"Get That On Your Half Track"
Well that’s what Warwick said on a cold February morning when most were wishing Keith a
“Happy Birthday”
So there we are stood on a cold frosty morning with 24 tonnes of Walker Bulldog tank as a new arrival, and some 3 hours earlier than expected.
Did I mention the engine does not run and the gearbox has been disconnected.
So there is NO steering or brakes
Now We have to manoeuvre a 10 &1/2 foot wide tank through a twelve foot doorway!

Oh and I have a video camera !!
So with a quick assessment from Banjo
(who promptly retired to the safety of my Land rover to finish his breakfast *and everyone else’s)
We set about moving this 24ton new arrival
with Keith’s 8 ton halftrack
Many Thanks To Keith Broome, Terry Till & Banjo
