They used to be "Regal King Size" and way back when, "Embassy Regal".

I'm not sure when they dropped the "King". Probably nanny-state interference.

I bet they aren't that regal. Some of the tiniest businesses have the most grandiose names.

Slow plod along A75 and back to Carlisle just now.

Ok, some of you may have got the hints. It's my 1969 Reliant Regal 3/30 saloon. Bought in November 1991. It was road legal between Jan 1992 and May 1992.

Sorry it's not so much a collection, more of a removal/export job.

Now all I need to do is transfer that no-wheeler Regal shell sitting atop a Regal chassis, from ex-caravan chassis to car transporter.

I think if I can work smart, I can do this on me jack. Else I'll have see what help is available later from next door.

First idea is to see if it's possible to move the trailers back-to-back...

Cheap. Naw.

The only thing cheap now are Kensitas Club. Repositioned in a dark market at the cheapest end of the scale.

When I was a bus wanker, I used to smoke Embassy tips because even if the bus appeared round the corner at the end of the road, you could always guarantee to finish it before it got to the stop. :D

Good cigarettes are available cheaply on The Continent. When I lived in Hamburg, I practically lived on these, 3 or 4 Euros from a vending machine.

Both are a good smoke as well.

I'm not Mr Moneybags who can afford to fly his chod by air cargo. It's a long detour to The Continent too.

Another boat to catch at 0345...
