Cheers Dave.

Lets hope they get plenty of work with decent rates.Did hear about some of their own from a good source,but it would be unusual to have their own,when there are plenty of contractors with tippers in the region.
Cheers Dave.
My next door neighbour Geoff,trying to get out of his loading shovel without being on camera,but at 6’3" he failed.

I think you are right again Merfyn,he did sell it to someone up North Wales,also the numberplate was a personal one,so he would retain that…
Cheers Dave.
Another pic of A E Gough’s Foden,can’t recall them having another Foden before or after this one.
Looks like a launcher from next door on the back of M A’s Scania.

Hi John,
Haven’t seen much of the Milnthorpe Dennis over the last couple of days.He seems to have disappeared from the forums.I would say he’s up in Falkirk as the rumour has it,trying to find anyone from Smith of Maddiston,who can get him off the hook .
Cheers Dave.
The holes to deep now Dave, I think poor old Dennis is down there for good 
… but something at the back of my mind tells me, Dennis Smith will rise again. I hope so we will be lost without him.
cheers
John.
