Morning Paul,
Thank you for posting those cracking road scenes, the Oliver Hart Octy has given that bus a good wack, looks like he has bent the trackrod on the first axle, Cheer's Pete.

[pete smith]

Where are you Pete ? Have you fallen in a Roro or has Roger impounded you ?

Edit Happy birthday m8 , 49

Morning Dan,
Thanks for the birthday wishes, left my phone at home, will ring you later on,
I have been out on the road last week doing holiday cover, couldn't get a decent driver so had to make do with myself.... all wise crack comments are most welcome!
I have been in Holmfirth for the week-end and yes Mr Webb I have enjoyed it, the beer is a bit over priced but it was Yorkshire! Cheer's Pete

Morning Merfyn,
Glad you are enjoying the photo's, there are just under 300 more to post, so hopefully there may be some more of T E Jones's, I know DeanB has posted some of Jones's on his Paul Gee Thread as well, Cheer's Pete

Hi Barry,

Morning old chap.
You pay for quality in Yorkshire tha knows.
No comment about you driving,I'm sure you know the job,hope you didn't fiddle yer timesheet.

[newmercman]

Pay? In Yorkshire? They'll have barriers out on the 62 to keep you out if you carry on with that kind of talk Chris.

.The only reason that barriers would be put up ont M62 would be to keep the Lancashirites out,and maybe wayward folk from Wolverhampton . And as for being tight,the Lancashirites would go next door to gas theirsens.They use black pudding as window sealant,that's why their winders fall out.

I second that , some great photos there the Kings Coss Halifax photo does it for me ,that MM8 could be going for a load of wool considering the amount of sheets he has but then again he could be picking up a loaded trailer , great stuff
