Took my old (effin) heavy CRT 32" flat screen TV to the tip last year, (All 55kg of it). I asked one of four or five younger lads that were working there if they'd help me get it off the tale gate of the pickup and into the container where you're supposed to leave them. - they'd already stood watching me struggling to drag it on to the tail gate, by this point. All refused to help, quoting health and safety and manual lifting etc, which I guess is their right... But the guy that runs the dump came over and apologised, he's been there years, and recognises me, anytime I have "useful" stuff to throw away, I always took it over to him or his older mates, (presumably replaced by the lads) and asked if it was any good to them. I still see them using some of my bit and pieces in the cabins! Anyhow, he said sorry, there wasn't much he could do about the lads, they all knew their rights to the last dot. I must admit, I thought he was going to help me down with the TV, and felt a little bit guilty, but he just winked and said "if they think they know the rules better than me they'd better think on". Then he told me just to kick the TV off the back of the tail gate! It exploded in to lots of little pieces, which with great amusement, he made them all clean up.

Got the top gear presenter job?

Or maybe apply a Vinyl wrap if you can get it colour matched. If you do decide on 4, I can supply an appropriate trash can (otherwise known as my garage) .

Ok Graham see you there, anyone else?

I predict he will have a title in front of his name sooner rather than later - the late Monkey Man.

Yep I have a 4 speed rocket box, fresh from an SPC rebuild if you want it?

Nobody gets out of this alive. As long as you have enough dosh to do the things you want to do, anything else is a bonus. After 26 years in the military and able to get the early pension and paying off the mortgage I'm in the happy position of working as much or as little as I want for myself. The freedom of not being in the rat race is liberating and I have no desire to work for anyone ever again!

Wow, you guys worry far too much....in the grand scheme, absolutely everything we do is utterly and totally pointless.....enjoy your time however feels right for you. Just try not to be too much of a dick while doing it and I reckon you've done all you could.

Are you working for the BBC now Terry? Starts at 1:34: Personally wouldn't use the kerb on the left on the exit of the first chicane, it really upsets the car and prevents you getting the power down, which is very important at that part of the track. Another one you could look at - slightly different lap format but has all the elements in there if you skip the bit from 0:25mins to 1:30mins:

Mine came by email, and Paul now has them by email. Mind you, you need a magnifying glass to read the entry list!!
