The Iron Heart Forum Triangle of Terror Type III Trucker Tour 2018 - Updates thread
-
Yesterday Kirsty put a beef stew on in the slow cooker, which was delicious last night. Had that with mash and spring greens (my favourite)
Today I’m out early’ish with the dog as I’m on a first aid course this morning. I’m off on my HV (High voltage) course in a few weeks, so have to do it as part of that. I’ll be introducing the terror to ‘resus annie’ later.

Everyone who chipped in to buy it can tour it as long as it lasts. Although it may not survive another trip to @steelworker. I know it's IH, but in Pittsburgh even death may die
@bryaneidins70 great start mate, that stew looks tremendous.

Sounds good to me.

Sorry for the lack of updates…
So I went on the fits aid course which was fairly interesting in parts, just waiting for someone to have a minor cut now so I can put a plaster on :D. As said this was in relation to a course i'm doing in a couple of weeks. We have 11,000v on site and after the course ill be able to switch our High voltage switchgear. This is one of 4 rooms with the same gear.
Lost a good friend/work college last week to the big C. A very fit man who woke up one day went to the loo before he left for work and pee'd blood, turned out he had a tumour in his kidney which he new nothing about. I don't own a black suit and feel people deserve a bit more than black, so went bit peaky blinder style.
The weather was lovely yesterday afternoon so thought id take the bike out but the bloody battery was flat, so came in cooked dinner while listening to Slowhand.
Sorry no pics of the jacket in action, I'm going out on the bike today after charging the battery overnight, so it will be on today.

I'm not getting much use out the jacket so ill move it on to the next person this weekend, I think @tmg you're next.
Pm me your address and ill get it sent out.
-
Whos next on the list for this jacket @tmg @spitfiredealer ?
-
I am happy to take it next if people want. Think it is going to be a bit big on me so the more layers I can get under it the better.
If I take it, I will wear it to work in so be warned it will get a beating.
-
cool @spitfiredealer . Pm me your address and i'll get it in the post to you Tuesday.
-
Sorry for the delay in getting the jacket to Layton.
It's packaged up and going in the post tomorrow.
-
Jacket was waiting for when I got home today. Thanks to @bryaneidins70
Threw it on and took the dog out
First impressions about it:
The size is one bigger than my standard 526L, so the sleeves are a bit long and it is roomier than I would usually want but this will make it perfect to work in. The extra room will allow me to move easier.
The feel of the denim is so soft compared to my standard 526L it honestly feels like a different material. It makes me wanna wash the hell out of mine to try and get it as soft.
This will be coming to work with me on Monday so expect it to get dirty soon
