I believe the 04 plate GCS Johnson unit caught fire on a job and was completely destroyed.

Cracking stuff there Oily, cheers mate!

Now, I’ve stumbled upon these…

That horse drawn car has given me an idea. If the Mayor of London bans diesels in the future we could have stables around the M25 to pull wagons to enable them to make their drops! Of course the Mayor would be able to pick up the “emissions” from the horses (at his cost!) to use on the roses in his parks but horses would get round a problem for hauliers… And the drops would probably take no longer either given the average speed of traffic in London!

What do you think?

This could be a new advert for Scanny…The new T-series…pulls like a train…

Cheers, Patrick

Does anybody know how this happened? I wonder what they told the insurance company.

If you look close enough, it seems that they’ve “fiddled about” with the chassis… maybe the welder’s to blame
