There is a thread right now about milk traffic. I do recall about 45 years ago dealing with the Paddington Milk Tank Controller, who inevitably got called Ernie by those of us at Croydon. 

Looking at your avatar pic, you'd have been about 15 years old. :-)

Thanks! The cheque's in the post! The pic was taken last Summer, so isn't too much of a fake. I'll be 69 in November, as noted in another thread just now.

Great to see some equine action. Are the horses travelling from Limerick?

 

 

There was a horsebox from Brent

that somehow got sent off to Kent.

The Southern got flustered

and quite disgusted

beacuse the GWR were charging them rent.!

Of course we'll call him Ian,  that's his name.

 

Did you hear about the alcoholic transvestite gourmet who just wanted to eat, drink and be Mary?
