A cheaky pikey walked up my drive yesterday, asked who was getting rid of the remains of my sierra, told him local scrappy was and he said oh, i told him if he gave me something for it he could have it though.
Out came a roll of 20's an inch thick and agreed a tenner, cheap as but the local scrappy pride themselves on removing cars for free so seeing as I dont have a trailer to take it there myself it was a tenner I wasnt going to get otherwise.
They came back a couple of hours later with a truck, I asked what he was going to do with it and he sheepishly said 'yea just weigh it in' so I said alright bung this lot in then, make it heavier (bonnet exhaus, trim, other crap I didnt want) He was happy as larry and I got a clear drive again.
IOW is like the deep south, cant sneeze without everyone knowing etc so know nothing will happen, wasnt really a true traveler type though as non over here, they get run off into the solent by farmers lol
