Is that Gil in the white coat Lenny ? Did he ever tell you that I fixed him up with FOC Caravan parking in the heart of Lakeland on a number of occasions ? He ■■■■■■■ loved it ! I visited him once and he had his caravan nicely parked in a field of a Farmer friend, Baa! Baa!, and he couldn’t believe it , he was in ■■■■■■■ heaven ! can’t remember whether it ■■■■■■ downed sometimes but he was well made up ! Oh! and he wouldn’t have any other contractor delivering to West Thurrock but Bewick Transport ! But I’m not to sure what went wrong, was he nicked for running hi diddle diddle ? long time ago ! Cheers Dennis.
