Remember once delivering some sheet metal to Lancashire, when I got to the place a wholesale butchers, there was a young apprentice hung be the scruff of his neck to the gates of the butchers, I stopped and helped him down, he said they are always doing stuff like that to me. I soon got tipped and got invited into the canteen,having a cup of tea when the young lad spewed up his tea,seemingly when he got near the bottom of his cup a large cow eye stared at him from the bottom of his cup!

Hi Maxhagar, I see you still like the quirky sense of humour, like the day you left spike [the dog] in my hallway I came in from work the f-in thing nearly ate me, all you could do was laugh.

Once went to Windscale Nuclear Plant with a hydroulic machine. Security said no dogs on site,it will have to go in the security gate post. {It was an eight stone cross doberman/rottweiller] Two minutes later the white faced security man came up running and stated the dog was mad and it and it had broken free in the security lodge and nobody dared to move either in or out!! What a set of willy woofters. The next night I was home and had an early bath came downstairs and the dog had been dressed in a nurses uniform and had make up applied by my five year old daughter. Got a 12 month old staffy cross ridgeback at the moment, he hates P???S!! Ibelt him with a Golly ■■■ every night !!

Hi Maxhagar [d----k] Does that one play catch the cat like the other lunatic.

Since were telling tales of what we did years ago, here’s on for you!, long before I came to A1 in the JG Fielder days in the 1960’s I’d had a few drops around Lancashire, a couple in Liverpool and just one drop of steel bars left on my last drop, I’d picked up a couple of drivers in L/pool who wanted a lift home for the night, and so they could get home they agreed that they’d give me a hand on my last drop, when I got to the firm they had gone home, so we unloaded the steel bars but having no-where to leave them we pushed them through the letter box in the office block, signed the delivery note with “Joe Blogs” then carried on home to Bradford empty, next morning I got the biggest bollocking of my life because the office staff couldn’t open the door and had to break in from the back, they said thanks for the steel and delivering it dry, but how the f"“k do we get in with 5 ton of steel bars 12ft long blocking the f”“king door, but at least the drivers were home and no-one gave a flying f”"k in those days. :-Jack
Don’t like to leave you all in the cold guy’s, but this time in 2 days I’ll be above the clouds 1 hour and 33 mins over the Atlantic heading to warmer climates for 6 weeks, but I’ll try keeping in contact from my sisters computer from time to time, just to let you know how warm it is in Jacksonville FL.
Thanks jack, that’s very conciderate of you

Hi Jeff,answer is no,after doing 24hr at a one an where I work now just the same,with days off still on the phone helping out getting a bit old for it now keith
Me and my big mouth!, but I must be honest it’s not as warm as usual here in Jacksonville, in fact it’s cold although I managed to put my shorts on this morning, and I’ve told them if it doesn’t warm up I’m on my way home tomorrow, and as far as getting you in a suit-case Kieth if I could you’d be with me now, one thing I could look back on was the car was frozen up on Monday morning at 50-30 am, and I was glad to leave it at home and let some-one else scrape it off.
I just hope it’s warmer down below Tampa for Friday when I head down there for the drag racing finals.
Catch you all next time. Jack.
