If you could go back?

No regrets ,made some lifelong mates + fantastic times would do it all again :bigsmile::bigsmile:
 
Would assume most of you lads are still on the spanners, STAY THERE!! dont go into supervisory or management position's. If you do then the fun and satisfaction will be taken away from you, you have been warned:unsure:
Best years of my life out on the spanners, oh how I want to turn the clock back
 
out of all the posts i have read on here this one is the best
to know you guys have a love of the job a passion and pride is and could be a real inspiration to all those comming into the game .
i have heard so many people with regrets about their working lives wishing they had changed or could change cos ive had a few diffrent jobs untill this one (even though i am no scaffolder)
its a special bunch of blokes that are know as Scaffolders
well done to one and all

I still had some fun and some great memories and incidents when I was in management.
Certainly being on the spanners can be more satisfying but I wouldnt change a thing about my chosen career. Might make a few different decisions about wives etc if had to do it all again.

still with my hubby after 32 years mind you it took me 20 years of living with him raising our family befor i asked him to marry me he said yea out of shock and i marid him the same day proper suprise wedding only the vicar and me knew :love::love::love:
 
haha, sounds like the right way to do it but do they not call that entrapment over the pond?
 
Glad i did'nt walk by,just think i should've walked out and kept on walking about the 20 year mark,had some great craic over the years,decent wages too and memories that no other trade comes close too.
But the big 50 is fast approaching,so what the fec does a scaff with his ever increasing list of feced up body parts do then?
Maybe some rich retired scaff might put his feced up old hand in his pocket and open a retirement home fer ex-scaffs on a tropical island with young naked blondes serving cold ones all day while your watching the footy.:D
