hiya,
Thanks Dave I didn’t realise I was championship class at anything
I do happen to know that my Egyptian physical training is pretty
good I’ts done in the same position as the horizontal tango but is
accompanied by decibal busting snoring which I believe is capable
of awakening the “brown bread”
thanks harry, long retired.

Well lads you might be wondering where I 've got to. Well last night I spent several hours picking out winner a Huntingdon, which I put into practice today, my future son-in-law was over the moon with several outsiders I told him to back, ew at 16/1, 20/1,& 14/1, he was about £80 pounds up, so the last race but one I told him this one will win, it’s 12/1 Belle de Fontenay, so he went and backed it, it lead from almost the start, came to the last, resisted a challenge up the run in, and won by nearly two lengths, he had a big smile on his face, and said evertime I treat you to a day at the races with a meal layed on, I have gone away with the meal and ticket paid for and more money in my wallet, this time is even better, I but £20 win, and it came in at 10/1. He said you must have back it Norm, I calmly said yes, I did, in my Lucky 63 £! win bet with two other winners and a non runner, and in my other bet, a lucky 63 50p ew with three placed horses , the prices above, and I had a £10 ew on it. I collected from the Tote, then went out of the grandstand down to bet Freds, and collected my lucky bets, we both lost on the last race, the one I told him to back was 66/1 it came third, but we had no luck, it was a seven horse race, it cost me £50, but I won so much it was a drop in the ocean, I had to stuggle to close my wallet, but when I got home and gave the wife a few twenties it closed alot easier. Now you know what I have been up too.

No Dave, I am wondering if that was the reason the arabs split up with him, I am over the sticks now.

[harry_gill]

hiya,
Norm your’e over the sticks, I’m over the hill, well over the hill,
and as for picking winners, no way my nose yes, winners no but
I am always available for free information, my studying of the
form gets me nowhere.

Well Harry, I went in to town to renew my bus pass, it runs out in march next year, we have to go to the library, show your bus pass, they bring up your details and your photo, being I was looking as young as I was when I sent the photo in, they said your new bus pass will be sent to you in ten days time. Owing to my wallet being a little heavy after being at Huntingdon, I treated my wife to a new top, and a meal, I also nipped in to Ladbrokes and put on some 5p & 10p bets, well I don’t want to give it back, my total bets was £37, after lugging the shopping home, I checked my bets and blow me down, I got £50 to come back. My wife went last week and she had to have her photo taken, I laughed and said, maybe they think I’m your toy boy, I am five years older.

hiya,
That’s where we differ Norm if my “guvnor” needed a new photo for her
bus pass or passport I would say to her, there you go Darling I told you
you are looking younger, you see Norm immediately in the good books
and favours aplenty for a day or two, you can’t get past it the old world
charm works everytime, you see Norm all these good tips for you given
freely other folk pay a fortune.
thanks harry, long retired.

hiya,
Never checked Dave but did those old Scammell’s have springs, it didn’t feel like it,
and the ride wasn’t much better when coupled to a fully freighted trailer.

the buses around here are all antiques , i think they have been nicked from some museum or other . most of them seem to be on l or n plates , i feel sorry for the drivers really , they are all probably hooked on seasick pills , miserable shower of (zb) .

[lawrence_dunbar]

Well I sometimes pop into town on the so called service buses, They are noisey, & rattle , in fact I dont know how the drivers put up with it I know I certailey would not, H & S Should be looking at this situation, If any one worked in a factory with noise like this they would be told to wear ear muffs Im sure, Regards Larry.

[dave_the_renegade]

Bus what’s a bus,we have to put up with flies dust and horse smell,Yeehaw.

[rigsby]

i believe you dave , when you get off the main roads down radnorshire you have to keep a sharp lookout in case the natives start chucking spears at you . anon

Ha Ha Dennis now we know how you started your transport firm! When I started on Northampton buses, they had semi-automatic’s, but the one they took you out to train on, was from out of the ark, it was a crash gear type, I am almost sure it was a Thorneycroft, I love it I could play a tune on the gearbox, it had air-condition, all the windows would open wide, whether you wanted them too or not.

hiya,
Zero diesel bill, no tax or insurance, a bit of dried grass stuffed in at one end
and the other end producing gardeners delight at 10 bob a bag Eh’ can’t go far
wrong didn’t you sometimes think you was in the wrong business running those
road going fuel guzzlers which you had to buy and all those wages you had to
pay, Dennis a smashing hobby and totally different from your normal routine.
