I've done 13 years in the ambulance service, 10 of those as a paramedic. I worked Manchester south and east for 11 years, now I've relocated, taken semi retirement and look after two rural ambulance stations in Lancashire, Clitheroe and Barnoldswick. Some ace biking roads on my patch, A59, A65 etc etc. So if you're in that neck of the woods and see some knobhead in a yellow van nodding at you it's probably me, wishing I was on my  :faz   



It will be OK in the end. If it's not OK, it's not the end.

DAZZA....................... good detective work mate, you must have needed all your fingers to work that one out


BUT




I never said he made the original. I think he was three when that was made.
I used to not give a foc, then I discovered Red Bull and now I don't give a flying foc !!!

Electronics Engineer. I help sell, Install,  service and train folks how to use Acoustic Microscopes.  Covering Europe, Russia and India at the mo.  They're used mainly in the semiconductor industry in the quality depts. Using ultrasound to do non destructive analysis of electronic components / parts.  We inspect parts from Play station memory chips to solar panels on satellites, making sure there are no voids cracks delaminations that could cause the unit to fail. 
This week I've been mostly tinkering in the garage

Gamekeeper


Long unsociable hours,no days off including Saturdays and Sundays from July till February, can be hard graft.
Wouldn't swap it for anything.


I get to play with lots of equipment, night vision, thermal imaging, quads, argo cats etc.


Met a lot of nice people from successful business people, sports personalities, rock stars.


The picture shows a bit of my office  :D
Better to stand and look a fool than speak and prove it !
If it aint broke, I'll fix it till it is !!
