He does our flintlock and mortar shooting stand and many other events all over the country if you like the smell of gunpowder and don’t have any eyebrows this could just the opportunity for you. An interest in 17th century weaponry and a need to dress up is advisable.If you think you would be able to work with the cheeky iratable old bastard please give him a ring ( don’t contact me )![]()

SAT 18th MORNING HALF DAY.![]()
Check out the Range Rover wing mirror go airborne and something whack my bum.
It’s the twin half day tomorrow and I think we’re ready. It’s been like a three ring circus this week. I guess I need more staff, some with experienc on the sort of military vehicles we use.
We’re still racing against the clock but it looks like we’re on target with the last 7 snatches. young Jackson is as confused as I am about having a favourite type of vehicle.![]()
We have some half day driving vouchers spare for Saturday June 18th and I forgot to mention the best driver gets to crush a car in The fast and furious 6 tank.
Sunday is family day.but not Sunday night shift. We’re one day ahead now, it’s all about drying time.
Don’t you wish you had a half mile public foot path with hedges either side needing chopping back with just a petrol hedge clipper. Why do I feel pooped.
Very nice to do a corporate day, it’s been a while. Nice to get good drivers,it really makes our job so much easier. A repeat customer, bless um.![]()
Little wifey did great and so did the rest of the team.![]()

A corporate day tomorrow, are we ready. I really hope so. Tanks a lot has changed direction recently. Trust me it’s only temporary.![]()
