    A few years ago Alexei Sayle had a column in a Sunday paper where he mentioned that on tour they had a contest to tell the most boring but true story. My entry would have been the story told to me by our deputy engineer when i was working for the coal board. I was working on my own on an outbye haulage engine when Pete arrived and decided to stop and talk. He told me how he had been going to walk down to the Chapeltown Asda when his young daughter asked if she could come with him , he was reluctant as she was so young but he agreed and she walked all the way there without asking to be carried so as a reward he bought her a bottle of pop they walked all the way home and she did'nt ask for a drink and so he ended the story after twenty minutes by saying "so now we've got a bottle of pop in the fridge" i couldn't say anything in case i burst out laughing.
