Well we are in Blackpool, :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: even the Daughter said it was a nice trip, changed at rugby and Preston, 2hr 50m trip, yesterday was windy, but today the sun is still shinning. Worn out after taking daughter and granddaughter to town center, wife is having a kip, I am sitting on the extra bed looking out the window at the north pier, refreshing my self on the net. :wink: :wink: :wink: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Glad you are having decent weather Norm. A bit of all sorts this way, one minute sunshine, the next thundery rain.
Suppose to be wet here tomorrow, then a heatwave for a couple of days.
Enjoy your break.
Cheers Dave.

hiya,
There you go Dave, Old Norm getting decent weather disproves the old saying
that the sun only shines on the righteous, still waiting for rain here, it has had
a go but nothing of any consequence although Newcastle and Sunderland have
had a few torrential downpours over the last few days, I’m going to be a bad
lad and see if I can get a drop of rain here I hate using the watering can.
thanks harry, long retired.

We have had plenty of rain here Harry, all that needs watering here is the greenhouse and the hanging baskets which are under the eves of the bungalow. The rest of the flowers etc get plenty of sky juice.
Norm is a bit of a prophet, he knows what the weather is going to be.
Cheers Dave.

on occasion been accused of having β– β– β– β– β– β–  on the chips.
thanks harry, long retired.

Ugh, I have salt,pepper, and vinegar on my fish& chips. :laughing:

I’ve just come across this topic I used to work with 2 drivers who used to work for Bartons they were there when it was called Robin Hood Transport and stayed on after Robin Hood was sold to Bartons their names are Terry Bywater and Kenny Wesson sadly Kenny passed away some time ago we all worked at Stirlands they used to tell me some good stories about the Middle East 2 top blokes happy times

Yes Gazza, they ran to the middle east several times we ran, there was some great blokes on the trips, but some rogues as well. :wink: :wink: :wink:

Mate of mine made a comment about the influx on people from Bulgaria & Rumania, I said that more will co
me because of poor pay in those countries.
