Right o’ “H”,take your pick of one of these girls out of the “grave yard”,I think they all have a bit Test left on them and I’ll get a Guiness label to stick in the window,but you can only run at night 
One of the Atky’s has a ■■■■■■■ 180 engine and it can pick it’s feet up a bit 
Cheers Dennis PS well when you’ve been off the road a while you have to start back in some where “on the ladder”,don’t worry a month or two on one of these girls and you’ll soon get a chance on a Scania 81 
Ring when your empty in The smoke,I’ve got you a load of handball off Covent Garden for Newcastle Market.

driving the Atki on the left the “Scots maiden” the one with the ■■■■■■■ inboard, I do get one
of the loaded trailers on my first day don’t I ■■ got to break me in very gently, Oh’ and can I get

You’ve got the start “H”,there’s a fiver in an envelope tucked under the blanket on the bonnet now don’t go and “blow it” on beer down Aldgate,it’s got to last you all week 
Forget about the 81 I’ve sent it down to the Northampton area as we’ve started a young lad called Norman ■■? I told him to meet you at the ACE cafe to-morrow and that you’ll keep him “in hand” as he’s just a lad and has never been down the “smoke”.Cheers Dennis.PS,there’s a new Big J with 8LXB out the paint shop this week,your name is on it

hiya,
Promise of the Big “J” has swung it Dennis but keep it under wraps and only a 180
badge on the front or the lads at SOM will be ordering them by the boat load Eh’
and they’ll be posting pictures of their arse ends all over a certain page on TNUK,
Oh’ and the 81 for Nosser don’t blame me if the next time you hear from him he’ll
be en-route to the Middle East or somewhere like that, the UK isn’t big enough for
these International drivers, and methinks you better make his float a tenner.
thanks harry, long retired.
Old Dennis can keep his good idea’s, 
and we will politely say no way jose,at our age we have no yearning or desire to climb in the cabs. and as for your fiver 
I have to give my granddaughter more than that!

Dennis I reckon “Old Nosser” is past his sell by date, but it must be nice to be
wealthy enough to turn down your offer of gainful employment, by the way I
need another sub the £5 you left under the bonnet cover wasn’t there I reckon
someone has had it away, Now wasn’t Norm handing his grandbairns money as if
it was going out of fashion, I did manage to score half a bed out of the Brown
Bear, never did “cab it” as a young fellah aint’ starting now.
thanks harry, long retired.
I tell you I am on the to the scrapyard I keep checking my blood sugar, yesterday 5.9 today 6.3 still I have got to see the doctor on Monday for renewal of my tables, he will check my blood pressure, it is no serious, but I just not at my best. Harry it is no good dreaming, you are not fit enough to drive a nail in. Let alone drive those old boneshakers.

OK “H” this time I’ve left you £5 worth of Silvertown Motel vouchers as I have a sneaking suspicion that if I left you another £5 note in the same place some “light fingered scroat” would be in the cab before you and have it away in his “sky rocket” or Boiler suit Cheers Dennis.

I didn’t have a lot of say where we stayed when I was mate on the Octopus “H” but we did stay at S/town motel a few times if we’d been tipping on the Docks,or we sometimes loaded gear off a ship for the Vickers yard in Barrow,there was a consolation though,some great strippers on the boozer opposite on an evening,maybe you can answer my query “H”,why did they always dance in a cage? 
Cheers Dennis.
Did you see the BBC news to-night “H”,there was a piece about wealthy pensioners living in the Northampton area getting a bit more interest off the Tory Chancellor for their large savings accounts,so guess who “Nosser” will be voting for next time ! Cheers Dennis.

Er um why were the strippers locked in a cage ■■, rough old dogs springs to mind

Bewick will need to lock himself in a cage, when Norm reads his post about Northampton pensioners savings Harry.
Cheers Dave.
it won’t make a lot of difference to the likes of harry and me , they give us a couple of quid rise in the pension and some clever bugger in the town hall will be thinking of ways to get ir back off us . poor old harry ond grumpy old man should be scandalised , it said in the paper that a bottle of single malt is about 37 pounds and 30 pounds of that is duty (tax ). it’s ALMOST enough to stop them drinking it .
hiya,
Well looking with interest at today’s budget it will be good for pensioners who have
funds to mess about with investments so that rules me out, I received a letter a few
weeks ago notifying me of an impending rise in my state pension, not a lot but I was
going to be better off by a few quid a month great, since then a couple more letters
have arrived with “small” increases to my direct debit for the council tax, supposed
to have been frozen another letter from the water people yet again a “small” amount
added to the direct debit instalments, so after doing a rough calculation I will finish
up with less money than before the “rise”, in with one hand, out with the other.
thanks harry, long retired.
it happens every year harry , it’s a bit like being drunk , one step forwards two steps back . i think being drunk is better though . why do i keep getting begging letters from help the aged though ?

Aye Rigsby I get these people knocking on my door all the bloody time, And when I tell them that my wife & I are retired & live on our state pensions, The first thing these gits say is well you live in a very nice house & in a nice area, And when they see my XF Jag in the drive they look at me as if Im telling them porkies, One fellow said but surley you can spare a couple of quid a month, So I told him If I gave two quid a month to all & sundrie that comes calling I would have ■■■■ all to live on, Anyway Ive worked as my wife has also to get what we have to-day and we don’t get any hand outs for the aged, which we are aged people, So these canversers that call on us must be bloody blind or stupid when they see me at my front door, Im old and white headed & going bald, So how in the hell do they expect the likesof us to contribute to the aged Eh, Regards Larry.

Well Harry I stayed there one night when it first opened It was canny,But I went back three months after & It was ■■■■■■ & I never went back, Its a pity because it could have been good as It was ahead of its time in those days, Shaver plugs etc, But it didn’t last very long, I wonder what is there now, Happy Dappy Days , Regards Larry.
