We ladies like a bit of rough, and April’s Skip Hunk is no exception. Introducing Danny Wood from Urban Skips in Manchester. We have to give special thanks to Danny, who stepped in at the last minute to take the place of the director who was too shy to appear in these hallowed pages. Maybe next time. In the meantime, let’s chat to Danny about pot-bellied pigs, his never ending devotion to his job and his unusual taste in women…

Hi Danny, how old are you?

24

And your starsign?

 Aries – the ram!

So you’re a bit outspoken, have a bit of a temper and independent? What’s your relationship status?

Married … with 6 kids.

Woah – you have your hands full! What do you do, job-wise?

JS driver and part time cleaner

What’s the best bit about your job?

Being part of a committed team to recycling

 What’s the worst part?

Going home

Mmm, we’re not too convinced about that answer. What do you like getting up to in your spare time?

Collecting pot-bellied pigs – I have a keen nose for a good one.

Who would be your ideal skip chick?

Deirdre off Corrie

It must be the glasses and those lovely chain belts she wears. What’s your favourite joke?

I phone the council and asked them if I could have a skip outside my house. They said that I could do what I want it’s my house.

Mmm, his taste in jokes is about as bad as his taste in women. Stuart – do you have any dirt you want to dish on Danny before we go?

Yeah! He once bought a motorbike helmet and decided to try it on at home in front of a full length mirror, the problem for Danny was that was all he was wearing when his mam came into his bedroom. Ooops!

 Oops indeed. And with that image of a naked Danny in mind, let’s move on… Thanks Danny!

We like a big, strong man – and they sure come in handy for when you need work doing round a skip yard. Unfortunately, it seems this skip hunk’s muscles are wasted in the office making sure all his customers are happy. Introducing March’s skip hunk – Tom Stansfield from Stockport – who combines strength, compassion and sportiness. Shame about his taste in jokes…

Hey Tom, how old are you?

21

Are you single or taken?

Single

Finally – a skip hunk with no strings attached! What do you do, job-wise?

I help out customers who order through us, making sure they’re happy. They can range from Mrs Jones down the road, to large corporations whom we have contracts with.

Best bit about your job?

Making the world a better place by way of absolutely epic customer service

Aw, that’s nice. Tell us your worst part bit?

Not being able to make EVERYONE happy

Oh dear, you can’t please everyone. What do you think about the landfill tax rise?

Well it was inevitable, we all knew that the rise was going to happen. I don’t think we can stop it through campaigns or protesting. We just have to ride it out, invest in better kit, and unfortunately pass on the charges to the customer.

Yeah, it’s a bitter pill to swallow though. What are your hobbies?

I used to play semi-professional basketball, but an injury ruled that out. I still play though and love working out in the gym, playing football, and I love eating

Who is your ideal Skip Chick?

Zooey Deschanel and/or Alison King (Carla Connor) from Coronation Street either would do J

Nice choices. We like Carla as well – until she opens her gob! Tell us your favourite joke…

Some bloke was throwing sweets at me today.

Most of them missed, but all of a sudden,

Wham!

That was rubbish Tom. But thanks for being March’s Skip Hunk anyway!
