I know you didn’t answer me, because you are scared of she who must be obeyed you know if you have a itch, you are certain to scratch it.
Now back to a subject I do know about, shoe’s and boots, because I come from a shoe making town, ever the football team are named the " Cobblers", womens shoes average sizes 5,6,7, people under always get bargains in sales also a few larger sizes. In mens sizes 6,7,8. in sales its the sames as womens, except you get more chance that larger ones are in sales. so Harry & Dave I say with sadness you have big feet.

hiya,
Norm in the words of the great Billy Smart if the cap fits wear it
Oh’ and Norm don’t forget the red nose and the grease paint.
thanks harry, long retired.
Harry in my younger days the clowns were the weighbridge tossers & the dockers, who thought they were god, but in actual fact they were just ■■■■ with a capital S, I have been in the haulage game all my life. My ancestors were haulage men so it speaks for its self why Im so interested, I have been arounnd the the block as the old saying goes, But Im still going & bloody enjoying it, haulage was & still is in my blood, & I hope I have a lot of years left to enjoy it. Regards Larry.

hiya,
Remember when working for Bowkers in the 60s got “volunteered” to help
move Billy Smarts circus from Rochdale to Blackburn I think the pay was a
tenner and free tickets good money for a couple of hours work in those days
here’s the thing that got me wondering was when alighting from the mini bus
at the collection point the instruction was to find “Norman” (our clown and also
transport manager), there was two of us with wag and drag experience so were
allocated old octopus’s pulling two trailers, often wonder what would have happened
had I had to reverse it at the new site Ewood Park, most likely would have finished
up in a knot my trailer boy was an Arab tightrope walker who ladeled copious amounts
of old engine oil into what had been a Leyland 600 engine at one time, it was the
longest, dirtiest and smokiest trip I’ve ever done, could have strangled that bleedin
Norman but never saw him again after the job was done, and George a coloured guy
who arranged the drivers for B S and was yard foreman at Bowkers seemed never to
be around when I was for weeks after I think someone had put it round I was gunning
for him, could easily have been up for two murders in those days.
PS this job was done in our own time one Saturday evening, nothing to do with Bowkers.
thanks harry,long retired.

Harry I helped put up a circus tent, when I was a young lad down at Midsummer meadow on the Bedford road, it must have been 1952/3.
