Did that Cargo belong to a certain Mr Thomas ND?
I doubt anybody else would have ran a contraption like that… 
Mr ND I have to take my hat off to you for admitting that, me personally would rather be seen getting out of a sheep than that “contraption” 

It was a shed. No way to dress it up. But I would have picked it over the Atki’s that briefly joined the circus…

Some years back - and by the way this a true story - some pressure group who wanted better roads in the county, did a test to demonstrate how tedious it was to get from Bristol to Poole.
So in Bristol they had an artic and yes, a bloke on a pushbike. Both had to go to Poole and they set off together.
The bloke on the tredder won.

Yeah I was empty and thought at the time I wouldn’t fancy this with much weight on!
If they are sending lorries that way there must some cases of them getting stuck. Like in the wet with weight on up that hill.
How did I ever manage with a 280 engine and a twin splitter gearbox ?
(I’m not saying it was easy mind…
