Dunno about that Jim, I do have to work for a living yer know.
For those of you that haven,t guessed what me and Jim are talking about,
I,ve treated myself to an i pad.
Bit confusing for me at first ( being a bit of a dinosaur where technology,s concerned )
But I have to admit it,s a handy bit of kit.

Mappo good afternoon. A man of your experience and class should have a T ‘I’ R Pad
Maybe see you in a couple of weeks. Make sure you get weighed out for the parking tickets in your time sheet on the Friday before so there is a few mm’s on the wallet.
Hi Horry, couldn’t,t get a TIR pad so had to make do.
Look forward to seeing you, Buzzer and everyone else at the Wheatsheaf.
shame Liz can’t make it but I,m glad Fergie won’t be there.( only joking Dave )
As for turning up with a loaded wallet Horry, I,m only a poor lorry driver, I reckon I should
Be able to raise enough to buy half a pint and two straws for me and Charlie.

Does anyone remember Hampshire Trailer Services based at Peewitt Hill, Bursledon? I used to work there after school and weekends washing the lorries that came back from the continent and helping out with the trailers. They had a Volvo Bubble lorry, a couple of Scania 142s and some F88s and a couple of 89s left hookers.
Thanks for the tip off Charlie mate, that,s a weight off my mind.
trunker08…yeh it probably will be pick on Mappo time, it normally is as you,ve noticed.
Good job I,ve got broad shoulders aye.
and yes Jimski,s the model maker, I,m sure he,ll
Be in touch.
Nigel pacey…that sounds like it could have been Buzzers ( Davies ) fleet back in the day.
Only thing is we used to wash our own lorries. No pressure washers then, bucket and sponge job
And they used be gleaming.

Hi Tone containers work

Hi Trunker08 yes I do build the models, and yes I was looking for a particular model a few months back, I was looking for a MAN Commander but I got one from a friend from Milton Keynes, but I’m always on the lookout as they are getting very scares these days, some of the kit I buy from eBay and are 20-25 years old but I feel some kits are drying up, if you’ve got any you wanna get rid of please PM me.
Regards Jimski
