hiya,
Norm i would’nt swap my old lady for a gold clock, but if somebody offered two she’d have to go.
thanks harry long retired.

Harry, I do not know if I told you, but one of my mates who died, his wife left him after 28 years, because he was away driving, then when he was home at weekend, he was in the pub, so one of his mates who was not a driver, was the person she moved in with, he was hoping she would come back, but I said that he should get on living his life, for after that long she would not come back, the poor sod died 20 years ago aged 56, then someone said to me what would I do if my wife ran away with my best friend? , I replied I have never had that good a friend, and my wife hit me.

hiya,
Norm, my wifes ex husband never came looking for my now wife, he’d have had the game on he’s brown bread, and if my good lady reads this i’ll joining him,
thaks harry long retired.

Hi boys
Mr Norm, I would never be disrespectfull towards my elders.I will be one of them before long :frowning: The thought of Mr Harrys knotty rope is making me shiver with fear. Before I got married 18 years ago I was thinking about my old age so decided to wed a younger model. The mississ is 13 years younger than me so hopefully she will look after me in years to come. How’s that for forward planing. :smiley: :smiley:

Regards Keith.

hiya,
Keith, my missus is a bit younger than me but only by 7 years and at 66 i’ve tried to trade her in for two 33 year olds but have had no takers as yet but one lives in hope, although the one i’ve got runs a tidy ship and her grubs a lot better than truckstop fodder, so i’ll just stick with what i’ve got might even start to give her some housekeeping money.
thanks harry long retired.

Hi Harry I paid 7/6d down in 1966 and payments for life (but she is worth it) :smiley:

I forgive you Keith, but shame on you for marrying a young, young, school girl, hope she kept her uniform ha ha ha, and you Harry, two 33 year olds, would kill you. but what a way to go, doing a double Grand National, but I bet that you fall after the first (jump), I mean fence!, my wife is four and half years younger, she thinks ■■■ comes between five and seven?

So you didn’t get up that way then Dave?
You weren’t missing much in the winter,parts of the Isle of Man are like Bethesda,complete with slate. :laughing:

Hi Chris,
Missed your reply on this thread the other day. Didn’t go up North Wales with a lorry,went all over South Wales and Midlands down to Swindon and back to Bristol area. Been up North Wales many times with cars and vans looking at lorries for sale, with various hauliers that I have been mates with or CPC holder for,its a hard unforgiving part of the UK for lorries.
Cheers Dave.

Hi Dave,was R.H.Goulding from round your way,Newent maybe.Dark green wagons,always looked well,or am I getting mixed up with another haulier from Ledbury in the same green colour? I remember one sunday afternoon chasing back from Baglan Bay for a dodgy at the Oakamoor on the A38 and the M50 was shut after a bridge bash further towards Tewkesbury where I think the driver was killed.I was diverted through Ledbury,onto the A449 and onto the M5 at Worcester and it was a long trek in a Mandator.I was over my time when I got parked up at the Oakamoor but being a jammy sod got a lift straightaway with one of Harris and Miners (or was it Brian Harris)from Widecombe straight to Tinsley,Sheffield.Not bad for a late sunday afternoon in november. :laughing:

Hi boys
Norm I thought Tea came between 5 and 7. I see most of you lads married younger girls but do you understand them ? As i’m getting older I think my hearing is getting poorer for example a few weeks ago the missis said she would like a rabbit with long ears and she said they sold them in a summary type shop in town run by some woman called Ann.She said it could go in a hutch, I’ve not seen it yet but it must be making her happy as she’s walking around with a constant smile on her face.But as I say my hearing is not as it was as I have started to experiance a small humming noise sometimes. I’m a little disapointed I spent a good two hours picking leaves for this rabbit and left them in a bag on the door step but the missis hasen’t given it any there still there.You can’t help some peaple can you… :smiley:

Regards Keith.

hiya,
Keith what a nice story, love animal tales more than wagon tales,and what a thoughtful man collecting food for said animal, they are a little too far off the ground to eat grass after all, just hope your good lady reads your posts to let her see how much you care, good vibrations indeed well done.
thanks harry long retired.

Hi Chris,
You are quite right R H Goulding was from Newent,just under the Railway bridge,by the fire station. They packed up a few years ago,someone else has got the yard now,think its plant hire,although there are a couple of eight wheeler tippers as well.
Cheers Dave.

Keith, you are a smoothy, talking about rabbits, there was this buck rabbit name " Sam", and he was getting a bit old in the tooth, like Harry, well he used to service about 20/30 does, and was feeling the strain, so he got a youg buck rabbit to help him out. Now said Sam, you must have manners and be polite, and say thank you when you have finished, yeah, yeah, the young buck replied, and was eager to get started. Sam started one end of the queue, the buck the other, thank you maam, thank you maam, thank you maam, thank you maam, sorry Sam!

hiya,
Norm once got a part in a blue stage show , none speakig role just had to come on stage and make love to twenty nubile young ladies one after the other,on the opening night the stage manager was worried that i would’nt be able to do it, i told him no problem, got to girl fifteen and rolled off knackered, down the curtain comes and the stage manager came on telling me i was sacked, i tried to explain i could’nt understand how i’d failed and that it was no problem at the afternoon rehearsals when i’d done the job easily.
thanks harry long retired.

Hi boys
The humming noise has stopped now, just got a ringing sound in my ear. Maybe something to do with the handbag broadside to the head… :smiley: :smiley:

Regards Keith.
PS she loves me really.

hiya,
Keith, i’m struggling to get into my old lady’s good books, took her, at her request, to somwhere very expensive we visited a petrol filling station.
thanks harry long retired.

Hi boys
Harry be carefull you could end up with picture and no sound. If that happens usally a good bang on top will sort it out… :smiley:

Regards Keith.

Keith, here is a thing we would do on CB, ask the driver if he had any ■■■■ pictures of his wife, if he said he did not have any, we use to wind him up, by asking him if he wanted to buy any?

hiya,
Never had a CB never used one even if the motor i was driving had a radio fitted i rarely turned it on, I did use to talk to myself though just thought i was the most intelligent person i knew and always got sensible answers.
thanks harry long retired.

Hi Norman Harry & co,
Had CB for over thirty years still got them now,its a bit like being on here,the same banter,you get all sorts on them,but nowadays its mainly lorry drivers,as all the rest are on mobile phones or the internet,don’t know much about that. :laughing:
Cheers Dave.
