Steve "smudge " has got one, Kevin has the other.

pedlar is done in a few weeks, he’s had enough and is hanging his boots up.
i remember Pedlar packing it in once before,and getting a job at a golf course
Like the golf ball he bounced back!

Dead right glen,Steve is back on bulk tippers again with a brand new fh 460 subbing to George varney (Sherwood’s) he’d not so much fell out on the walking floor job as just couldn’t settle into the way the job was done. Once a tipper man and all that!
