No one working over the Christmas holidays this year then??

[R G]

Im on call tomorrow for council street lighting. They are paying me a whopping £30 for the bother ! But If I get called out its double pay min 4hrs & a day off in lieu so wouldn't mind a nice little 'easy fix' for an hour tomorrow afternoon

Pass on the phone number to someone you know mate

I remember the one , it was posted by fuzzydunlop and he reckoned his mate was going to get 18k for three days cover !

It was a reply in a thread that I had started , to moan about getting a callout at about half ten at night on Christmas Eve which was 130 miles away back down in Bucks .
I then had one come in on Christmas morning as well !

That's the one!!

Was it £18K, so my recollection was underestimated then..lol!! I knew it was something totally preposterous, must think we had all just come up the river or something!! lol!!

Only had one call out ths year. Christmas eve call from a Bupa care home we did some bits for a while ago. Tree fell down on the overhead lines taking out l1 ans l3. Had to juggle the sub mains around a bit to get their essential services back online then will have to go back in a week or two to put it back when the lines have been fixed. I do like an emergency call out!
