Surreptitious Traffickers of Transport Stuff


Q. Had you ever wondered what STTS stood for?
A. Surreptitous Traffickers of Transport Stuff!


Note the latest sneaky box, surreptitiously smuggled in and hidden under a jacket. Not well enough, boys!

DESTINATION: not our attic, no way!

A fortnight ago, the tram destination blinds arrived. I made sure I congratulated the wife of the sneaky tram-blind offloader for getting them out of HER attic -
- and assured her they wouldn't be getting as far as mine.

And they didn't. For the first time EVER, they left the house that very same week!

Books Galore


The Esteemed Secretary took delivery of a quantity of books, a month or so ago ...

It started with the boxes that wouldn't fit a Trabant

The Esteemed Secretary was conned - asked to help shift some boxes of transport memorabilia, he discovered on arrival at the destination that his car was big enough for lots of boxes but his partner-in-crime had cannily driven the Trabbie. Nice move! A number of big, fat boxes took up residence in our hallway, lounge and half-landing for the next 18 months or so.

No picture of this - the official photographer of STTS-Unveiled had not yet been self-appointed.
