Rent a bloody gob what a blast from the past, my nightmares have returned !!!!!!! the last I heard of you was you were driving the Stage Coach (not the bus company) from Mablethorpe to Sheffield and back, glad to here you are still above the soil not like a good number of our former colleagues, then I see Belly's son is on this page as if the week isn't bad enough with you joining us !!!!!!!! All the best to both of you, keep taking the tablets 'Up The Owls'

Listen all you guys....if you want a reunion don't you forget that Sheffield Transport Sports Club is still going!!!! We were started in 1921 for the likes of you lot on the job and we still provide a brilliant little club up at Meadowhead...why don't you let us book you our function room for a grand reunion night sometime? Loads of our locals used to be past drivers and inspectors and they'd all love to meet up and remember the good old days! You'll have great prices, your own private bar and loads of free parking....get yourselves up here and have a pint and a natter, you'd love it!!!!! Ring 0114 2373216 to book a great night out.
