I think it's acceptable on a Friday night to be up late making some noise though.
The law stipulates 11pm iirc.

Real jobs don't make you work on a Saturday.
Jobs that pay about £30 an hour Saturdays and £40 Sundays make it worthwhile.
or you can earn that on a week day and not work weekends.........quite happy doing that tbh.

Both neighbours and all occupants work, same as in this house

Very true. Dom's so busy at work all the time earning big bucks that he has the time to come on here and have mass debates.

Is it quite an automated procedure Ben at ford? Just sort of oversee the production line doing its tasks?

Still quite manual tbh. Few robots in each area. Our robots torque flywheel bolts up and also remove the engine from the line.
Sort of arm like robot like the ones you see on the car production line advert. Pretty fascinating to watch actually.

Well, we had the storm finally.
Wow. Best/worst storm I've witnessed in the UK at 230 this morning. Shame it was all sheet lightning though, lit up the whole sky
Did we? I slept through it completely. Had the bedroom window wide open and everything
How the hell?! It was mental last night. Went on for at least half hour, lightning every few seconds
It was striking just outside Ashbourne like crazy; hitting trees, lamp posts, the quarry works as you say, every few seconds, I've never seen such rapid fire lightning.

Quite annoyed I missed it if I'm honest.

I'm a light sleeper.
Ah ha. Must be exceedingly light Ben if a neighbour cooking would wake you

As a young graduate several years ago now, I was being charged to the client at £671 offshore rate per day. I was getting a £45 uplift on my salary for each day. They were coining it in. Overall, they were making nearly £500 per day profit on me based on white book rates. Disgusting
Didn't even give me my Saturdays back in lieu either. Still bitter about it.
