The question being is Alton Towers still standing, they say no news is good news but im’e not sure having heard nothing since Monday night so Charlieone if you have survived it would be nice to here your ok and while your at it have you done QC’ on the delivery, hopefully here from you soon Buzzer.
So sorry for the delay in responding John. I have been in serious agony. Lying on my front having skin grafts to my at posterior. I am now restored to the bosom of my family. Those shallots are the finest I have ever tasted. One bottle has gone already as you have read. Where to I’m not sure but Tim Peake spotted a UFO doing about 22000 mph past the space station. I have been in contact wit the Wellow Wonder who thinks we have a good case. He advises me to sue everyone. Except Mrs M because she is such a nice girl.Further details to follow. Regards Charlie

No, we can’t add Elite Transport to the list of ‘Long departed Southampton Hauliers’. First of all Totton is a town in its own right so is not therefore, Southampton. May I also add that Elite Transport was never a Southampton Company. Furthermore
you emphasized that their drivers were from as far afield as from Hastings to Cornwall and a lazy load of ‘backstabbers’.
I hope that you are not insinuating that is the case with ‘Southampton Drivers’ because as a former employer I can verify that this is not the case and so can many of my colleagues I am sure. Come to think of it you are not from Southampton yourself
so perhaps you have got your name wrong and it should read ‘Backstabber’ and not backload !!!
Elite Transport used to have Southampton wrote on the cab and did carry containers off Southampton Quay. I will accept they were not a Southampton company they were owned by Dave White and Gary Bethel from Manchester, Gary Bethel coned Dave White out of his lottery win and when the money ran out sold the lot to Debens and bust them as well.
Sorry to of hurt your feeling, typical Southampton namby pamby…!

Hello nipper I can read you like a book. You are a ■■■■ taker. Just waiting for someone to bite. And it worked eh. I bet that you are a really nice guy. Although you talk funny. Regards Charlie
Reckon “backload” is or must be related to “carryfast” he always gets people to bite but think he may be a bit more eloquent, Buzzer.
Buzzer. I am not going to bite at backsliders catty remarks. As you are aware we Hampshire gentleman do not retaliate.

Hello Nobby.
Sad to hear about Bob. I always liked, got on with, and respected him. A good transport manager, if you had a problem and you were right and didn’t lie to him, he’d stick up and fight your corner for you, try and ■■■■■■■■ him and you got a bollocking…he sacked me two or three times, but I was always “re-instated” a few hours later !!..one of the old school managers, who’d been there and done it, said said it how it was…may he R.I.P.
Have sent you a pm

Alan Jones, there’s a name from the past, if its the same Alan that worked for Bakers and Smith of Maddiston in the late '60’s early '70’s then I haven’t seen him in 40 odd years, there’s a few stories to tell there…R.I.P.
Before we fall, Buzzer.
Hi all, can anyone shed any light on this ■■?
