To be defended from the Scottish side Chris,to ward off the Whiskey tasters 
.
Cheers Dave.

Give the Scots their Independance,I say,but build a wall similar to what the Israelis are building on the West Bank with those bloody great upside down T sections,then just have two Border checkpoints,Gretna and Berwick,no hard feelings just get it sorted !! Could have two UK wide referendums on the same day, 1) Scottish Independence 2) Exit the EU. Great !! Cheers Dennis.

hiya,
As I’ve often said Dave I never took pictures wouldn’t know how but the oldest motor I ever have driven was a 1939 Maudslay Mikado only three years younger than me a very rare eight legger and still pulling a trailer albeit only doing local at the time I drove it, I’d love to see a picture of one of those,that’s me, but our Larry is the man for ancient photo’s.

hiya,
Dave I know a few choice words derived from the Welsh language which might work if the “hosses” start acting up.
I always found a couple of clicks from the side of the mouth did the trick failing that a bit of whip worked wonders
on the stupid animals, would have manufactured a knotted rope in those days and gained experience for when I
moved onto motorised transport and the trailer boys came on the scene.
thanks harry long retired.
Well,you know what they say - “You can take a horse to water but a pencil must be lead”.

After that profound observation Chris, you will need to change your name to Phil Osipher.

I don’t think the Hoss would be much good for work if you used the knotted rope on it Harry.I think a couple of clicks and a few kind words of command would work better.Never had anything to do with trailer boys.I can remember when I was young my Dad and the other drivers at the firm he drove for had drivers mates who worked on the lorries full time with each driver.They phased those out in the mid 50’s around this way,just as the lorries were getting bigger and wages started to increase.They still expected the drivers to do the same amount of deliveries though.
Cheers Dave.
