Blooming heck Harry, tis a LONG time since Rigger Boots were worn! :open_mouth: Banned everywhere in Construction these days lad, and I only ever wore them for one foundry job we ran to! She has only ever met tipper and tanker drivers from the days when she sold raffle tickets to them at our annual Dinner dances and they were all gentlemen, none ever told her to f*** off and some still ask after her these days, nearly thirty years on. Dave and ROF, the house has had Upvc windows for 20 years,(just renewed the front ones again) the garage doesn’t alas! :slight_smile: We aint that posh! :unamused: Oh and ROF, we spend some time in Cheshire at Astle Park, Smallwood and the Cheshire Show, also have a pal in Macc so we could find you if needed, sleep with one eye open! :wink:
Dennis’s Training Levy doesn’t seem likely to cough up much somehow, I don’t think that he rates tipper men even though he is only a ‘modified one’ himself. People soon forget their roots when they become a Multi National, second only to his pal Steady Eddie, so I honestly cannot expect the postie to be slipping a nice cheque through our letter box anytime soon, more’s the pity. :cry:

Anyway she may be home in a day or so and, as she always looks over my shoulder at what I am typing, there may be more comments coming your way! :slight_smile: Speaking of Rigger boots Dave, I saw an advert for drawstring Riggers the other day, I wonder if they will now allow them to be worn again in the Construction Trade, Regards Larry.

Pete.

You had better get to the chemist Pete, and see if they have anything for chilblains, it might work on thick ears :exclamation: Which you might have, if she reads this thread. :laughing:
Cheers Dave.

steady on there brian , offering to buy strong drink for a lady , some of them get quite aggressive when they have had a few ( mine does anyway ) . i’m puzzled though by your offer , a yorkshireman BUYING beer , i thought you all went for a pee when it was your round . my granddaughter has lived in sheffield for 5 years now and you couldn’t open her ■■■■■ with a jackhammer . cheers , dave

I know, it was a moment of weakness, I’m sorry, but Pete’s wife seems as though she’s been struggling a bit I thought I’d show her just how generous us Yorkshiremen are. And after all these years handling the drinking habits of my owd lass, believe me, I’m well used to it. Mine think a bottle of gin is like milk, she thinks it will go"off"" if not consumed quickly. She did quite well yesterday, 3 pints of Pheonix Brewery “Wobbly Bob” 6.0%, then she went to the match to watch “her” team, I won’t go with her, she gets with her crazy sisters at a rugby match and nobody is safe. :unamused: … :wink:

2304

thank god my other half gave up the drink years ago , she had a pot leg , it went down without trace . one good thing though , it seemed to awaken the carnal desires a bit sharpish so i had to bite the bullet and take her out regular . i don’t bother now as said desires seem to have quietly passed away .

They are all paid up members of The Celibacy Society now…thank god :wink: :laughing: Never ending demands these wimmin in their younger days, us lads would come home after a hard day with a Gardner (or suchlike) and then their lustful demands would start. :stuck_out_tongue: :laughing:

hiya,
Lived in my drum since about 1982 round about the time her lustful demands were
starting to dwindle, phew, they won’t return will they?? if so I’m going to resurrect
the old class one and do a bit of tramping, anybody looking for a 77 year old well
knackered driver with his own digs book and R & S experience, day cab preferred.
thanks harry, long retired.

They are strange and wondrous creatures Harry, not to be under estimated, as my old Grandad said they can be stroked like a dog, but can bite or be friendly. :wink:

Got the Good Lady home today so I am going to be busy during the day now, rest period is officially over! :cry: The Ambulance crew who brought her home must have been on bonus, they literally left her at the door and I had to struggle to get her in to the living room on my own. The District Nurse we were promised has been cancelled it appears so it is down to little old me to get things sorted.

Pete.

2317

We’ve got every confidence in your load-shifting abilities, Pete. You’ve got years of valuable experience behind you.

A trolley jack and engine hoist may make your life easier.

Great to hear she’s home, even if you’ll have to do things the “proper” way now. Keep us posted.

2318

I think I have more chance of winning millions on euro lottery, :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: than my wife getting frisky, after two sons in two years, she slowed almost to a stop, :unamused: :unamused: :unamused: then eight years we had our daughter, which came from the result of a dinner & dance, she put up the shutters. :frowning: :frowning: :frowning: now I think ■■■ is between 5 and 7. :wink: :wink: :wink: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

And i’ll tell you this, you WILL sort it, as we all would for our ladies. Now you have a mission Pete, to get her back into harness so you are able to call…“I’ll have another beer my love and be quick about it”. :laughing:

we have to be very careful how we issue the staff orders brian , a little polite persuasion could be the difference between drinking it and wearing it .
