Guest stewie Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 some good replys there cheers all :thumbs: i think alot of the wrong uns at it will always come and go but they get thinned out when they get busted robbing something, caught with illegal motors or running on cherry, no waste licence etc and i hope they do!!!!! my local scrap yard is brilliant the manager is a top guy and will ban anyone who brings stolen stuff in and he sends me out to collect any scrap thats not worth sending the skip wagon to which pulls a good bit of cash in each month!!! right time to take the dogs then fire up the beast an see what today brings :clapper: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

spep21 0 Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 Its hard enough to earn a quid so whatever you are doing, if it pays the bills then fair play to you. Best of luck. Some of my family into scrap so I haven't got a problem with them at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
