Thank you, you learn something new everyday don’t you. I thought it was hell but there we go you know the know! Actually I learn so much new stuff each day the old stuff gets pushed out and I have to repeat…I hate being me!
buenos tardes(good afternoon) my name is mick terry and my nickname on fransens (see other posts) was EEYORE given me by another fransen driver PUFF N BLOW when someone asked why was i called EEYORE they used to say eeyore eeyore eeyorall talks like that (stutter)
When i first started in the workshops another one of the fitter’s reckoned it would be a good cb handle so it stuck. Reasoning is that i’m tall (6’3) and thin like a nail (not quite so thin as 7 years ago, lol!) I have fair hair aswell so that’s where the rusty came from,
When i first found the original TruckNet forums back in 1834 (or whenever it was), before we went over to this new-fangled one, i loved the idea of the forum and knew that i’d be a part of it as long as it’d have me so wanted to think of a half decent username that doubled as an actual name, and was linked to my job, so Roger Breaker it was! …my given name’s Simon, by the way, hi!
It’s what i do & have done for the last 20 odd years, removals

Many years ago I work for BT as a cable jointer. ONe of the methods used was to twist the individual wires together and so I was nicknamed “wiretwister” by my footy team mates. We also had a “rodbender” “sludge” and a “grumpy gnome”
