Absolutely not!

[Lotz-A-Landies]

Absolutely not!
It is just that I have a number of friends in IT (none of them also into Land Rovers however) and most of the boys in the group are gay, and they refer to themselves as "Hairdressers of the new millennium". Their words not mine.

In fact one of them wrote it on an immigration card at Heathrow - the immigration officer was not amused, the other one suggested he was a refugee from the Sydney Olympics (It was September 2000) and that almost got him deported. :):):)

So no offense intended! :(:(:(:(

We put in new prestart check procedures about a month and a half ago.

In the morning you have to fill out a form that you have checked:

Hours
Eng Oil
Hyd Oil
Tyres
Safety Switchs
General Condition

Friday last week, the third year ask me how to open the bonnet of the Daedong tractor,

The Thursday before the 2IC asked the same for the Kubota,

Yesterday one of the Labourers asked how to check the Hyd oil in the Greens mower.

They are only asking the questions now as they have been fudging the forms for a month or so and so I started walking up and asking them to show me lol.

They are all good blokes most of the time but sometimes they astound me as to how they manage to make it through a day.

By the way, all have been through extensive one on one training on each machine in the operation, maintenance checks and safety for OH&S and have been signed off so now Im thinking about doing Damo's School with them to make sure it sinks in.
