Recommended Posts

Thought there was a thread on here about it but can not find it Have threatened to post on here for the past couple of weeks about it after getting told from a very good source what was happening in that yard Was having trouble believing what i was getting told One of the first things was that the Scottish Gov hired a clueless c*** on  £800 000 a year Got it confirmed on the news today that it was true TBC

Is this about the P&O ferries or the Calmac shambles? Mental that “ferries fiasco” could be more than one current affair really.

Or the ferry company without any ferries?

I’m hoping it’s about the disruption to local residents and retailers caused by the flood defence work being carried out in Brought Ferry.

Back again got called out there The Cal mac shambles it is You would have thought it would be full steam ahead to get them finished  It seems the management are trying get to volunteers to leave the yard and go and work in another yard in the south of England on a short  term  contract  The engines have been sitting for 5 years and have never been started They are probably going to be taken out of the ships and replaced with new engines A very time consuming exercise cutting the ships open to get them out and a very expensive  Not sure what a engine retails at They have a new head guy  lined up but does not start until the autumn He is 68 year old and has had a lifetimes work in shipbuilding  Not sure what these engines use for fuel Some kind of gas no doubt as what ever it is Ardrossan did not have the storage facilities for it so 100s of Millions of £s had to be spent  in building storage for the fuel which arrives in the south of England and has to be brought up by lorry So much for going green Have got called out again to work  TBC!
