You tell she who must be obeyed, you never lie, you only bend the truth a little, my irish beauty, tells me, I would not know the truth, if it came and kicked me up the arse■■?, Lads do you think she is over re-acting, or she thinks honest Norman may be telling little white lies, I am very complexed! .
hiya,
Norm, you’re the British version of George Washington, tell your “colleen” i’ll vouch for you.
thanks harry long retired.
Harry thanks mate, it is nice to get support from somewhere. 
hiya,
Don’t mention it Norm can’t let the so called fairer ■■■ get the better of a fellow red and ruster.
thanks harry long retired.
Harry by the way, how did you do at the doctors the other week, am I to be 
or 
hiya,

Hi Harry,I hope all goes ok for you mate.
I wonder if Norman drove one of these for Bartons,seeing as this is a Notts bus firm thread.
Well,maybe not,but perhaps one of these.
And this will bring back memories.The tacho spoils it though.
Maybe Bartons buses didn’t get as far as Northampton but their wagons got over the water - and not just the Trent
hiya,
Chris don’t you mean Norm in your last post, i have driven buses but only brand new ones factory to buyer for a pal of mine many moons ago.
thanks harry long retired.

Sorry Harry,yes I did mean Norman,I’ll edit the post 
.
Chris, the chap I started this thread about, drove a little more modern lorry, “■■■■ of Bartons” , even if he was a bit ancient, if he is still alive, he would be in the 80/90s, he must have been 10/20 years older than me. When on the buses, we had semi and full automatics, only had the crash for training, but chris you do come up with some cracking photo’s.
hiya,
You want nowt with auto and semi auto gearboxes Norm you don’t go home tired so you get no kip, the things drive themselves “ladies gearboxes”.
thanks harry long retired.
Harry,
I think Norman knows a lot about “Ladies Gearbox’s” 
Hope your results are ok.
Keep taking the tablets !
ps I have telephoned the Bournemouth tourist board to tell them he’s coming this weekend
Regards Richard
Richard, who has been talking to you, , I must admitt, I was a first class REME mechanic in that area, , and was told I could do their serviceing anytime I wished, , but I prefered the sleek classey sport car, but some was out of my price range.
hiya,
MaggieD seems i’m going to last a bit longer provided i keep taking the tablets, actually don’t feel too bad at the moment thanks for asking but don’t think I’ll be joining Norm at Bournemouth in his stand-up comedy act, in my case it would be more propped-up, if you go to the show don’t get too near the stage cos’ if he does his egg dancing act the YOLK might be on you.
thanks harry long retired.
Harry, don’t tell everyone about my eggs, only you know, , but is a cracking idea to take it to the seaside, but I might make a mess, and get all scambled, the audience might not like my yokes, but might like my shells. .
hiya,
Expect you’ll be paying MaggieD his commission for the work he’s getting you in showbiz Norm, and as for me telling everybody about your egg balanceing act i’m expecting a few bob for all the publicity i’m drumming up for you, this thread is becoming eggstraordinary and not suitable for the hard boiled characters who are daft enough to read this and their brains must be scrambled or pickled.
thanks harry long retired.
Well done Harry, you surpassed yourself, and if you pardon the pun, since we have been in tandem,you have become quite a egghead, in more ways than one, brains, ands your good looks, my Durham Kojac.
hiya,
More Humpty Dumpty in my case, methinks.
thanks harry long retired.
I slow you down sometimes Harry, but you always manage to come back with a comment, my 2nd cousin in gold coast in aussie, answered me, but is changing offices, will contact me when settled in, so now I will be sending e-mails to Poland, America, and Australia
hiya,
Only got two speeds Norm dead slow and stop.
thanks harry long retired.
