Sorry lads
Regards Pat
You’ve just improved Mappo’s looks by 100% 
Nice hair do !! 
Hi Pat D
Whet is Pat S doing with all those OLD men 
Pat,
Great pics,
In the first one has Tony got some sort of incontinent pad on ? or is it a mark on the photo 
I know he used to work on the Continent !
I guess Paul has been working at Pitters and nicked a jacket!
Jim looks very smart and I spoke to Guy Ritchie and he’s going to give him a part in his new movie about East End villans !
Good old Pat S he has looked the same for the last 30 odd years, I don’t know what his secret is !
Regards Richard

Hi Jim,
You are right regarding Pat, I was out the back of Bordon last week,a place called Oakhanger,digging myself out of the snow, round the corner was a nice old boy charging the battery on his 143,(he hadn’t been out since before Christmas) got talking to him about the truck an L.reg with a ■■■■■■■ plate, blow me down he had one of Pat’s low loaders on ! and said Pat’s got first refusal when he sells the 143 !!
Good to hear you are ok Jim I’ll look out for you in Totton.
Regards
Richard

Hi Pat,

Richard

Hi MaggieD, ive got on the new PJD uniform all pats drivers go to work like that.
Was really good to see the lads at Pats today after 26/27 years, it was like 1981 again, Im looking forward to the round up in Aug if it comes off to see everyone again as i missed it last year
Best Regards Jimski.
Hi jimski and ainacs. Well, what a blast from the past !! Even though I’m of a slightly younger generation I remember the ‘good old days’ down in the mud at Nursling and then Baddesley !! Same S*** different yard eh Pat !! Gone are the days of Robert Newman Transport, followed by Colin Harris (RIP) and Bob Nunn- what happened to Bob ■■) Eurohaul, Jamesons, Kingswood, R&G etc etc.
Hi Madmax Soton do i know you ■■? you seem to know me from the Duffy days !!!
Hi Pat i used to do wheel stands like that…in your scannie 141 only kidding
Who knows us ■■?R Jimski
Jimski:
Hi Madmax Soton do i know you ■■? you seem to know me from the Duffy days !!!
Hi jimski. You sure do mate. Looking good in the whistle buddy !! Lawyer or Villain can’t quite tell ! Trying to think of the other Jim’s name
who was an Owner /Driver (Rainbow Transport) had the smart Daf 3300 also worked for STS with the Green/White maggot ■■
Keep guessing geezer !!! Laters.
Yoh Jimski and backwards Scania man. You can tell you’re of a more senior age by the time it’s taking you to work out who this is.
Another clue, Myfirst job was for EGT (Emery+Glasspool Transport -Fred + Colin) in a Bedford TK flatbed, roping and sheeting, Dark days !!
Shame about Colin ending up in a wheelchair many years ago while driving for Esso. Still remember those Henri Wintermans !
Any closer ■■? Laters
I remember Colin Glasspool he still lives at Baddesley near the Baddesley Arms and he used to live by the Hardware Store, but as for who you are ■■?
Let’s have another clue for us simpletons
The other Jim was Jim Street, see memory not that bad

Ok lets see if you get any warmer. I regret the day I never bought a scanny off you and ended up with a Renault R310 then an R340 !!
But then you were too dear for the piece of scrap you tried to pass on to me !!
Pat…I,m never gonna grace you with my presence again. You can stick yer tea up your *******
Fergie and Tribsa…Your comments are no more than i would have expected.
MaggieD…Very very funny Richard, even though it hurts. 
Jim…Was good to see you mate after so long. Well done for posting those pics of you know who. 
ft…Cant make up my mind from those two pics which is the better hair do.
Mad Max…Hi there, dunno if i know you but the owner driver you referred to is Jim Street. He,s now semi-retired but still doing
the occasional trip and a bit of agency work.
Regards to you all, kind or otherwise…Tony
Whoops,you beat me to it Pat re Jim.
