dunny !!

The cost of scrap is sky high at the moment. I got £70 scrapping the Sierra recently and that was just a shell, gear box, engine, steering rack, prop
shaft had all been sold, no running gear left on it an the diff and steering column are in my car. It wasnt that long ago that you had to pay them to
get rid of a car.
Church roof's are regularly being stripped of lead and copper and I know of at least one instance where a plumber had a new bundle of 15mm
copper lifted from his van.
The top story dosent surprise me at all.

do you think the name'll stick? probably more likely to evolve
In with the old out with the new. New washer in to replace the one with burnt out motor.
"What we going do with the old one" she asks. 'I'll put it out the front, top of the drive' says I.
"The council won't take it, you'll have to ring them first" she says.
Nevermind, 15 minutes later it was gone


happens alot more than you think that there have been loads off plumbers pipe shutes broken into round here and you have to be alert of the rag and bone man they take any metal that aint strapped down
it still seems all the rage to steal lead round here
but it keeps me in a job
i do feel for the customers tho.
