Message: Emoticon Listing HTML Help	[quote]This one was done as a dare for the sum of half a crown, 2s/6d real money (12.5p monkey money). The dare was to lie between the rails and be run over by a loco and wagons. The location was the line from Coppice Colliery, near the bridge over the road. The location was carefully selected, loco appeared and P K dashed in front of it. He got down into the lowest hollow between two sleepers. The loco and wagons screeeched to a halt. The driver got out and started running back to see what had happened. P K got up and ran away, the driver shouted at the group who had watched the event unfold. We took off like we had our ? on fire. I think that is the fastest I have run in my life. That took place in the late 50s. We used to put copper coins and 6 inch nails on the track to be squashed. We did some stupid things then and now we shake our heads at the antics of todays youth. nowt changes regards phil[/quote]
