hiya,
That’ll do for me R,O,F, not governed to SMP (silly miles per hour) I’m hoping
to go out tonight. the blue will do for me by the way, I have worked for a few
blue uns’ in my time without coming to any harm, by the way that’s about as
high as I could climb nowadays without having to resort to oxygen.
thanks harry, long retired.

hiya,
Dave I’ll bet the old girl is low on home comforts but no doubt an enterprising
young driver has no doubt utilised the bench seat as a bunk for overnighting
on the odd occasion, and that top opening windscreen would have me cross-
eyed before the trip was completed, but you can’t have everything.
thanks harry, long retired.

I expect when that lorry was new the driver thought he was the bee’s knee’s Harry.
Cheers Dave.

Larry, yes will be on parade on Saturday, have had a few days away in Sunny
Blackpool with the “Good Lady” we try to go over that way at least once in a
while, well you’ve got to keep your hand in haven’t you ? but on this occasion I
did let the coach driver take the strain and I put my feet up, I could soon get
used to having a chauffeur.
thanks harry, long retired.
Nowt wrong with that Harry I know the feeling, Regards Larry.

Here’s the bus for you drivers to have a lift in.
Cheers Dave.
hiya,
Yes Larry, the bus pass, I find I’m using mine more and more, no juice to buy
no parking to find and pay for no points on your licence or motoring fines for
you to find, I’d get shot of the car if my wife agreed but being that we both
drive and she likes to get away occasionally in the old caravan I suppose I will
need to keep it until she OK’s it and lets me hang the old licence out to dry, at
least my insurance as dropped a bit now that my wife doesn’t need the car for
work the cover was expensive when she was using the car for her job it was
classed as business use and was costing a fortune the pittance they paid her for
running costs was nowhere near what she spent on fuel and they don’t consider
servicing road fund licence and insurance in their calculations, I once had a go
at working out what the cost of running the car was and it looked to me that
what they paid her per month didn’t cover ten of her working days, so she was
working several days a month for nothing, but we’ve all done that haven’t we ?.
thanks harry, long retired.

Aye, I still come out in a cold sweat when I remember the bit of part timing I did (National Travel, and Wallace Arnold).
At WA’s I used to catch for a Sunday job bring the tourists who’d been to Benidorm etc. back from Man. airport. It was a poxy job but when you’ve a young new family and a mortgage, every little helped. After a bit of tax it was slave labour. Terrible, (although the kids used to like counting the tips.

It would be a bit easier than ■■■■■■■ bales with a pitchfork around the farms for 10 bob an hour Brian.
I used to do that in the evenings and at weekends for cash in the 1960’s and early 70’s. Good money at the time.

hiya,
■■■■■■■ bales with a pitchfork I’ve done,I’ve driven buses but brand new ones with
only access to the drivers compartment available, never had a PSV but thinking back
I think I would have given the driving the heave-ho if I could have got a start as the
local gigolo, well not necessarily local could have travelled a bit if expenses was paid.
thanks harry, long retired.

I don’t know how you would find the time or the energy to be a gigolo Harry, especially as you are already a babe magnet in the north east.
