Now Now Clive nothing wrong with a Lightweight on the cover of windscreen, got to keep us Post War guys happy :-D Ex-Lightweight Owner :whistle:

Sorry I did seam to put the wrong age for my trailer and now know its before 1960. Well all we can do is wait for the first one to be pulled over using a truck and trailer and let the others know what happened. I hope to have all my facts ready for when I get pulled and hopefully wont get some smart arse copper.

Well with 4000 posts Jack shoud not be in the HMVF Club House more like the HMVF Pent House.

:angel: How true that is. :angel: Now worried about sleeping at Salisbury, might have to have my son on guard duty during the night.

Now I am confused. So is my trailer classed as laden even if it is converted to living accomadation (like a caravan) or only when it carrys equipment etc. I believe my trailer is around 1968 but my lorry is 1958. Nothing is straight forward these days

Sorry to reactivate this painful moment Jack but I found this funny when I was reading it and thought it might give someone else a laught to. Excellent work Bridie. Sorry I have a sick sense of humor

Hi Dave, C1 - which covers "Vehicles between 3500kg and 7500kg with a trailer upto 750kg" so only covers a small trailer. C1+E - which covers "Vehicles between 3500kg and 7500kg with a trailer over 750kg combined weight not more than 12000kg. Now my C1+E has a code restriction on it "107" which then states "Not more than 8250kg" which will be the combined weight. So as long as my total weight vehicle and trailer do not exceed total weight 8250kg I am ok. My trailer weights 3400kg so I take it as long as my vehicle does not exceed 4850kg I am still within my licence entitlement. Please if anyone has anyother views please let me know.

Any update to the HMVF clothing Jack or Mark

Eventually there will be no toy guns and it will be back to the old Stick Guns for kids. Cant see my little one being very happy oppening his presents to see a stick inside.

Ugly MV god knows what the GMC was mated with then ( and no it wasn't a bedford )

I thought the picture of the jeep in the back looked tight christ knows how the drive got out, thats if he did.

I just looked at the calendar and its not the first day of spring till Wednesday 21st :pfrt:

This weekend the clocks go forward so will be a little lighter in the evenings - more time to do those MV jobs.

Something green or camo sounds good. There again I thought Jack would have had the HMVF Tee Shirt ready by then :whistle:

CB radios, SWR meters, mag mounts that brings back memories from when I was young sticking up aerials at my parents house - some of them very big and ugly, god knows how i got away with it. Regards the licence - Is it only people who have held a licence for over a certain period of time that dont now need one or has the licence been scrapped.

Its very suprising what a camo sheet can hide and it makes it look so much smaller on the drive.

Now getting worried about camping at salisbury just in case Tony starts wandering around at night :shake:

Better get that sorted Neil as no one likes a rattling around there bell housing - might need a trip to the doctors.

Thanks for taking the picture Clive, dam thats in a sorry state. Looks like the off side front is held together by a strip of metal and I thought some of my repairs where suspect. Never nice to see a Bedford in such a sorry condition.

Just goes to show that even the old boys can workout how to add pictures :whistle: well done Tony.

So no chance of sorting things out Paul, if you are that gutted its worth seeing whats gone wrong and seeing if you two can resolve it. Take care mate.

Jack's family day out - weird family those Beckett's.
