Just a few pics of loads and things that got in my way.
Tipping JCB France
JCB Loadalls are a bit of a tight fit.
This one was on my truck 10 minutes earlier.
Bog Rolls 
Where is this road?
BOBCATS
The shunter struggles a bit in a tight space. Universal Tug can be used to move semi trailers and demountable boxes.
My sat nav brought me to the main railway line in Coventry.
Some of us would have killed to get a new TK.
You can never have enough straps.

The brakes were on, what more do you want?

[The brakes were on, what more do you want?]
Brakes would only stop it going forward & backwards,what about it coming through the side, as its only a curtain sider.
How about sorry officer my load came through the curtain & landed on that car , but at least the brakes where on.
If i where to drive a low loader arround with any plant on & no chains, how long do you think the load would stay on.â– â– .
I can see he used straps.
Speaking of chains, I think yours is being yanked…
Very good wheelnut. You don’t get to have a go of the JCB’s yourself?

The JCB was secured with 4 x 5 tonne straps, we are not allowed to chain them as we may scratch the paintwork and loading gravel doesnt.
I believe you were questioning whether I bothered to fasten them on. Well I do, and if you read any of my posts on this emotive subject you will find that I do not condone using pvc as a load restraint
In this case the personal access cage had 2 straps over it while the JCB Loadall was strapped over the tyres using a type of barrelhitch. In this depot at 8am there were already 5 trucks waiting for one ramp so I had opened both curtains and removed the straps before getting onto the access ramp

It does happen but in that particular case I was at the JCB headquarters in Paris and they were setting up an open weekend for customers. The small loader on the back was a replacement because of shoddy paintwork.
In Yorkshire we still point at aeroplanes.
I suppose a lot of our work is returning used packaging to Europe, and sometimes they even give you a few bonus pallets. 
Sign waiting for update maybe? 
The poor relations. Narrow cabbed TGA.
Stack from the roundabout in Coquelles. 
If we must have caravans, I want that one.
Just looks wrong, no straps, no nets, just gravity.
Some good piccies there mate!
Good pictures there Wheel Nut, thanks for posting 
I love to watch other people work.
Nice low centre of gravity load.
Grockle Transport. How the other half travel abroad.
Its still a Scania though.
British Steel (France)
AS Taylor. Hawk Kawasaki.
Difficult loads to strap.
What is this?

I know what you mean but that was one of Canutes finest. He seemed to put a lot of faith in shrinkwrap and plastic banding
