nope not pondarosa wed have 10 ton of alley in middle and a jcb 4 on the back .
Evening all,âŚStan RossâŚnow he had an ability to get me as âtight as a drumâ, and send me on my happy way back from Cardiff with some worn out piece of Welsh junk, as a part exchange against some âwonderfulâ Black Country Atkinson, (AEC, Leyland, or whatever), and without the âalcoholic influenceâ that I had imbibedâŚwell I would never have realised that it was worn out before I left Cardiff city limits!!
Now combine Stan Ross`s dulcet tones with those of Lew Lewis, (the Coil Carrier King of South Wales), and a "simple Black Country lad was lost!! Grief,⌠the rubbish that I took back up the road to England⌠Whatever did I do with itâ â ?
I cannot remember,
Maybe some Bollinger will help me to remember!!!Cheerio for now.
