It was hard to believe it had just turned April when this weekend had snow recorded up and down the country. However, on a selfish note, the bad weather improves business for us, so long may the skidding and floods continue! It’s less than pleasant in my wee go kart of a car so it’s divided loyalties for me though. Employee of the Month went, for the 2nd time, to star apprentice Andrew Etherson. Andrew is keen to try to anything and has been helping out on the mechanical side to gain some experience. He would normally be doing his Coachbuilding apprenticeship work but he has shown he is capable of working flexibly. Andrew also has some housekeeping and health and safety responsibilities outwith his own remit of working safely and this would not normally be something your would associate with a 2nd year apprentice. Well done and thanks to Andrew. You’ll see his mugshot on www.colinhutton.com The Commercial Vehicle Show starts 15th April at the NEC in Birmingham and we have most of our Management putting in an appearance at some stage. If you are going, get in touch and I will arrange to meet up at some stage with a refreshment if you can make it. Alex McLean is down for most of the week ensuring our Customers are well looked after – he tells me he likes a restaurant called The Pink Rhino which I’m told is nice classy establishment for a business dinner! We had a wee shocker last week when Trailershop Manager,Allan Hendry had a car accident on the Kingston Bridge. A good few hours in A & E getting spinal X rays thankfully came up with no life threatening damage but he has been off ever since and is still struggling with Miss Whiplash and sore legs. Thankfully he only has wee short ones so that must be less painful! As a ‘get well soon Allan’ and a wee funny dig at the NEC dolly burds, here’s a wee joke: A blonde had just gotten a new sports car and was out for a drive when she cut up a trucker. He motioned for her to pull over. When she did, he got out of his truck and pulled a piece of chalk from his pocket. He drew a circle on the road and told the blonde to stand in the circle and not move. He then went to her car and cut up her leather seats. When he turned around she had a slight grin on her face, so he said, "Oh, you think that's funny? Watch this." He gets a baseball bat out of his truck and breaks every window in her car. When he turns and looks at her she has a smile on her face. He is getting really mad. He gets his knife back out and slices all her tires. Now she's laughing. The truck driver is really starting to lose it. He goes back to his truck and gets a can of gas, pours it on her car and sets it on fire. He turns around and she is laughing so hard she is about to fall down. "What's so funny?" The truck driver asked the blonde. She replied, "When you weren't looking, I stepped outside the circle 4 times." Just a wee joke girls. Have a good April.
