So your spending your time off the board to make more (heavier) pirks then tony ....... ::

I Jest mate ....... understand fully, but dont let the b*****ds grind ya down ....... I know , I`ve been there (am there).....

[Norman]

Just a stupid exaple ...... but Imagine the scenario, major aircraft company requiring a particular BIT (big bit) by a particular date (good friday) ..... they spent thousands on flying people up to see me to put pressure on to improve delivery (flights, hotels, meetings etc.) to walk away with a promise (under pressure) of a lead time of 13 days instead of 14 days ie i`d deliver thursday instead of friday..................... it happenned !!!!!!! ...........
however here we are now a week later and the part is still in their works unloaded because they havnt cleared the paperwork I understand tony .......... as I say dont let them ............... &^()(&)&%^%£(^^$£
just think of days off fishing.

[DaveMason]

Been in that movie Norman

[Norman]

yeah dave , I`m sure you know ..... this of course was just the easter episode, The movie is repeating every week .. LOL still it keeps the mind sharp LOL

thats why it`s good sometimes just to get out there fishing away from it all

[mark]

Been thinking about this for a couple of days now, whats the origin of the phrase \'deadline\'??? Anybody know???

I\'ll wager it\'ll have some ancient nautical connection, which makes it apt for here

[Ell]

Norman, next time you feel your aching bones aint up for the job, just flip the contract Ellwards. I\'ll charge \'em 20% more, I\'ll sub it out to you and you can stand me a pinty of Shady (spelt right) on the Zet.

An offer you can\'t refuse
