Trackman 3 Posted December 28, 2006 I remember sitting next to Arthur in the Long Eaton changing rooms after a meeting. He showered, ran out to his car, & brought back a crate of beer for everyone. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> G/Day LT I've been with Arthur when he didn't have a crate in the car. .... (they never lasted too long with him and John Priest..... All the Best JP&LP) (;O))..... That didn't stop him, he just took the home teams, after meeting beer, before the last race, putting it into our change room.. he said, we might have lost the points, but they have lost their BEER! (;O)..... too old to remember the track, I think we were on a Northern tour?....... I know we missed the first meeting, the big fella had a piece of glass in his eye, the eye was the size of a tennis ball...... Regards. PS. All was ok in the end, by 8.30pm we was in the pub next door to the hospital. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
