got planning permission for a land fill with the newts being there?
  16. Barton, Whippet racing is usually in a straight line. Also I think the concrete road you are on about( The Lonnen,or could be Lonning) starts in the 'dip' in the road and runs all the way to Netherton past firstly 'Nelsons' farm then past 'Rutherfords' farm. There was a tip near Netherton many years ago, not sure exactly where though. Later on there was a landfill sited where the pit ponds were, but this was in the late 80's early 90's.
  17. Stuff Sharia Law! It's not wanted in the UK! Get back to when you do wrong you get punished not rewarded. Bloody good for nothing do-gooders
  18. Yes it is symptoms, though how much longer........especially when the Muslims, Jews, Blacks and Asians realise.........
  19. This has been on the news all day, unfortunately they didn't quite realise the point they were making! All roads in the N.E. were moving and no major problems are reported except in the Morpeth and Bedlington areas where roads are blocked and driving is extremely hazardous! Says it all really!
  20. had to look twice there, thought I'd been sleep typing :dribble:
  21. Human rights, bloody do-gooders and getting ya ass sued, springs to mind there Stephen! Personally, and yes you all know what's coming, I'd thrash the little bar stewards to within an inch of their pathetic little lives, make them clear their mess up then thrash them again just to get the message across. This poosie footing around with toe-rags must cease forthwith! Machine guns, wall and do-gooders :dribble:
  22. That's the point I was trying, in my perverse way, to get across! Once out of Bedlington roads were gritted, I'll not say clear, but they were bloody driveable FFS
  23. Let me know after you have tried it Malcolm
  24. Tez I have a knack of getting people hot under the collar and to blast hot air, so if my services are still required you know where I am :dribble:
