Fair play to her.My own wife is pretty handy too.Helps out with the dozers some times.She's not too bad on a scraper box but can't seem to master the blade work.pic shows her about 13 years ago as an 18 year old rookie on her first day being taught by a driver.admittedly it was only half loads at first but by the end of the day she was running off the D9 that was pushloading.No ropes were broke either!!She runs the accountancy side of the timber business these days but has her forktruck ticket and can often be found unloading the waggons from the mill.

Hi guys,thanks for the comments, :thumbup:

Me and the boy did muck in aswell,( for fear of not getting fed!)
The job took 3 Years to complete!! doing a bit here and a bit there, you know how it is.
When the concrete turned up for the footings it was all hands to the pumps when the lorry first started to pour, but by the time it had finished i seemed to be on my own :eh:

I dont know why?
But the boy did good by the end :thumbup:

he is now a fully fledged 1RB operator.
