  1. Type in Hauliers in the search facility at the top right hand corner. Otherwise go to the Forums page, and scroll down to the Transport section, and you should find it .
  2. Anyway, let's get back to the original post. Wollaton nowadays definitely isn't the quiet, select, and pleasant place it was previously. It's been over developed, over populated, and is now over rated. I left in the mid 80's, and I could see the direction it was heading even then !
  3. The last time I frequented the one in Newark, there was a family with a baby in nappies, and it was sitting on the table in the cafeteria. As I was at the checkout, I noticed another baby in a nappy sat on the bleddy belt. Don't these dorks realise that customers put their food on the tables and belts ? Who on earth wants a pikeys kids wee on their fresh veg !
  4. Ben, blokes with jumpers (especially pink) strategically placed over their shoulders do the shopping, while their 'husbands' mooch about in the car park.
  5. Yeah ! Twats with sunglasses on their heads at ten at night !
  6. It's supposedly the trendy thing to do, as strolling along nonchalantly shopping with free coffee in hand gives the impression that you're a superior being, and at ease with the world, and not a care I the world. Me ? I walk through the door of Tesco's, and my hands turn to claws, my feet turn to hooves, and I suddenly want to demolish the place full of chavs, kids, old people, slow people, fat people, tattooed people, hairy backed oafs in sweaty vests. Well anybody who gets in my way really.
  7. Sainsburys in Arnold has the cheapest fuel in this area, however Asda is cheaper still, but only if you pay by card.
  8. We use one in Lymington, Hants, when staying with relatives, and it's ludicrous. EVERYTHING is much more than here.
  9. I just wish that Lidls would ditch the non food items, and stick to good quality reasonably priced produce.
  10. It's called that now RR, but in the late 50's I'd cycle up Churchfield Lane, turn right onto St P's St to the bend, then a cinder track led over the Leen and the railway, then another track to Northdown Rd. We always called it Tadpole Ln. Just over the railway bridge, it was possible to turn right, and go past where Collins is now, and reach Aspley Lane.
  11. Tadpole Lane. Was that the short cut from St Peters St, and over the railway ?
  12. You can try all you like Ben , but you're only getting one like !
  13. Funnily enough Jill, she only had an appointment reminder last week. LOL
  14. Been emptying out a compost bin today, and digging it in to a raised bed. Then an afternoon on the patio reading. However, in for dinner now, but madam shouted that there's a dead rat on the lawn. No, there's no rats since next door demolished their old shed. It's a hedgehog then ! What at 6pm I said. It's a dog turd then. Rubbish I said. Next she said its a dead blackbird. Finally, I got up to investigate. Well we'd had the washing out today, and I'd recently brought the umbrella type clothes line in. What was it then ? Not a bird, rat, hedgehog, or even a turd......... It was a
  15. Essences of NS in there Kath. Wonderful.
  16. Whilst at Plessey / GPT, I spent over 12 years working on fibre optic telecom systems for BT and Mercury. Also, optical matrix displays on the M6.
  17. Beckham was going to visit and dole out a few reassuring utterances, but he's ended up at Walesby !
  18. Oz, I think drink and gambling advertising is rife amongst sport, but I'm sure youngsters aren't swayed by such things. I was drinking years before supporting Forest on a regular basis. As for gambling, who on earth is going to be tempted by that overweight, talentless slob, Ray Winston?
  19. No, the name doesn't ring a bell, but I was there in GPT days, but was mainly dealing with the HQ in Coventry.
  20. Which hairspray do you use Rog ?
