Yes John.Shipped a few times and was seasick on the “Coco tin” Or Contentin a few times as well.Regards Charlie
My first ever trip to Spain in a non sleeper ERF pulling an Incotrans tilt
was via Truckline out of Poole in 1976 and I was ■■■■■■■■ myself.
I have to say though, that after surviving the hairy flight to Cherbourg and the nail biting
taxi ride the other side, I felt that I could conquer anything.
Did many trips on that route over the years and on a weekly basis when pulling
Interoute tilts for Mick Hayes RIP
Ps Buzzer…I paid a visit to Tracy Island today.(as Jimmer calls it )
Mappo if you had told me you were visiting Tracy Island I would have sent in some provisions,but I suspect you did get a cup of tea,cheers Buzzer.

Actually it is oat straw not so good for my horses but the cattle love it and eat a lot of it,the only problem is once you have opened a big round bale its really to much for the size of the pen but not easy to move once you remove the netting so I spread the whole bale,It is getting scarce down here now though and its a long way from harvest yet,cheers Buzzer
Didn’t we have a party in there a few years ago?

Yes we did Gazzer in fact that was the dining area when roast lamb and pork was on offer but we like to change the menu on a regular basis and there fore soon there will be beef on offer for a change,after all variety is the spice of life,cheers Buzzer.
Sorry to hear of your man flu I thought that might stop the new film " Balders and the Beanstick " hope you will be well enough to get them planted as I know you received the little parcel,quite amazing as I addressed it to Balders,does your postman know you by that name ?
cheerio for now Buzzer.
PS. Next time I will test him just put Balders France and see if it gets there.
Been looking through this thread again I think that F12 looks pretty stunning ,the twin headlight
ones always looked good.
Then I found these 2 beasts and well just cant get any better they are both stunning motors ! They would be worth a fortune today,i wonder if either survived the scrap heap ■■?
I actually prefer this colour scheme to the blue and white !

They never are once they have left our ownership,the only way to get rid of that writing is a respray but some people aint that fussed about the general apearance, cheers Buzzer.
To be honest Buzzer, if i remember rightly, the unit pulling it was’nt much better.
