Oh dear Bounce bounce, you really haven't got the hang of this pprune thing have you?

The general idea is either to be informative or amusing, possibly both but I'm afraid you have managed snide and pointless instead.

Once you have mastered the basics, then you can move up to advanced levels of contentiousness and wanton slagging but judging by the quality of your first posts, this may be a long time in the future

Well that was the pot calling the kettle black, if I ever saw it!

Sound advice you're giving there crab. Some you might perhaps want to take advantage of yourself, if only for the sake of the other readers here.

Don't worry Bounce Bounce, I'll employ you. I run an 'agency' for the benefit of visiting wealthy Arabs and you'll be popular with the clients if you can live up to your name. There's good money to be made. It's hard work but you just need to grit your teeth and get down to it every now and again.

In the bar with an aquaintance plus wives. He worked for Shell and used to be a Chief Tech. The wives started discussing how useless men were at looking after themselves.
He turned to me and said. "The Air Force taught us how to look after ourselves, didn't they?"
I replied. "Not really, I always had a batman."
Ouch!!!!

I admit to nothing, this is not a court of law!
However, yes, as I said originally, we have had problems with the Goodrich Hoist. Mislayering leading to the hoist stopping mainly. With the cable not being visible, the first thing the winch-op usually becomes aware of is the sudden stop. Goodrich are looking at a "solution", un/fortunately? I am not party to that process so we will have to wait and see.
Why is it still fitted? Emergency use only!

Just for you then, Saint Evil..

Any truth in the rumour of an SK going tech and blocking the HLS at James Cook (Middlesboro) hospital?
