Bane! For crying out loud when are you gonna realise that it is a mistake to ask Carter to elaborate on anything! Our servers are struggling with the epic posts he submits. I can hear the cogs grinding to a halt in Canary Wharf as I write!

Where do i start.... haha was part of a team that backed a magic carpet into a brand new 200k freezer.

evactuated a towerblock in the city of london, causing not one but about 15 fire engines to turn up.

evacuated a huge retail shop in lakeside on opening day.

cant think of many more of the top of my head but sure theres more, none really cost me money more pride haha

Carter

Did he turn up next week in a new car? just curious.

Stripped out a motor manufacturer's ancient electroplating shop once when an apprentice, just me and a spark. Row after row of baths all fed via 3" SOLID copper busbar, every 10 ft there was a 5lb solid bronze double-bolted coupler, miles of lead sheath armoureds. Their in house mainenance team refused to do it having got suddenly very scrupulous about replacing light bulbs throughout the plant. And when we started into it we could see why.

Every conduit you cut into produced a drain down of chromium green liquid crud that filled the pipe. ffs I expected the hacksaw to start dissolving. So after a week of this sh*t we had a stillage of couplers, 3 pallets of lead armoureds each 5ft high and the jewel in the crown 50+ lengths of the busbar ready for its rendezvous with our flatbed truck. Two happy sparks on poets day? with the thought of a nice little wedge on it's way, job wrapped up? where do you think we went. F*cking expensive pint that was. Maintenance men had the f*cking lot away, they must have been staking us out for days. Four and a half days covered in that sh!te plus the usual crud adhering to all parts of a 60yr old factory. That week I took home £24! b@stards, b@stards, B@STARDS!
