Postby SLIPPY » Sun Apr 15, 2012 2:07 am

Owrighty Folks :lol:

Well where do I start :? :lol:

1st thing I like to say is a massive Thank you to AlanN , Honestly Thanks man 8)
2nd thing is :- Thanks to Ake anaw :wink:


Right , Ok I took the Huff about 1 year ago and said I would never be back , as soon as I said it I was gutted to be honest ...... I love my vans and love my transits so as you can imagine I was gutted when I quit last year. I am not gonna go into it , in fact the only person to blame is myself so I hope that clears that up and we can move on :D .................... Nuff said !

I have a shed load of catching up to do but right now I have the following things to say about some folks on here ....

Ratwood :- RIP brother , Sue called me to let me know... Peace and God bless man , you were a star for coming to one of my partys and a true great vanner :cry:

AlanN :- well done mate , congratulations on becoming a MOD , one of the best on here and again another great vanner..... by the way ... Happy belated birthday fella :wink: :lol:

Ake :- cheers for everything dude , without you I doubt this post would be possible. Its Good to be back again boss :D

Mike S :- Mike , what can I say man , Your another one on here that has lasted the time and no doubt about it man , your a very clever fella and love your vans . I would like to think we can let any old stuff be old stuff and move on to be more compatible with each other , I have no issues with you and actually learn a lot of you from this forum ..... sometimes mate I just loose the plot and go off on one..... I hope you accept this as my way of saying , sorry man , no hard feelings eh ?

Mike MPUK :- Although I see no recent posts , i know you will be see this and again , no doubt about it fella , another very clever man and this forum would be at a loss without you..... Hurry up and get posting back :wink: :D

Guy88 :- wow nice van matey ..... couldn't of went to a better person , I need to catch up with lots of posts but i bet its coming on a treat ......

Luke :- Thanks for everything man & Glad to see your still working as hard as ever to keep this place one of the best

TransitAndy :- another strong foot soldier , its folk like you that make this forum as good as it is 8)

Vantunner :- my main man :D Martyn I hope you see this man , if not its no worries as we will no doubt chat on the phone soon anyway . Thanks for the bairns Christmas Presents you sent up 8) , Wee Zander is coming on braw man and we are due another in 10 weeks :shock: . I hope you enjoyed all my old London Pirate Radio station recordings from the 80's ..... I have a shed load more tunes if ever you need new tunes. Cheers for the mention on your website anaw about my parties :lol: . You know the score man , fire up here anytime dude , doors always open here man and we can tan that bottle oh whiskey again :D :D

100 T280 :- hey Chris matey , I hope your still kicking about on here , it was no the same having a party without you being here .... I get your jokes that you always send me on my mobile so I know your still alive at least :lol: ..... Doors always open here man , you know the score at my place .... you can come up and stay for as long as you like again , no problem .... hope your well and safe mate :?:

Belly :- Belly man , I would be lying if I said that in the last year , I have never had a wee nose now and again on here and when I do , I always N-joy reading your posts , You love your tranny sport man and always seem to see the positive side of life , Well done mate :wink:

All the SCOTTISH VANNERS :- hey ho , Humble pie then slippy :lol: I will catch you lot on the other side :lol: :lol:

i could go on and on , but I still have a wee bit to write , so to the folk I missed eg Jay , mickdee , gaujaluncher ,cossie7 , transitgeoff , etc etc .... Hi ..... Am back !

so just incase you have noticed , my reg plate is on regtransfers for sale.... The thing is ...... I dont want to sell it , it only cost me £870 + £130 DOT fee , but I wont sell it for that . It made me think what i would sell it for so I came up with a price of 10K ( even then I am still not sure if I want to sell it ) anyway I listed it for 10k ( the rest is reg transfers add on fee )
I hope it never sells but then again , I would be daft if someone ever offered me the 10k hence thats why its listed. I dont care if folk dont think its worth 10k , I dont even think its worth 10k but if anyone wants it then its 10k , until the I am more than happy to have it on my van

now for those of you who dont know me , here is a bit oh history
