With luck you'll be able to trim 'em "in place" with the nose of a chainsaw and just jemmy 'em over to take up the gap. Bugger stuffing around with an SCMS or mitre-saw for sleepers!

O' course, it depends on how you've fastened 'em to the posts.

He's a young fella remember, time goes slower for those young fellas, so they can fit more in the day. That's my excuse for getting less and less done each day anyway, and I'm sticking to it:D

ok

so i got up this morning and was nearly packed up ready to go fix this wall when the phone rang the grader had arrived on another job so i went down there and gave the driver instructions. by the time i got home it was 8.30am.

changed utes and dashed down to fix the wall got there and had a look some silly bustard had backed into the corner of the wall pretty hard and bent it so i unpacked all my gear and realized i had forgotten my crow bar witch i needed in the confusion. so i load back up and drive home grab the bar 9.30 by this stage. so i had smoko and drove back down.

10am before i got back on site. to Straitened up the wall i had to dig one post out this evolved a jack hammer and a lot of sweat then re set it and poor concreat around it again. then i checked the gaps. 2 of the gaps were about 10mm wide the rest were flush so i ran the bar of the chainsaw down these joints unscrewed the sleepers and slid them along no problems. so i packed up and came home 12pm by this stage.

had lunch and started to fix the slasher with is in need of a major rebuild. then i remember that i had 2 mowing jobs to do today.

so i put the trailer on load the mowers and whipper snipper and head off get to the first job at 1pm both jobs went smoothly enough (nothing broke down) by the time i got home and unloaded the mowers and took the trailer off it was 3.30.

i went back to fixing the slasher no sooner had i started teh welder than the phone rang. the bloke who owns the place i started the grader on this morning has a tank going in tomorrow and the bobcat never turned up to spread the crusher dust. so i jump on the tractor and put the front end loader on and head off its now just after 4.

i get there and the grader has made a right ballsup of the job and it all has to be redone (not my problem). i start to dump loads of dust on the tank site and the hydrolics are playing up and i cant smooth the stuff out so i dump it in piles on the pad and get a rake out of the blokes shed. it was bloody hot and i had 9 cubic meters of crusher dust to spread on a 10m square pad. Needless to say when i got home at 6 i was had it.

an the slasher still isn't fixed, so i gotta do it in the morning then do the jobs i had planed for tomorow.

but one thaught keeps me going after the 3rd of january ill be sitting in my boat fishing 3 weeks my annual holiday.:U:2tsup:

So what do you do on a busy day:?

So did he pay?

He should have paid extra for lying about the damage, and the extra effort you put in :~

cash will be waiting tomorow arvo.

So when are you getting time to cut all those trees up at the gap? I suppose you have some spare hours between midnight and dawn:q Or is that off now?

Donna

going over there this morning.

Hey Carl, any chance of throwing up a 40 metres retaining wall for me before Xmas? :wink:

:oo: Seems its true. If you want something done give it to the busiest person.:oo:

I'd be :sweat: and prolly:stretcher:.

So what do you do in your spare time, Carl.
