Charles Footman with a load of straw parked up on Bridgend ind est on the old creamery site0

Wonder if hes dropped the trailer to do a swapover or in case someone decides to try and ignite the load whilst hes asleep.
Neil.

Hi Neil like you said dropped the unit off the trailer just incase someone tried to set the load alight when he was asleep, it was raining when the photo was taken, old school transport firm aswell plenty of flat’s, wag’s and drags and ropeing and sheeting

hiya,
What a beauty leave her as she is, just anti detioriation treatment
to make sure she remains as is forever anything else would be a
crying shame was I younger that is the type of motor i would want
just like that for the circuit bet she gets as many “visitors” as any
of the “fancies” on show and would love a sneaky little drive in her.
thanks harry, long retired.
