Come on how goes it?

I’ve always done heavy industrial work (quarrying & steel) but I’ve been following this thread out of interest, so totally different to what I’m used to.

Having lived in a small farming community I know what they’re like, I’d get asked to do the odd “foreigner”. Usually I’d manage to wriggle out of doing them, but I got roped in a few times. My usual ploy would be give them a list of items required and the numbers of the wholesalers and leave them to haggle over the price. My fee was on top!
 
Good job your in Durham otherwise I would get upset, you wouldn’t know about the hamlet of Pikehall in Derbyshire.
 
You must have been well lost, most people notice the grass ridge in the middle of the road!
 
This is totally off subject, if ever you are in the Chapel-en-le-Frith area of north Derbyshire, have a look for “The Wanted Inn” at Sparrowpit. When I first started drinking in there it was spit & sawdust, farmers in sh*t covered wellies. Carl, my son, took clients there for a meal yesterday, when I met them later they couldn’t stop talking about the food. Pikehall is about 1½ mile away.
PS the “Wanted” got it’s name from the fact it was up for sale for 6 years!
