all four and a half ton of it

There's someone round the back of that truck having the wheels away.

they have had to weld the nuts on the bolts to stop them nicking it
it only weighs four and a half ton

Does it work?

Whats the betting some little scroat will have his name sprayed on the side of it before the days out.

Its inevitable to be honest. It looks a weird place to put it mind.

Could put someones eye out with that!

Health and safety assessment anybody?

LOL, it should really have yellow and black tape around it to make it more visible. Otherwise people may walk into it

I just got a delivery of 88 gallons of Fosters, 66 gallons of John Smiths (will that be enough for you Mutt)? and a others which I can't be arsed to type

Where've they put it Mr Gremmlin??

It can't be Hartlepool. The sun's shining, the sea is blue and flat as a millpond and there's no fat single mothers stuffing Greggs pasties down their kids faces.

And there's no turds or 'chuddy' on the block paving, plus the railings look like they are completely covered in black paint!

we headlanders have defended our fence from there since 1860
there has always been a gun on this site
but they were twenty yds to the left of this site
they have spent forty grand doing up the site
the railings are new last year and are poly coated re placed the old wooden white ones
this site used to house the magazine thats why it is six feet below road level
the welders finished it yesterday afternoon and they did not have the gear in the van when two sixteen year old chavs were climbing along the barrel
since then there has been a procession of the barstewards on it dont they know it is mine
the barrel was from english heritage and heerema apprentices did the base

says on the breech 4'5 in mk111 from 1945
so probably never fired in anger
apparently it is staying grey in colour
guidelines from the heritage people who say coastal guns were various shades of grey

I don't like it....it looks like a gun out of Hollywood fillum. It ought to look sort of grimmer and more menacing.







I think I'll go along to-night and paint it Bismarck-grey

I might go and paint it in blue and white stripes.

you stick to your verandah mr kev
the sun always shines on my little acre

Don't forget PK, when he lived in the town, didn't live in the right part of town, so what would he know about a beautiful view from God's Country.

Hah!!! Snowy said he was down your gaff a couple of weeks ago and he almost drowned on dry land with the waves crashing over the wall!!!

There must have been some impressive rainbows!!

snowy has been a frequent vistor since his bathroom became a no go zone
salt air is bracing as a anti perspirant if only we could bottle it

I'm not even going to ask......
