It's certainly an impressive looking piece, you'd never know it was a fake.

I had one like that too but the constant niggles and backfiring led me to chop it in for a younger model on rental

I say old chap, i don't understand the words that are leaving your mouth!! but a cup of tea is a jolly fine idea!!
You're up early Dicky, off out somewhere? How's the "New venture" going?

[DickyC]

Felt rough last night and went to bed early. 400 miles in the truck nearly did for me - I ain't getting any younger. Early to bed, early to rise though. Just doing a bit for the Humer Unbeam thread. Nice people in Bourton on the Hill in a garage that was a pig farm...

Truck business a bit slow. I'm on here when I should be peddling my wares.

I think that's one of mine. You say it in a "the office odd bod" voice getting a bit shrill on "noice." Believe it or not I had a whole drawing office doing it once. Every now and then one of the fellow sufferers sends me a text or email with "I'm gonna have a noice cuppa tea now" and nothing else. It's heartening.

We do the same with

Talkin’ to me?? (more torkinamee?)

Eat yer fud! (said in broad Glaswegian and emphasis on the t and d)

How’s your old knob? (said in broad Suffolk as ‘hoos yarrold knaab?’)

There’s came from events in pre history but the yearly telephone call to the lads always starts with one of them, Christmas cards have one in as the only message,

And I thought it was just us

Nope, down here whenever someone comes into your area, we shout "Get off moiy larnd!!" In a proper carrot cruncher voice!!
We used to wind our team leaders up on Fridays by only using three selected questions to answer everything E.G. "Is it supposed to sound like that?" "Do you need a hug?" "When's the nurse coming then?" ETC used to drive them nuts!!!

I was told to 'do what you fking want!!' many years ago. Shouldn't have said it to a young Bomma, I moved 2000 miles away and bought a Datsun 240Z. Probably not what she expected but there you go.

Incidentally, she still lives in our old home town. I saw her once in Tesco, had to hide in the frozen veg aisle.

[Jim AK]

And I'll tell you another thing........

Well actually I won't, it was just for the thread!

[Bobberoo99]

I have a question, just when did teenagers become such useless, unimaginative, self worth driven, not interested beings? I only ask as I have yet another apprentice and today has been like pulling teeth!!!! When I was an apprentice I wanted to know EVERYTHING!!!
