Coffin of John ‘Butch’ Nash was towed through his home town on a skip lorry

John’s coffin was paraded via a skip lorry as it weaved its’ way through the streets of Portland in Dorset in December 2011.

Mr John Nash, who was 64 years old was also known as “Butch” and was the founder of a skip hire company in Dorset since 1997 and was known to be exceptionally generous by donating tens of thousands of pounds to many local charities.

Along our travels around Liverpool, we often get requests for skip hire Huyton – an area within the borough of Knowsley. We like visiting the ‘villie’ as the locals call it, not least because it was the birthtown of the fifth Beatle, Stuart Sutcliffe.

We often get asked to provide asbestos skips for removing this most hazardous of waste. So often, people ask us about asbestos pipe insulation removal – it really is the domain of the expert, and you should not try to do it yourself.

If you haven’t been following the blog recently, we’re reporting on the desperate attempts of junior basketball team; the Withington Warriors to make the Winter Play-Offs.
The TopSkips skip hire sponsored side needed to win 4 of 4 games in January and they’d got off to a good start, winning the first two. Here’s the report of their 3rd match, written by Team Coach – James Quinn.
23rd Jan: Salford Vikings
“Although they were out of contention for the play-offs themselves, the Vikings had proved themselves awkward customers, not least doing the ‘fouling out’ incident reported in September’s blog.
Again the team faced a last minute injury blow with Tobias Emare and Elliott Quinn both forced to withdraw through illness.
Despite this; the team, finding a consistency lacking in the earlier part of the season, was completely unfazed by the absences and with Andrew back in the side, the team brought home another three points.
A win in the final league match would now guarantee Warriors fourth spot and the chance to join Amaechi All Stars, Wright Robinson Sports College and Alder All Stars in the Semi Finals.”
Final Score: Warriors 28 – Salford Vikings 18
Nail-biting stuff, tune in tomorrow to find out if the Warriors made it into the Winter Play-Offs.

Right, where were we? Ah yes, on Friday I blogged about TopSkips skip hire sponsored Withington Warriors. The junior basketball team had secured the first of four desperately needed victories. Only by winning all four could they have any hope of making the Winter Play-Offs. Here’s how game two went; report by Team Coach, James Quinn:
16th Jan: Belle Vue Blazers
“Sometimes in sport – as in life, it is important to lay a few ghosts to rest. Back in November, in the Warriors only previous encounter with the Blazers, Warriors had come off at at half time with a twenty point lead and the game well and truly in the bag. Or so we thought.
In the best comeback I have seen in six years of coaching at the Amaechi Centre, Belle Vue caught us, passed us and held on for a fairly astonishing win.
We were gutted, shell-shocked and disappointed at throwing away an apparently unassailable lead. However, there are days when you have to give credit where it’s due and that day; Coach Kalu Redford and his team were pretty awesome in the second half.
But that was November, now it was January and defeat for either side meant no play-off place. Things didn’t start well with late news that Warriors’ ‘veteran’ and leading scorer, Andrew Gill was unfit to play came as very unwelcome news.
However, as if galvanized by Andrew’s absence, Warriors began strongly, got into a lead and never lost their grip. A real team effort ensured there was never any complacency this time and the Warriors ended up with a comfortable win. Two games to go and the play-offs were looking a little less distant than they had done at Christmas.”
Final Score – Belle Vue Blazers 31 – Warriors 39
Two down, two to go and great to see the Warriors in top form. Tune in tomorrow afternoon for a full report of match 3… another must win.
