Burly truckers wax off for charity
![]()
IF YOU hear any girly screams coming from the North Feltham Trading estate next week, chances are it will be these two burly truckers.
The pair are preparing for some painful preening as they sacrifice their prime body hair in a charity wax off.
"We've been asked whether we are going to go all the way but I think, speaking for the ladies who are going to be waxing us, we better keep it all above the belt," said John Byrne, a driver for Heathrow firm SDV Bernard.
John will be doing the deed his old friend and fellow trucker Joe Williams, from Feltham.
The 43-year-olds are doing the hair raising stunt to raise cash for the their colleagues who are competing in the London Mazda Triathlon on August 1.
They are hoping their squirms will drum up some sponsorship for the Teenage Cancer Care Trust.
"We thought the idea of two big ugly truckers doing what we like to call the ripper strip off would be something people would pay to see," explained John, a Southall resident who has worked at the airport for the past 20 years.

The wax will be done by staff at The Beauty Room in Longford, who have donated their time and materials free of charge.
The pair will be swapping the driving seat of a 40-tonne truck for the beautician's chair on April 29, in SDV Bernards' Feltham office.
If you would like to sponsor them, go to www.justgiving.com/sdvtriathlon, or just look for the two blokes with the baby soft skin.

They look like a couple of Pre-opp transexuals and not "Burly truckers".
What do they carry in their trucks, Mince pies?
