You ( of course ) took pictures of the procedure to show us all how its done and so we can see the before and after gasket, ----- right ?

Took an  morning ride to Seaways cafe at Fridaythorpe then carried on to Bridlington for fish and chips, home in time to pick grandson up for school. Nice to feel the sun again.


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - dazza - 04-05-16

Handed my notice in at work over being focced over for money then made the most of the sunshine and rode over the South Downs. New start on Monday, better money so I couldn't give a foc.  8)


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - slappy - 04-05-16

"Handed my notice in at work" Smile, feels wonderful when you can do that and have something else already lined up.
Did the same thing 14 years ago and still remember the over the top reaction from plant manager, I honestly thought he was going to have a heart attack.


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - dazza - 04-05-16

Oh yes, been ignoring the petty mindedness so far. Not even bothered about the money, it's the principle. The best bit though is I appear to have started a mass exodus. :\  Big Grin


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - HarryHornby - 04-05-16

It must be the season for it.  I resigned 2 weeks ago after 12 years in the job, I'm currently on 2 weeks "gardening leave".  It a weight off my shoulders now I've resigned  Smile

Where about were you on the South Downs cos I saw a yellow Fazer on my way to Portsmouth today.



Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - tommyardin - 04-05-16

All these guys handing in their notice, well I'm retired although my daughter says I'm retarded not retired, makes you glad you sired them. :lol
Hope it all works out for you guys.
I retired last May, just a year ago now, I worked on untill I was 68 but packed up because of crumbled wrist bones, I worked in construction a Brickie and the Doctors said it was Impact and rotation damage but I still think its been to much other wrist action LOL :evil

Not unless you went via Maidstone  Big Grin  Actually, I say South Downs, I meant North Downs. They just happen to be in the South East of England... That always throws me.  :lol

Right........yous are all sacked!!!


Oh yous already left :\ ....


Funny how all yous foccers jacked it in when the sun is out eh.


Seriously though i've got at least 35 years to go until i can retire but im still all for power to the people.....posts like the above will become ever more rare while the tory boy, oxygen depriving, cum snorters are running our companies......they think that we cant or wont leave & although it is sad to see good folk go it is utterly satisfying  to prove the posh knobs wrong 8)


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - dazza - 04-05-16

You are spot on there  Noggy.  This is the problem we have got..... My industry, the London Underground is full of Eastern Europeans, Nigerians, South Africans and more recently Western Europeans. Some of them have made England their home and others are using England to earn enough money to have a luxury home built in their own country after only 5 years graft. Some of them are working for 65 a shift and living 6 to 10 in a shared house reducing their overheads.  As for paying tax, no they are not. They are all using Bulgarian accountants or now outlawed managed service companies and paying the minimal amount of tax they can get away with.
Employers are trying to use this to devalue our worth and make us feel lucky we still have a job giving them the leverage to fuck us over for money and reduce our rates.
I say...... Fuck them, Fuck the government and Fuck anyone who dares to call me a racist. Give me Quality over quantity every time and just like getting the fuck out of Europe, sometimes, you've just got to have a bit of confidence in your ability to make the best out of an uncertain situation when you know you are being fucked over by remaining in your current one.

Good on you mate, good on you......your post isnt racist to me.........it is the head sheds that have engineered the situation for their own needs & while yes a little bit of integration is acceptable what they are doing in places is making them actually completely foreign which in itself isnt actually all that bad if you are servicing a foreign customer but i still doubt that this is the case albeit we all know that migration has hit unnoficial highs it is still the minority...surely there are more british born using these services than non british born?.....so why should the minority control..........the real reason is like you say......to drive down your wages & who knows maybe they can retire a few years early...to me it is that simple....wankers being in control trying to better themselves while the rest of us fight & pick up the pieces.

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - dazza - 04-05-16

I admit it was a bit of a vent but I make no apologies Tommy. If I was retired it would probably bore me too but then I've always been a selfish bastard  :lol


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - nick crisp - 05-05-16

Took it in to pass it's MOT  Big Grin


All ready for Europe now  Smile


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - HarryHornby - 05-05-16

I went out for a ride with Dazza to Headcorn Airfield.  Went down some cracking roads and I even managed to get a lick on round the twisties, I must be gaining confidence  Smile


While we were watching the planes another Fazer turned up, a chap called Phil, nice chap.  He should be introducing himself on here soon and joining us for some LOFO rideouts.  :thumbup


While we were chatting we even got our own acrobatic display for about 20 minutes.


A cracking afternoon out.
