    So a couple of children half a dozen rides each in 30 or so minutes = 3 or 4 hours of minimum wages....

    Our 2 went on 3 rides each, burger, chips, pop and some sweets. Nowt left from 30 quid. It was rammed, must have made a fortune.

    We did, however manage to catch 10 little tiddlers from the river which I was mighty proud of. Catch and release of course. :emoticon-0165-muscl

    Graft till 10 tonight. Possibly going to phone the radio station to explain to the DJ that believe it or not not everyone works Monday to Friday 9x5 in an office including every bankholiday off. To all off today, have a cold one for me.

    Never mind Bank Holiday looked at the weather app, coast had the haar and was cool. So took g'kids to Hamsterley Forest... the world and his wife had the same idea, it still was fun. Long queues for an ice cream

    12 hour shift which meant 32 hours pay for the day. 12 hours double time - 24 hours + 8 hours holiday pay that’s guaranteed. :emoticon-0103-cool:

    Must admit I've done it a few times. ICI used to have some very good paying petro chem sites.
