I don’t think there are any local drivers on that firm if you know what I mean

must have been fun recovering that out of there… specially if the owner was stood watching…
“” try not to scratch it mate “”

I was coming out of Lymington yesterday and theres a 14ft 3in bridge and a driver had stopped the other side of it blocking the whole place up, he was running round letting the air out of the suspension on the trailer and unit, I still didnt think he’d have got under it, cant remember the company but it was a green unit and trailer from a company in Powys

Might need this fella there

The bridge wasn’t Manningtree, it was Lawford.10’ high.

what is the point of that manningtree one…why not just close the bridge off and use the level crossing■■?

Vans and cars can use it both ways.that level crossing is a slow one.
