Ehy but you can drive a truck at seventeen-eighteen now

Getting very rare these days, and I can’t remember the last time I saw such a thing, but I knew the UK farming members on here may just appreciate this. It may just stir a memory of happier times, when things like this helped the working day go so much smoother, and made the effort put in feel so much more worthwhile.
Sorry about the Volvo blocking it, but that blue sky just had to be pictured. Newark vintage show yesterday.

Gossip has it the heavy haul had to stop for two nag riders coming down and who refused to pull into any driveways for him

"As it’s a Thursday, I thought I’d dedicate this throwback to one of the nicest blokes I know. No surprise he pulled me out of a huge hole recently."

Pity Mike is leaving us in the new year, his company has outgrown our yard space unfortunately. His trucks are absolutely immaculate, a credit to him and his drivers.

Pity in a way but also a great achievement that his business is thriving and expanding in such a cut-throat industry
