My old Scania 113 At Felixstowe around about 1989

Dunno if this counts Mr 141 as its just outside Felixstowe Docks…My old 111 taken around 1986…I think I was waiting to lift an empty box off somewhere…the days before sliders had even been thought of and if you took those roundabouts a little to quick with a loaded 20 foot it was heart in mouth time :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
Happy Days :slight_smile:
