ReplyDeleteI bet people thought you were doing it for a bet.I hope you OK mate and still getting the miles after last weeks aggro.
ReplyDeleteTrack suit bottoms? Very Eastern European they are. After being covered in pigshit you even smelt like one. Big difference is, you had a shower.
ReplyDeleteNice to see you're rolling along nicely. Don't suppose the Goshen episode will even get a mention. Someone else is bound to have done something by now.
Well the truth is out, you all make fun of us Welsh and our sheep, so we now know your preference MR Garvey, PIGS, you could not resist the temptation for a little fun on the road eh? I know its a lonley life Dom but a threesome with a poor defensless animal. Only reason you were in shorts was you saw the situation and were stripping for action. lol. Git R Done.
ReplyDeleteDave.As you can imagine the truck did pong a bit but frabreeze is pretty good stuff and has took most of it away.
