Is that Mr Evans on the motorbike and sidecar? I expect he was on his way to the docks to give Gerbil some cheese and pickle sandwiches and tell him he’s spinning round.
The sidecar would disconnect and come off at the slip road by Adams Morey if there was any danger of missing the ferry and Angie would finish the job. [emoji2957]

Hi Horry,

The truth is all the cars around me are members of Angie’s Mafia Famiglia escorting me, making sure I don’t don’t do a runner with the running money they have kindly given to me to launder for them,I was heading for a farm on Penn Common Bramshaw where “Mr Big” lived to carry out their wishes.

“Mr Big” see photo went into transport himself and has since left his two lads to take over and they run some fridge motors apparently, meanwhile he has turned to livestock to support his extravagant life style and runs a top of the range Leyland to transport his animal.

Angie taken in by my boyish good humour now runs a 3 wheeler herself, the photo shows her loading in Napoli for a place called Tracey Island in Fareham England.She does two trips a week in this to keep me in idle luxury.

Regards
Richard

I must say that Angie’s efforts have not gone unnoticed. I have started to ship unaccompanied trailers over to Le Havre now for her, safe in the knowledge that she will increase to 2.5 round trips per week. For this, I have rewarded her with a Caplis card and she now says she can ‘smell the sea’ as far down as Auxerre when on the final stint to Le Ferry Boat. I do though take note that her ‘Angles Morts’ stickers have been pinched, likely by a youth from Napoli looking for a souvenir….

Horry.

I have just heard from her on the way back from Reggio Di Calabria and she cannot believe your kind gesture, she wants to know if you would like a souvenir yourself and is going to throw this on the load for you as a gesture of thanks for your kindness. I’ve told her to “Gel On” as she is booked on the P & O Ferry out of Calais
