Davies Int. Southampton. With photos (Part 1)

Hi Richard…
Sounds like a great trip! Sad that things change so much…think we had the best of the day’s way back then.
I’ll leave you to liaise with the Rossini heavy mob… Tell them not to take those old lire coins ■■■■■■■ with sellotape.

Great pic of Angie.

Best wishes,
Balders.

Great photo of Angie, Richard…Oh and i managed to give Special Branch the slip by mingling
with a load of Syrian refugees, and they just waved us through. :unamused: :unamused: :laughing: :laughing:

Balders I have been watching your posts and you seem to have worked for a lot of different firms, were you in direct competition with Mappo cos I thought he held the outright record for multiple employers but I may be wrong, Buzzer.

Hi Tone,

I heard you were on your way to Germany with the refugees,they told you they were heading for the woods there,you misheard them and thought you would get some cake,but what they said was they are going to the Black Forest Ghetto !!
Regards
Richard

That was a bad one for you Richard, very bad, very very bad… :frowning: :blush:

Ha! That’s a cracker Richard!

Not sure about that JD…I’ve never counted but I did do a lot of freelance in the 80’s.
Maybe when I’m bored I’ll have a count up and compare notes with Tone. Would there be a prize?
I never worked for Richard though, so he had a lucky escape there…

That’s a shame you did not work for Richard as you could have talked to him face to face and I heard both of you were turned down by the Police for being vertically challenged Mappo told me that. Richard was in charge at the Flying squad at least that’s what all his drivers used to say, I think he was involved with the special branch but broke away from that in a bad storm one night, Buzzer.

A splendid drive out today in the New Forest with my team of Gelderlanders, this shot was taken on top of an observation mound and you could see into Dorset for about 20 miles as the weather was kind and the sun shone all complete with a picnic lunch, trifick cheers Buzzer.
