Friday at last, and all the wagons at rest (apart from a bit of shunting over the weekend…)

Spending the weekend at Donington for WorldSBK yet can’t help looking at the scaffolding 🤦‍♂️🤣

At Sunday church the local Vicar explains that he must move on to a larger congregation that will contribute more to the church. There is a hush within the congregation. No one wants him to leave because he is so popular. Fred Smith, who owns several car dealerships all over

A lazy Saturday morning enjoying the sunshine, and the latest Truck & Driver magazine with James McCann featured

When you pull rank and decide to take the truck to the Convoy show at Donington Park, yet somehow volunteer yourself to do a delivery on the way home 🤦‍♂️😆

ISL are expanding with an intake of 20 Scaffolding Apprentices, most being 16 year old school leavers. With W@H Safety Solutions they have completed a week long induction course, and shortly commence courses on the Vincent Rajkumar apprentice scaffolder scheme NASC Scaffolding 👷🏻‍♂️👷🏻‍♀️ #ItHasToBeNASC

Chicken wings and bunny’s lugs I’m familiar with, but pizza boxes and hedgehogs are new ones from the scaffolders. What do you call your Layher UK components ?

A few work in progress pictures from our project at Culture House, a new public library and event space in Sunderland, for Kier Construction. The external access scaffold, along with the large atrium birdcage, have been erected using Layher UK Allround scaffolding.

These banners have been in place for months now Hotel Indigo Durham and yet nobody there seems to have realised they should be the opposite way around to match the rise of the staircase parapet…

I’d like to congratulate Donald Trump on this latest, and most well deserved award.
