Every little helps I suppose. It’s a pretty wealthy club with a joining fee, I know they won’t be short of funds. I wonder if there is insurance for this level of damage?

I'm irritated at the thought of Harry settling for a heap of cash. Hope he doesn't, but I'm ready to be more than mildly irritated by him (again)!
I'm not sure there is much going on in the heads of people who do this type of thing. It's utterly pointless.I wonder what drives someone to do it, maybe they got blackballed

The people that have done and not for the first time are from a local site that have some static vans etc

There'll be a petty grudge somewhere no doubt.

Far more likely that it is just an act of mindless vandalism imo.

That’s pretty much it
It’s a nice wide open space for those that don’t care about the laws to tear around on the quad bikes
It’s a regular occurrence on wide open spaces near certain sites

Doubt we'll ever know.
And so it happened. The top bosses again escape serious scrutiny and the 1,500 odd people 'he was acting on their behalf' don't get their moment. Ah well.
Our work is in a reasonable sized industrial unit. It is heated by 2 oil fired air heaters, one at each end of the factory. The key heater, at the business end of the factory, started making a horrible noise last week. An engineer came out, industrial, oil engineers are like hens teeth up here which doesn't help matters, saw that the fan belt was trashed, turned off the heater, ordered a new one. 2 and a half days with minimal heat, the other heater doesn't get the heat up this end, and the belt is changed. Happy days, we are warm again. 15 minutes after he leaves it makes another racket. 'Oh that will be the bearings' said the boss after I sent a video down. The bearings were fine before, fine when the belt was fitted but now they are a problem 
. What doesn't help is that each visit incurs a big call out fee as they are 30 miles away, no one closer as they don't do industrial.......They are back tomorrow, the bill is starting to get ugly.

Fitting and tensioning the new belt could have caused the already worn bearings to totally fail, then again you can feel if bearings are on their way out so I'm surprised it wasn't spotted at the time.
The initial diagnosis was the bearings. Then he took the belt off, the belt was goosed, and it ran without noise. Put the new belt on, no noise. I'd have been happier had he said 'I'll change the belt and bearings at the same time', I suspect they are the originals so 30yrs or so. It's the extra faff which is irritating.
It's also bloomin cold without this heater on so we had two days of cold, now we have a day of warmth but irritating racket.

Following my wife's recent knee op I stayed at home for a few weeks (I'm like that). I found myself not knowing what day it was unless I checked my phone or paper. It reminded me of lockdown. I play Saturday, Monday and Thursday and didnt realise how much of a "compass" that routine is.
Round of golf and a bacon buttie?I could probably do the bearings myself for a small fee

It’s a shame once again that the rag will get away with it
Sooner they close it down the better
