Mine was 8’s in the army, and I was quoting what sergeant Woods said to Craftsman Pig, he was from Oxford and 6’ 11"
and when in bed his feet hung out of bed.

hiya,
I agree Dave it would be a job getting it back onto the spare carrier
thank goodness I never had many wheels to change, always put the
tyre guage " my size 10 boot" to them before setting off funny the
pressures always read 90, calibrated boots eh’.
thanks harry, long retired.
Size 10 they are not boots,
more like boats.
[/quote]
You must be a small bloke Norm.I wear size 10’s,have done since I was a teenager.
Cheers Dave.
[/quote]
Just a little bit bigger than mine btw
[/quote]
Do you wear size 9’s Ang ?
[/quote]
I wish bit smaller than that ( have put my size on somewhere ) but when I have physio on my foot wont take long as not big enough
Puting the spare wheel onto the Foden was simple, It could be lifted straight up & on with a bar or the handle off the wheel brace, there was a V shaped bracket to put the bar into , Regards Larry.

Look Norm,Dave’s trying to change the subject so pack it in talking about, and prolonging, the chit chat about all the “dodgy birds” you’ve had the “misfortune” to come across in your mis-spent working life !! Oh! and I bet a few of them wore yashmacks if some of the places that you ran to are included in “come dancing” with Norm are true !! Anon.
Dennis I was just trying to answer comments about me,
and they was not birds or dodgy, they was ladies who enjoyed my company, and all are still friends after 30 or 40 years
and no yashmask I like to converse,
also like to see red ruby lips smiling at me.
I never went out with the intension of getting tank up and dipping my wick,
I went out to have a enjoyable evening, and you won’t get any kiss and tell tales from me, you can assume what you like, but my lips are sealed. Now I won’t apologise prefer to talk about the fairer ■■■ than a battered old lorry that has been restored,lorries was only a means of getting a living, not a twenty four hour subject, I never pined or worshipped them, I never cared if they was two stroke or whatever, or even if they had more gears. I wanted it to start, run ok, and stop ok, to get me to point B from point A

hiya,
Norm being tanked up and dipping ones wick don’t make good bedfellows,
you can only do one or the other, one you want to sleep the other you don’t,
I once asked a youngish lady what her biggest turn off was her reply, being
mauled by a man who had drunk too much the other a man with dirty hands
and fingernails so as a youngish “single” lad going on a date I always gave the
nailbrush some stick and drank lemonade, you’ve got to listen to good advice.
thanks harry, long retired.

Got rid of the motorbike when I was 18,otherwise I would have ended up in boot hill.Bought an A35 van,much better as a passion wagon.

Harry I think I mention this before, I was comming out of the “Talk of the North” in Carlisle and a chap from our firm came out with a women old enough to be his grandmother, with a face that looked like it had been ten rounds with Tyson, and he gave a drunken smile, and said I’m taking her home, I said the best of british luck.
Next morning in the truckstop I was having a meal, and he rolled in, and said Norm you should have seen what I woke up beside, I said I did when youtook her home in a taxi,
I had nightmares all night,
he said I sneaked out. poor chap had a nervous twitch a couple of years later, he died in his late 50’s. So Harry people do it all the time.

I don’t think drink and romance work Norm.Anything looks good when the drink is in,don’t look so good when you sober up and that works both ways.
