something interesting the bbc have bought a container and fitted gps to it and are going to track it for a year to see were it goes and what it carries …bit sad i know but interesting still
China and back, China and back, China and back…
wait until the easten block drivers get hold of it and it will be on the move all of the time without their breaks (as per BBC program) 
That’ll put the license fee up again i suppose 
I wonder how long it will sit at the docks while the truck is there waiting for it!!!
well with bbc slapped all over it at least it wont get filled with any stolen plant and shifted out of site.
Won’t they be a peed off if it gets loaded with scrap and melted down on its first trip 
Be a bit more hilarious if it ends up in West Thurrock sitting on the pile of containers for a full year

Or they could of done it the easy way by going to (for example) ACL website and punch the box number in and it tells you 
be even more funny if it ends up at Pentalvers in soton and sold on as a storage shed… lol
if it comes in or out through liverpool docks.there wont be much tracking to do.it will sit…and sit…and sit…as well as the poor driver waiting to load it.
nevertheless…interesting.
i bookmarked the site.
be worth a look in every night when on the computer.talking to a guy from belfast who does container work.#it seems belfast container terminal is called
the bermuda triangle.
trucks and drivers go in and never seem to come out.

saw it on the news today,apparently they havent bought it,its just liveried in bbc colours,guess that will make it stand out for filming.
Ever since this started its been sat at Southampton docks by the looks of it!
Yep…its certainly a typical container
Alex
They said live on TV this morning that Its going by rail to Glasgow to be loaded with Scotch for China. Whats the chances of it getting to China?
Is it normal to send an EMPTY box from Hampshire to Scotland to load. 
Every Villian in the world now knows its got whiskey on
