"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

Just as a note,

I would like to Thank ALL those Who helped,

And wish Keith a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY
