  1. I know it says over 60’s but it wasn’t a problem. I could get quite used to this eating out on ‘specials’ day.
  2. Medium wheel base, yours is a long wheel base.
  3. Is it the MWB?
  4. Smart looking truck, what’s the price over there, if you don’t mind me asking.
  5. You are a tease.
  6. Original engine and box.
  7. My mate, who’s long gone,, worked on the toll road from start to finish, he opened it with the first safety vehicle, he told me the aqueduct would never be used.
  8. You could get one of these rod retrieval tools, which are good, if you have a camera to see what you are doing with it, otherwise, if you have difficult fliuezchimneys to sweep get locking rods.
  9. My mistake, I didn’t realise it was a case of speed, I thought it was a case of sweeping chimneys/flues and not loosing your rods.
  10. Lock fast rods, anything you can’t turn anti-clockwise will give you trouble if you get the rods/brush stuck.
  11. Yes, it’s an aqueduct, when the toll road was built it was agreed that the cut would be diverted, never happened.
  12. I know this one, it spans the M6 toll road. Without Google what do you reckon it is, ‘bridge’ to nowhere..
  13. Halloween in Stoke.
  14. Sent the picture of the mostly eaten Oatcake to a mate of mine from Stoke who know lives in Oz.., his reply, that’s a small bite!, my reply, nah mate, I hadn’t got me false tooth in.
  15. My son dropped my iPhone 15 pro max which I bought just last week and cracked the phone slightly. I've decided to sell it off cheap. Below are the specs.. PM me if you're keen. 12 years old Male English Toilet trained Eats anything but Brussels Sprouts Price negotiable
  16. What do you need in life? Somewhere warm and dry? when me and the ex Mrs split I could have bought a place straight away, but there’s more to life than a pile of bricks. I’ve just bagged a new pitch in the middle of Stoke, it resembles the bronx, it has electric and water and is fenced in, it’ll do for winter.
  17. Absolutely glorious first thing, went down the cut to get some proper breakfast, a steam powered narrowboat came through, guess who didn’t have his phone with him. The Staffordshire Oatcakes with bacon cheese and mushrooms went down well.
  18. Reminded me of the Mrs Merton gag. Debbie, what first attracted you to the multimillionaire Paul Daniels…
  19. That was the MK5 bud.
  20. MK7, this is strong money for an 08 plate 140 Sport, 104k miles, it is tidy mind. Thinking of having a punt at it for a winter project to convert it into a day van to move on next spring. How much ya reckon?
  21. I am legit, it’s just some can’t appreciate it, you don’t get letters in your name if you are playing the game.
  22. Police what?
  23. I could go into it but…I pay council tax at a mates house, I pay the 25% uplift for the pleasure. The only point you’ve got that stands up is, I might not be paying council tax in the area I’m in, so what, do people pay extra council tax if they stay down the coast for a month? The places I speak of already allow overnight parking with the consent of councils why not just allow them to have 2-3 vans on over winter. It doesn’t affect me, I’ve got a pitch with my other box for winter, but there’s stacks of people looking for winter pitches. In the middle of a housing crisis.
