Not too bad when youu was young Dave, you had a mop of hair. :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: never seen any photo’s of Harry when he was young, hmm was he ever young :question: :smiling_imp: :smiling_imp: :smiling_imp: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: I’ll give him " Nosser" :unamused: :unamused: :unamused: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Still got a full head of hair Norm,only a whiter shade. :laughing: I think Harry was he babe puller. I certainly wasn’t. I was with the same girl for 6 years who took that pic. We drifted apart after my accident,but she stuck with e for a couple of years after it. We were only young and remained friends.
ow a photo of Harry,can we tempt him to post one. :wink:
Cheers Dave.

hiya,
Dave, I wouldn’t have a clue how to post a picture, and I doubt if I could find a
camera that would withstand taking the picture, but I seem to remember the
odd photo finding it’s way onto various threads posted by other people that I’ve
met at different locations since I joined Trucknet, I too have a full head of hair
or I would have if I didn’t shave my head every few weeks.
thanks harry, long retired.

I’ the same as you Harry, I like to keep my hair short. Even in the 60’s when most of my mates had long hair,mine was short in comparison.
Cheers Dave.

This fine Single Malt stuff will make your hair stand on end, If we have any left that is, Regards Larry.

Oh dear I hope not What would Harry say, He might think im putting water in the malts Eh, Ha Ha , Regards Larry.

Larry water, harry don’t like that word, :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: he told me he never washed his lorry because he was a company man and didn’t want to cause the vehicle to rust! :unamused: :unamused: :unamused: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: Also he never liked water in his malt whisky, because he found it cost him too much to get drunk with it in. :smiling_imp: :smiling_imp: :smiling_imp: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

hiya,
Yes and to economise with water at every opportunity, I worked for many hauliers
in my time on the road and I do mean many some of them more than once in that
time I was never asked to wash a motor and can’t honestly say where the wash was
situated at any of the places I worked, I did on occasion use the airline to get rid of
the ■■■ ash which was normally ankle deep in the drivers footwell if it got too deep
it would get you’re feet mucky.
thanks harry, long retired.

We had a bloke that chewed tobacco and smoked a pipe on one firm I drove for. No one wanted to drive his lorry, as the old boy used to spit on the floor. I suppose the no smoking has helped in that case, but I do know a few that are still smoking in company vehicles until they are caught. wink:
Cheers Dave.

Let them smoke Dave, :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: but they might get a wet behind if their non smoking mates give it a wash out with a pressure hose! :sunglasses: :sunglasses: :sunglasses: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Never like ■■■ smoke Norm, dirty stinking things. Its up to the individual if they smoke,but not for me. I certainly didn’t like driving a smokers lorry, you can was them out, but you can’t get rid of the smell.
Cheers Dave.

I tell my wife to change her clothes regular, because you can smell it on their clothes after they have a ciggarette, it makes me heave if I catch a whiff of smoke. :grimacing: :grimacing: :grimacing:

Harry will a roll up do as I just smoke rollies now used to smoke full strength for over 30 years but too expensive now :unamused: :laughing:
cheers Johnnie :wink:

hiya,
No Riggers didn’t smoke for a while before I found out about the “C” thingy and no way do
I have a crafty smoke now, although if someone was to smoke in my company it isn’t any
problem in fact I quite like the smell of a newly lit ciggie but am not tempted to buy any
had the scare eight years ago that was enough for me, wouldn’t push my luck now, trying
to get a bit more pension before I croak I’ve paid plenty in, plus cigs are too expensive.
thanks harry, long retired.

hiya,
Wasn’t it always 1/4th gill in Scotland and 1/6th of a gill in England, I know I always got drunk
quicker in Glasgow than I did in Carlisle.
