I pulled my low loader in the local 'Over Carnival' today... just one picture to share as we ran out of time to make any more  :-[

Mavis was also in it... but I didn't take any pictures  :-[  so was one of my 7.5t trucks in actual fact... again no pictures  :-[

Needless to say... Hattie won  :P  ... much to the annoyance of some of the others.. village life gets a little competitive at times  :D :D :D :D  ... We won last year as well... I'm thinking about having it written on the bonnet  ::):D :D :D

Well done on the win Mark. I see you are diversifying again....kangaroo burgers :-\ :-\

:D :D  well I wouldn't put it past them mate....

I must say I do enjoy driving in the carnival... although you do have to have your whits about you with all those mums and kids walking besides you... even on the tight bends  :of:-[

Thanks for the comments as usual everyone  :-*

What can I say...

Guilty as charged.. For both charges  :-[:-[

I was hoping for 'Super-Woman's skirt to catch the wind as well while she walked in front of me  ;D

Alas.. Just not windy enough.. Next year I'll have a front mounted fan I reckon

It's the same for Over mate.... I had 3 vehicles in it... I think there was only about 2 more.. possibly 3  :'(  .. such as shame as the look on the kiddies faces told me they were having a lot of fun... and that's what it's all about in my book.

Looking good my Lord.

No pictues of Mavis - shame on you!

Couldn't you have squeezed Penny in as well?

Thanks Kev... I did think about using Penny in place of Mavis... but I wasn't sure of the weather and I was 'cabbed' in Hattie... I thought my mate may think I was taking the preverbial if I gave him a cabless machine to use  :):-[:D :D

Marcus..... when tractors go to 80k perhaps... for now... I think it's too far - unless Tris or PDC want to pick my up on a Noteboom  :P
