Last one from the showmans wagons parked at Hereford,anyone for a hot dog :question: :laughing: .

Don’t talk to me about “anyone for a hot dog”, I came back from St Albans yesterday (4.5ton on a 6wheeler ffs) and loaded at Ardley pit, realising as I’d left that I only had about 8mins driving left. I was forced to stop in the layby at Middleton Stoney that has a reputation for “George Michael moments” :open_mouth: Just getting to sleep and 2 of our wagons come past peeing themselves at my choice of break location :laughing:

Hello Sailor!!! Shut that Tailboard!! Oo Er!!!
