I have to say though, that if you put your 'elf 'n' safety hat on, you'd have a field day. how many times have you climb a stack of 3 or even 4 cars to remove **** and the whole thing is gently swaying in the breeze?  :-?  :-?  :-?  :-?  :-?  :y
That's what the Apprentice is for nowadays.  ;D

Now I'm aware that you're refering to TonyGnome, but, maybe you've struck a chord here John, could it be that the Government and the HSE are in cahoots with a new apprentice scheme, and, this is one of the trials in Cheshire :exclamation

Well done Gordon Brown, Well done.....  ;D ;D

I hereby vow, NEVER, NEVER to set a foot in that place again  >:(

This how it works there now, you go to the desk, tell them what you're after, they tell you the cost, you pay a deposit, they send the little Polish man to fetch it from the stores or off the car.

What sh1t !  :-X

They say that all scrap yards will go the same, I told them to "F*** O** in no uncertain terms"  ::)   "It's Health & Safety, Sir!"

"F*** O** again and goodbye!"  was my reply ;D

Sorry to let it out on here, just warning you all, avoid, avoid, avoid!
( Not me! )  That Bl00dy place...

Car Transplants pull your pants down anyway. What are you after Dave, I will take a walk around the scrappy near me and see if they've got what you want ;)

Pete, just after a few bit's n' bob's for my Transit Connect, it's just nice to have a rummage..

Just waiting to have the van sign written now...  nearly ready to go, just in case you weren't aware I took redundancy from BT, setting up back in my original trade, Intruder Alarms, CCTV, Telephone Extensions / Systems... at college at the mo' too, just doing 17th Edition Wiring Regs... bitting and bobbing with electrical too..

Sorry for the outburst ;D ;D


Apart from all that, pretty much sorted now...

DC ;)

My local scrappy is like a main dealers - you ask for the part, they check availability on their computer system, if its in stock you pay and a few minutes later it arrives, clean and packaged in a heat sealed polybag, with a part nş sticker on, all before your receipt is printed out.  Any problems with any part and they will exchange or money back  :y

Not as much fun though as wandering round with your toolkit  :-?
