When I got up this morning and saw the “different light” shining through the bathroom window my heart sunk. According to the weather forcast it wasn’t supposed to snow in Birmingham today. Usually I greet snow like a small child on a sugar rush but this was the first time I’d actually be working in it. Turned out I was wrong to be concerned. It was bloody great fun! Not only did the baths slide nicely along the ice but we were able to piss about in the knowledge that we weren’t really expected to do quite as much work today, what with most of the litter being covered in snow all morning. And it being a Friday. Still managed to get a good couple of tons though. Anyway, here’s photos!
Driving to the first job in an 14 ton truck on fresh snow very slowly.
Garage where we were clearing.
We started clearing this pile of crap on Thursday but couldn’t finish it because of the snow covering all the litter. Too many bricks to do by hand – will have to be done with a JCB.
Nice almost ceremonial looking pile of wood.
Car with bin bag in snow.
The waggon.
Saw this bollard while Marc was placing a bet. Liked it.
I like the fact that you don’t drive a car, but you do drive a huge truck at work…
Oh, that’s not me driving! That’s Marc. I can’t drive. Well, I’ve got a motorbike licence but definitely not an HGV one.
Oh dear, a phoenix 2 – you have my sympathy!!!!
