The three amigos' or from Right to Left Dan, Edward And Myself on holiday last year September 2009 at a place called "Los Gigantes" in Tenerife. For myself and Edward it was too hot, hence the towel on my head and Edward who stayed in nappie trunks only for most of the holiday (except at breakfast) and Dan who stayed cool as a cucumber throughout the whole week and even wore jim jams at night with a blanket.
There is no real reason for publishing this photograph in relation to work but I think all our expressions are quite funny and it is something I just wanted to share for prosperity.

Re-cycling centre

I have noticed that the waste centre at Raikes lane has been closed to the public for the last 2 day's but I do not know how long this will go on for. So if you need to get rid of an old washer or other metal waste then give us a call and we will arrange a time that suit's you to remove it for you FREE of charge.
Unfortunately we do not remove fridges or TV's, thankyou.

Road works

I have just been over to Bury to pick a washing machine up from a very nice Lady in the Gigg Lane area. The A58 from Bolton has major road work's on it with 1 lane closed at the junction with Tottington road. It is causing long tail back's so add some time to your journey if you have to take this route.

Excellent Customer Service at MWS

At MWS we aim to achieve excellent customer service by picking up end of life products such as (Cooker's,Washer's,Boiler's,Radiators and Car Batteries) from the general public of Bolton and the surrounding areas in a prompt and polite manner. We will always try and arrange a time that best suit's the customer and endeavour to remove all item's in 1 go where possible and if we can be of assistance in any other way we will always try and make time to suit the customer's need's. This may be in the form of advice or helping in some other way that is not linked to the removal of scrap metal.
If you are in doubt about what we remove and the area's we cover just give uo a call and we will call you back or alternatively send an e-mail enquiry via the web site.

Pot hole

There is a deep pot hole in the middle of Breightmet lane near the new Doctors surgery.

Pot holes

If you value your car in any way then stay well clear of Osmund Avenue off Bury road just after the lights at Crompton Way. The pot holes in this area are unusually large and deep. They would not be out of place on Sailsbury common after an army exercise in mortar bombardment!

Sunken drain covers

There are 2 sunken drain covers going up Winchester way and the junction with Waggon road.

A6 single file traffic

I have just been over to the scrap yard in Manchester and noticed a rather large hole in the road just before the exit to Pendelton. Also a little further along the A6 reduces down to single file traffic going into town.

Single file traffic

There are gas line replacement works going on in Campbell Street,Bradford Street and Plodder Lane so it is like the Bermuda triangle of road works at the minute with skips and heavy plant all over the place. There are long tail backs and you can expect hold up's throughtout the day.

Tuesday 2 March 2010

Re-surfacing works

There are major re-surfacing works taking place on Kirkebrok Road and the road is closed at both end's because it is full of skips and heavy plant.

New Camera

I was going to collect some scrap from Bury and noticed a new camera in front of the yellow camera on the dual carrigeway section of Bury road. The camera appears to be scanning the opposite side of the road but there are no marking's on the road.

I was driving towards the recycling site at Raikes lane and noticed the road on the bridge over the A666 has some deep pot holes. There are more on the bend as you entert the slip road to join the A666 towards town.

Gas main replacement

I have just picked a stainlees steel sink up from Aldercroft Avenue and the whole road/pavement is being dug up with a lot of large vehicles parked in the street.

Accident

It look's like there has been an accident near carr's pasties on manchester road so traffic will be slow.

Due to road works at the junction of Green Lane and Bradford Road the road goes to single file traffic in the direction of manchester road. It is also littered with pot-holes going across the junction.

Re-surfacing works

There are major re-surfacing works on Longsight lane in Harwood with the Stop/Go lollipops being used and we all know how much we (motorists) enjoy those.......
