Really interesting project that. The company I work for won one of the contracts in a JV. Hoping I don't get dragged down there although I'm sure it would be amazing experience.

Although petrol engines may have caught up a little with diesel over recent years I think if you do a lot of miles (I've done 8500 since mid October) you can't go wrong with a diesel still. I got a Merc A-class CDI in mid October which costs around 70 quid to fill up, a tenner more than my old VW Fox, for 200-250 more miles per tank.

So spent the day walking around 6 or 7 building sites working our way back up to Newcastle meeting people I'd never met before with everythin

Havent played 11 a side 'til about the start of 2009, but used to play work 5-a-side which I loved but that's stopped now. Really want to get back in to playing whe

Such a t***. Haha, wouldn't expect anything less from reading the last few months.

Mainly Prudhoe?
