LOL allegedly in his early days he used to travel to "jobs" on a bus taking his tools and explosives with him..........(or on a motorbike)

Saw his one man show many years ago-brilliant. Think he served in Royal Engineers a long time back - we always did "bangs" (and Sappers still do)

Ann, :-D :-D :-DThat would be his son. Have you listened to the one about when he was blasting at Brands Hatch or when he was cleaning out the Marlhole. brilliant.however, like others, lent it out and it was never returned.

:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

I think they've met......... they shook hands like gentlemen :-D

I remember Blaster Bates - wonder if he was related to Master Bates :-D

Scozz :-D :-D :-D

Bob, I still have a cassette; I'm trying to clean it up...of the scratches and crackles, that is ;-) :-D :-D :-D

The link I posted ~ IMHO it's not offensive.

Unless you're a sheltered little flower. :-( or an old grouch with no sense of humour :-)

I got into a lot of trouble on here a few years ago by mentioning something of the exploits of Blaster Bates.........

I once has a cassette tape of his works, but I foolishly loaned it to someone.....

Moral, never lend anything original.............to anyone.......

No Scozz, but I do remember him. I'm sure if I search I'll find some compilations :-D

The reason I put the Wiki link up was so that our itchy finger couldn't take offence.

You have to deliberately go from there to various links...at your own risk :-D :-D

Nowt to do with this thread if someone decides to venture further ;-) :-D :-D

I've never heard of him.

But I went looking......... there's a Wikipedia article, and LOADS on YouTube

I just watched: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOwven0Rt94

had to stop it half way through to go for a pee :-D I was laughing so much

No idea where you'd get recordings......... have you tried EzyDVD?

Blaster Bates?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blaster_Bates

I have used the above site to link to some of his stories.

Crude, brilliant, but so original and had me rolling about in laughter ;-) :-D

I have a cassette with his stories and am now looking for a cd or cds
