Well a swamp is usually drained but it might be a shock as to how many TN members will be found in the bottom !

I’m nowt but a lad compared to you Dave ! So what is it like becoming a miserable 'owd git ? Anne reckons I’m one already but I tell her I’m not 'cause I’ve a few more years to go before I’m as old as some of my mates on TN ! Cheers Dennis PS and remember Dave only the good die young so you have plenty good years in fron’t of you yet !

Tidy but marks deducted by Dennis for roping over the fly sheet
I like the look of the Big J because the driver has obviously taken pride in his unit ! But the S & R is ■■■■■ and if a BTS Shunter had done that he would have prematurely curtailed his future employment prospects at BTS !

Well Buzzer that load of newsprint 3 high would be totally out of order in todays H & S world ! As it would be now loaded “end on” and split between 2 eight wheelers so so much for modern day economics ! The old Bowater and Reed Lads will be turning in their graves as three high "on the roll " never killed anybody ! Cheers Dennis.

Trust you and yours are fettling well too!

Buzzer[/quot the Gardnere]. Nice shot of a nice motor, But I cant understand why it has a Gardner 120 engine, I would have thought it would have been a 150 LX At least, 1971 The Gardner 120 was a up rated 112,

It actually has the Gardner 100 ( 5 LW) Larry ! It is the lightweight “tapered chassis model” and I recall Gordon Plant of North Rode ran quite a number in the late 60’s/into the 70’s and ERF offered the Perkins 6:354 engine in this chassis as I remember a haulier from Milnthorpe had one and it could manage an 11 ton payload on pallets !
