robin craig Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Tony, me thinks the AA needs a new building in your neighbourhood where your new acquisition can be stored!:thumbsup: So are you teaching Helen to drive it or are those kids of yours all grown up now and can drive it?

R I did think of painting it yellow and covering the back in reflective stripes:cool2: we will see Urban recovery vehicle for those rough housing estates. Yep Helen can drive it and the kids are now 23 and 25 and dont do playing with dads stupid hobbies :undecided: It will be a useful addition for Beltring and will save alot of humping and straining(Ohhhhhh Vicar) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
