Will take one of mine tomorrow and put it up. In the mean time i am off down to crawley and haywoods heath monday. So keep your eyes out for a white M.A.N tga with a welsh flag in the front window, not sure which trailer i will have on the back so it could be a red flatbed or a blue tautliner or a white and green tautliner with j&j murdock wrote on it.

I learnt to drive a truck in something like this while working for SLH. They wouldnt let me have the trailer though, I was only allowed to move the tractor units around from depot to depot :(

I think this might be the actual truck looking at the state of it.

One day I will get to join you in the big boys lorries.

It is only a dream at the moment to have ago in one of those lorries. One day it will happen but it will be bleedin expensive to get there though  :cry:

If anyone has some private land and wouldnt mind giving me a go or just a ride I will be happy with that too. I have passed my DVLA towing test behind 3.5tonne vans and my minibus test. :D
