One of Mercer’s on Leominster bypass.

Hi Boys
Dave mist you again, like ships passing in the night :smiley: :smiley: I hope the RJAH visit went well. I haven’t been down the 49 for a while and noticed there are only two of those turn tables left opposite the garage in Craven Arms, and even they have had ■■■■■■■■■ put in the centre instead of the table. Only time before they are removed alltogether.Perhaps the car drivers would sooner drive in there drives then reverse out onto the main road. Backing in would be to easy. :frowning: :frowning: I called at the burger van just north of Ashton Berrington,on the way back :angry: :angry: sausage onion and black sandwich cup of tea, £4.20.you only get caught once. would have been better off having a breki at The Lazy Trout. I’ll Keep looking out for you two but as I said yesterday the polish is running out.

Regards Keith.

Hi Keith,
No probs at Gobowen,cut back through Ellesmere through to Prees for a breakfast,as you probably know Vosa were there as usual,only lorries on the main park were the one’s they had pulled.When we came out of the midway they were eating their grub,quite a few had pulled into the Raven park,nothing in the other,they must be playing havoc with both those cafes,if it wasn’t for the moterbikes and holiday people Phil would have no trade. We had two breakfasts and two tea’s,cost £8.72,very good value,as much as either of us could eat. after the discount. Never stopped at any of the snack vans between Leominster and Craven Arms. Haven’t been in the Lazy Trout for a few months,last time I was in there it was ok.
We got a few pics at Malcom Harrisons sale site at Prees.Will catch up with you somewhere.
Cheers Dave.

Must have seen it go by Matt,as I was tipping Tracy off which lorry to take a pic of,but wouldn’t have known anyone off this site was in one of those. The thing is with mechanics you are probably in a different vehicle every time you go out.
Cheers Dave.

hiya,
Can’t say i’ve seen that one knocking about Dave, but do try to steer clear of major roads these days like the quiet life, although i still put the hammer down so’s not to be a pest and i certainly don’t get under the big fellah’s feet.
thanks harry long retired.

Hi Harry
