It might be worth a try Tony.As for next Wednesday being out.Thats ok with me.Im in no rush.Do you think that Buzzer will do a deal.Was it not you that told me that when he was a boy,his father gave him a good thrashing for giving his toys away? He has never forgotten that.So hes not given anything away since 
Sorry John.No offence intended.Regards Charlie

Well boys i could be the aswer you bin lookin for , in fact ivāe now got a trolly and its bigger than me uncles from london. I reckon i could take three and maybe four with the tailboard down on the chains, so if its a block bookin your lookin for give me a call, of course i would need a deposit from each and every one of the selected so you better get together on who its goin to be. The deposit is of course non refundable just in case i go first, this is normal policy so no moaning, in honesty i think this is something which could be discussed at the AGM in august. Just to mention that if there should be a gap between clients Hori has secured a favourable rate for frozen storage with Polarcold which is handilly placed next door to our yard so no worries on that score.
Jim i used to do weddings all the time but found most people took the ā ā ā ā , keepin you waiting for photos for hours so not so many nowadays.
PS. still no one has owned up to kicking Zebedee in the leg, its a long time ago now and ime sure he would forgive who ever did it so you can own up to it .
PPS. the funeral dept is called " GOING OUT IN STYLE " so ime not sure if Mappo could be included in them tight shorts, black socks and sandles, but if the monies there hes in.
I,ve not only got black socks ya know Buzzer, got white ones as well. ( well actually i havn,t anyore )
Good jod i didn,t work for ya in the 60,s cos i used to wear florescent ones then. 
As for the depositā¦could you wait till i,ve popped me clogs then claim from my estate. ( you,ll be lucky )
Tir Tone. All this talk of āpopping your clogsā is quite depressing reading for a Sunday afternoon. Just had a roast round at mine with Mum & Dad and have thrown in a few suggestions to ensure you go out in style. Once buzzer has delivered you, he will take the glass sides off and re-convert the cart back to normal Mon-Fri operations which as you know is meals on wheels. The cart is twin evap, so we will run the front half at plus twenty and the back as minus twenty five, seeing as you will be his first drop. The second drop will be at the wake, where he will deliver an unlimited amount of Ham, Egg and Chips in honour of your staple diet. Free ā ā ā ā will be on every table. Buzzer will be dressed for top to bottom in denim, along with some stick-on sideies out of respect for you. I have managed to procure from ebay some sheepskin seatcovers for his cart, a āFeu Orangeā air freshner and an orange air gun, thus emulating the vehicles you drove on here. We will be holding a āwhip-roundā bucket but have asked all concerned to only donate ten pence coins, in the event that you do make it, they will be ready for the fruit machine. In reality, hope you are ok Tone. TTFN ā ā
Hi just got back this morning after an overnight flight from Florida trying desperately to stay awake till later!
How about the addition of one of these for Mappoā ā ?
Regards Pat

Tone you are in that picture at bergamo so you must know who kicked Zebedee in the leg so tell all,by the way when in conversation with John (animal) Smith he and Richard Sharp went to try and find Bergamo while on a short european tour they ended in a super market car park and Smithy sent Sharpy into the supermarket to enquire where the old factory Philco was and the chap informed them that they were stood on the very same ground so it had been demolished to build the aformentioned supermarket, another of those Mary Hopkin moments boys.
Jimski:
Excellent John !! What a lovely pair didnāt know you did weddings John ā ā They would look good on my wedding websiteRegards Jim
Jim I never knew you had a wedding website, do you do many weddings ? there a pain in the backside really when you look at whats involved, i sold me white glass landau back a while, it was a nightmare to keep clean cos white shows every mark.
This is an early pic which Mappo didnāt borrow from Hori, it is from 1978 according to the back of the pic and is of my scanny 110 and is taken on Mont Cenis during a customs strike as you can see loads of trucks winding up above in the background. I put this on the M/Cenis site as well, the international badge on the frount grill was perloined from an international tractor but looked the part.

By the time on the office clock you must have taken the sandwiches in .Sorry to dissapoint you or though your very observant both Hori and ā ā ā ā ā ā are on health food, just took trevor in a steak and kidney pie and some donuts and here he was yesterday washin off a trailer.
Was in the yard looking for casual work in jan or feb as my usual stuff had dried upā¦ This bloke was washing trailers and showed me how to use a reefer unit. Nice guy as i recall

It is one and the same if he was never standing still ,jumpin about like he was on a hot plate. He did my trucks for a bit when he worked for Alan Watkins who had a yard in huntspond road, they used to sweatheart plastics up the road and unilever stuff back down froim sunlight wharf in Liverpool. Saw John Smith last year, but heās got a job to get about now.
Hi everyone,remember this place,tis Kodak Madrid. Got sent up to Edinburgh to tip bananas waited for a load to Austria but it fell through,so down to Hemel Hempsted and loaded Kodak bound for Madrid,but my memory gone as to where i went from thereā¦
Just seen an ex Davies fridge trailer still plying itās trade.Hooked up on a Scania refuelling in my local Kent petrol station ready to head out for the night.You could see where the horizontal Davies logo used to be, when the late evening sun was shining on it. 
Typoā¦should have said (vertical) logo. 
Peter Clue I can see you - how you doin shagā¦
Cluey - This is Parked in Patras. Keys under the grille. Need you to fly out and bring it back - urgent load for Johnnyās horses. I asked Zebedee first if he could do it but refused as it was not a fridge and fear of having an āimitationā Thermo King being bungeed onto the front bale. Hope your are well. TTFN
