The Lads Move Down South

where the streets are paved in gold...


"That's it..." said Gaz,
"it's time to do something radical, we can't wait around in LIverpool any longer waiting to be discovered."

So they all packed their over-night bags and headed for the the heavily congested motorway - the M6.

(The M6 links the wealthy south of England with the poverty stricken north ! )

Dez went on ahead, using his economical "Saver" ticket, an easy and convenient way to travel !
As they huddled together by the side of the busy thoroughfare, desperately trying to maximise their collective bodyheat against the elements.
"Come on lads, even though these harsh winter conditions are making our plight ever more disheartening... " said Lardo, the ever resourceful one, "... it's important to smile so as to appear attractive to passing truck drivers."
Nick shrugged grudgingly and barked...
"I WON'T be cold man ! "

"Oh look..." said Kwinn

"No wonder we're having little luck trying to hitch a ride..."

"What the hell are you on about - you fool"

blurted Lard'.

"we were so excited about getting to London that we wrote LIVERPOOL on our sign, but we're IN Liverpool now ! We need a ride to London, that's why nobody is stopping for us, they think we're idiots - ho ho."

Oh they did laugh...

"How stupid we are - ha ha ha ..."

Gaz guffawed,

"we'll need to do better than this if we hope to survive in the big smoke !"

Eventually a friendly, burly articulated lorry driver, Johnny - from Doncaster, pulled over and offered them a lift in his cosy cabin. The boys shared their story with Johnny, and he laughed and laughed and laughed too...

(.... all the way to London...)
