No they live in there own little world

I haven’t broken many in nearly 60 years Harry. Did lose mine when I was thrown out of the vehicle in my accident. The local optician made another pair up on prescription. The copper that attended the accident said to my Dad about a month later,we have a pair of glasses at the station , my old man told him he needed them more than I did.
Cheers Dave.

hiya,
Still tinted Fred to hide the bloodshot ale infected headlamps come to think of it
I don’t think I ever left Bowkers yard or any overnight parking up-place when I
was totally sober, What was the name of the pub down the A5 where we used to
have a liquid breakfast the one where Leachy rolled the Mercedes when leaving
the pub car park after we’d had our usual “several pints breakfast”, keep well mate.
thanks harry, long retired.
Your recollections of your several pints for breakfast Harry, reminded me of when I was lodging in West Wales in 1970. We were staying at a pub at Rhandirmwyn in the Towy valley not far from Llandovery.
We were constructing forestry roads for the Economical Forestry Group,and there was two of us driving tippers hauling from a tracked excavator to a tracked machine making and leveling the road.
At the same time Wimpey Construction were building the Llyn Brianne reservoir just up the valley.
Needless to say, all the pubs in the area were doing a roaring trade with all the blokes working on the Dam.
We used to be sat in the kitchen of the pub eating a cooked breakfast with the bar half full of blokes out of several Landrovers in donkey jackets drinking pints of Guinness at 7am in the morning.
Thee same blokes plus a lot more were back in there every evening. The pubs must of made a fortune.
Cheers Dave.
