Norman Ingram:
Harry you are safe, it won’t be till 2050 they raise the pension age to seventy five, and you are way pass that already, and I am close behind.Only worried is will this generation last as long as us, I do not think so, to look at the condition of them, I think they will not last as long as the people in victorian times! Then the country will be in trouble, they may come after the OAP’s to fill the gap like they did in the war, they may need us to increase the population and make sturdy stock.
Norm don’t lull Harry into a false sense of security.You obviously live in a wealthy part of the country which has been unaffected by the recession.Money is very short in the rest of the country,so there will be a call up of retired lorry drivers to steer the country out of trouble.Can you organise some good drivers.

Dave you should know I can’t lull Harry into anything, he is unmoveable except or unless you bribe him with single malt.

I don’t possess any whisky of any discription Norm.Do you think a drop of heating oil might do the trick.
Cheers Dave.

You are very right about that Harry.Lots of heating oil in this area has been purloined to be used in diesel engined motors.
I am am hanging on as long as I can,before I fill my tank up.Knowing my luck,it will shoot up in price.
Cheers Dave.
Dave, a chap who had his heating oil purlioned at least twenty times, went to the cost of burying his tank and pipes, also so they couldn’t get at his intake pipe, he got a old defunct WD tank,and left a sign " Now steal the bar steward " few months later the tank vanished.
i’m glad we don’t live in the wilds of the border country or darkest northampton . up in the civilised areas of the high peak we have piped gas for our heating . they havn’t figured out a way to steal that yet . perhaps you should convert to an lpg tank dave , cheers, smug in buxton

They possibly have no elektrikery either when the Hamster gets tired Dave? Just glad that I dont live in those ‘Third World’ areas, though I guess that having no services they wont pay council tax like us so they will have lots of cash to spare and nowt to spend it on.

careful john , they are quite well to do down in those parts , "i’m cold jeeves chuck another peasant on the fire " and that sort of thing
hiya,
S’cuse me lads I’m off up the fell with my shovel and barrow
time to cut some peat, looks like it’s going to be a very harsh
winter and gas is what my missus does over the garden fence
with her next door, if you could use that stuff for keeping warm
you’d be quids in. And if she reads this I’m dead.
thanks harry, long retired.

When I decided to have this bungalow built in the early 1970’s Dave.The local bank manager who I was having a discussion with regarding the mortgage,asked me what sort of heating was I thinking of having.I replied,oil fired Rayburn with two burners capable of running six radiators.He said have gas,much cheaper.I said,no mains gas here,he replied have a tank in your garden.
You weren’t a bank manager forty years ago by any chance ?
Still got the Rayburn which is only run on one burner these days.Also got a condensing boiler which drives a load of radiators at a much lower cost than the Rayburn.Had we have gone for gas,it would have probably been a better system,certainly much cleaner and less servicing.
Cheers Dave.
We have Gas in Northampton, still have gasometers but not coal gas in them, if we did, it would be a lot cheaper to run our central heating, we do have some villages in Northamptonshire with no gas mains to them, could be a few of Yorkshire people have move here or they could be from Derbyshire as well, but they don;t want to pay to have gas to there houses

The villages your way Norm would have the population of one of our market towns this way.There is no way that mains gas will reach this village.We don’t lie on the track of any proposed pipe lines etc.The only thing that may come this way are pylons from the proposed wind farms planned further into Wales.The route from them to the power station near Kington passes through this valley according to plans that I have seen.
Cheers Dave.

Dave just had a great idea, you could keep a load of pigs, chickens, and keep the manurer and used the gas to run your car & central heating!

Been there done that Norm.When I was a kid my parents kept chickens and a pig.Plenty of manure around here,as we live in an agricultural area.

hiya,
There’s a few pages on here about Gardner engines and a guy on there
is spouting a load of manure, so if you’re looking for the raw materials
to start your own gas producing plant just take a look-see, Dave you
know it makes sense.
thanks harry, long retired.
Well lads I had to go for a blood test yesterday, and it was a 14 hours starvation one, and we were kept waiting over a hour, and with diabetes you should eat regular. I told the assistent it was difficult from my arms, and should use my back of the hand or the wrist, but she had to prove she was good after three attempts she called a nother women and she took it from my hand, I got up and walked to my wife and sat down beside her and got a bannana and started to eat it! Then the next thing I remember was a nurse asking if I was alright,I then ate a KitKat and she gave me a nice cup of tea, when I felt better we went straight for a breakfast. later I took my wife to Bonmarche and spent £40 pounds on four long sleeves tops.When we came out, I told my wife to sit on the bench, I was going in to Ladbrokes to collect a few pounds from Sundays bet, I took a look at the runners and all I could see was a horse in Yarmouth 4.20, I thought it was so me, I went and asked what the price was, 10/1 I was told, so I felt I had to back it! So I placed £10 ew at 10/1 and told the wife, we got some fruit and caught the bus home, as I still was not quite myself. after a cup of tea and a rest, it came time for the race, I put the channel on to Racing UK and they had bet the horse down to 6/1, I was nearly tempted to ring up and have another £20ew, but I just couldn’t be bothered, I watched the race, and mine was three from the rear, but moved up with two furlongs to go mine went after franny norton horse who lead by two lengths, but my horse came sailing by and was nearly two lengths in front at the post. I seem to get better after that! Oh you are wondering what the name of the winner! Go on you must have guessed Yes of course, it was " HANDSOME MAN"
