Ah French roping with there copy dollies, consisted of a pigs ear tied into the rope and a loop to the rave and pulled down and you could not get the knots out, only one way was cut the little demons you were left with loads of short lengths of rope if you had to reload. And as for there sheets which usually consisted of a full tilt cover which weighed about 3cwt, how did we manage to lift the buggers leave alone make a decent job of covering the load, cheers Buzzer.

Todd, clearly your eyesight with old age failing . You never bothered to sheet a load that well [emoji58]
As correctly observed by other post, tyre being replaced cos I drove over some piling sticking up at Cocquelles site .
Les didn’t bill me for that as well as bent side guard with tauntliner in muddy puddle [emoji56][emoji4]
