LONG TOM, and I don’t mean Tom Crawford.
Our new toy came today, it’s a whopper. Not so easy to unload but the team done good.
When a chinaman rings you at 11pm and asked if you’re free the very next day for a bunch of them to tank drive- it’s worth getting out of bed and traipsing across the yard to check the job Calendar Coz Chinese love tanks and big guns and I like to play in the mud!!
Tod did a crush with a blind guy first and the Chinese crushed two cars to, so we need lots more we’re still paying double scrap, collecting and making them famous on here.
I’m still not sure if the guy we called Chinese northern lad was Chinese but taught English by a northern guy or a Chinese guy who was raised up north,confusing isn’t it.
An afternoons shooting and I never got shot. Girls and guns,they love um. Had two of these beauties for a few months and not had the time to try one.
Love the balance and build quality and Kate shot some great groups,I’m betting only one guy on here can guess the make.
***PARROT SALE***
Possibly a whole day off from Tanks today. Parrot training takes priority. My part time semi professional physiatrist (wife, zoo keeper) has hinted that maybe 34 big swearing parrots is A little excessive hence I have a few for sale. If you can give a happy home and understand that a parrot can live for 70 years and be more loving and demanding than a Labrador, time to get your purse out I have some very cuddly birds.
Busy day in the Afghan workshops today. Mr smith on Russian tank torsion bars with young Rob. Tod on a private car crush with a family celebrating the oldest sone 21st and me beating party tank with a big hammer.
Welding discreet steps on the front tomorrow. Needs lots of love to get it to the London standard of Tanklimo. When it got dark Nigel gave Young Rob a left over rocket to show us a party trick.
How disappointing, I thought we were having a swap. Then I found out I couldn’t have a fly in it either.
We do love our little Bear, although he’s not so little. He reminds us of Genghis- just a different colour. He’s loving and has a special bond with flash! Just remember; he’s mummy and daddy’s protector, especially mummy!
Before you run an L200 over remember it’s just a sponge of paint, away from being a technical. Really glad I saved mine and gave it a new lease of life.
It is possible to get the mud out of our hair, we don’t scrub up too bad do we!! . Thank you Kate and Pip for inviting us to your wedding. Don’t forget to finish my bike before you go on honeymoon!!!
Have you any idea how tiring it can be waiting around for 8 hours to do a performance that lasts 10 seconds. I pulled in a few favours and got Johns performance time increased to a full 15 seconds. Not once but twice a day.
We did the maths and his hourly rate worked out better than Frank Bruno while being punched in the face by Mike Tyson.
Lots of (and I mean over a hundred) officers from foreign armies from around the world at the fire power show. They were very impressed at our tanks and several commented on our slickness. Stuff all that the best offer I could get for Jill was 11 camels. Think I’ll keep her.
Home at last, happy to be back, missed my little world at the farm. Great to know that whilst I was away my team was epic and managed everything for me. Just goes to show really after reading this 5* review.
If you need an H license, look no further we are your go to company!! Look 👀 see, this review says so!!!
Another seamless day running a load of dodgy Ruski armour.just one day left on the base . We have been made very welcome by all at the British army. Caught someone nicking me ham roll, was I a little harsh.
A fun day for all when Daniel and James came on a private car crush with us. They had a bit of clay shooting to and Daniel was slightly the better with some impressive snap shooting. Both drove great. A real pleasure,easy on the machines, and easy on my grey hairs, in fact I think I went a bit blonder. Kate was happy to ride on the 2s1 after seeng how easy it was to instruct them on the 432.
James ran over a low milage Peugeot that to be honest I had plans for but we are always a bit low on cars.
Don’t forget we are paying double scrap price at the moment.
The last full Monty of the year before the clocks go back and we can’t fit one in. Cold,wet,loads of mud. Lots of daft grins from 6 teams of 12 people all competing to crush a car in fast an furious 6.
Good food, good fun, and a wet bum.
More fun and games at The Village on Salisbury plain the full army experience. Bit like the war and peace only all the vehicles look newer.
Jollied up the L200 with some autumn coloured camo paint and the gun’s running well.
Had to have a day away from the firepower jobbie at Salisbury plain with the chaps fighting the army. We had a non English speaking corporate day back at Tanks a lot for 24 felt more like 124.
Couldn’t stay away from my beautiful new wife any longer all because I love her so much.
Hope you like big bangs. This is some footage from yesterday. I can tell you now two freshly picked rose hips picked straight of the bush pushed in your ears are more effective than throwaway ear defenders. Not a lot of people know that.
More of the same practising today, but some very large explosions and I mean very large.
The Apache got involved a lot more and it’s all coming together nicely I have no doubt the finished display will be very impressive and underwear sales rocket. I spent my day spannering on various tanks a lot armour.
Repaired a fan drive on the BTR60
Tweaking the brakes on the MTLB so it could a sexy skid stop.
Fixing a fuel leak and bled the fuel system on the T55
The vehicles have never gone better or been driven better, but tomorrow’s another day, they are being worked very hard.
Lots of practising today. More practising tomorrow but with Apache and typhoons joining in, must find my ear defenders tomorrow instead of sticking two rose hips in my lug Ols.
Needs a bit of love but runs well, coming to a wedding near you. Great for Tank Tours around London to. All road legal and rearing to go.
The grim reaper strikes again,with his merry band of helpers.
We want old mot failures running or not, paying over double scrap value and we even collect locally.
No tanks today. Been picking old cars up for crushing, have a Mondeo lined up for collection tomorrow. We are paying double scrap price at the moment. Time to get rid and let us make them famous.
If you don’t ask, you don’t get. Loving playing soldiers. Got used to being the enemy but won’t get used to their sausages! Any one with a good sausage needs to wack a sample over to the MOD, you’re bound to win the order.
I’m missing my loved one but Majec bought his with him. Lots of hurry up and wait today. Time to catch up on some shut eye these ungodly early mornings are taking their toll
Day one getting ready for battle. Think majek looks mostly like some dodgy insurgent.
