    This just caught my eye; Very cheap pups. I’ve hunted around Ballarat, and although I’m not a fan of Airedale crosses, if I lived there I would be tempted to give one of these a go. Cheers.

    My brother worked for the local council for almost 50 years as a Health & Safety manager. He told me that years ago the council told the bin lorry drivers they would have to have H & S training as they were now to be responsible for the safety of the bin men and the public and they would have authority to hand out fines for putting the wrong rubbish in the bin. The drivers did this for a pay rise. Now the council wanted to renege on the deal and reduce their wages, just as Birmingham are doing.

    I know mate. A friends daughter was a waitress at The Outback in Texas, she was telling me that she didn’t get any pay from the company, but she had a block of tables she looked after and employed two busboys , and paid them out of her tips and still made a decent living.

She tore my bill up and said me and my missus were her guests. I felt bad but we took her and her family out for a meal at the Tower of the Americas in San

    My only foray into banger racing was way back when I was an apprentice and a couple of us got hold of a Ford Consul 375.

Cheers.
