When you say turf trigger what is it as turf to me is a length of grass rolled up to be re-laid , is it peat dug out by hand dried then used instead of wood on your fire   

Yes cut out off a bog and let dry then draw it home put it into shed to use in the house fire ..

Went 4 miles down the road to pick up this steel for my mates at Barking Forge then when back in my yard I am unloading it as I took on the job of rubbing it down and painting it with red oxide at this moment I don't now what they are for but I now were they are going so will find out , the hole lot weigh just over 6 ton each one is 9 meters long so as you can see I had to be carful on corners as it swung out a bit

Down in Suffolk today and for the next two days at Otley College running a telescopic forklift training course for them, back again next week for 3 days to do another one. Bit of travelling but nice place to work.

Just been boxing up and photographing a load of 1/32 models for one job lot to go on ebay. Last lot I don't mind getting rid of as the rest I want to keep.

Send me on photos off the job lot you have forsale ??

Looks like they closed down as far back as January from what I have seen on the web Sean

Snetterton closed for good at the end of February this year, it was an impressive place filled full of half finished displays there was always more staff than customers when I have been there. Don't know what happened to the stock? But the last time I was there all the UH and Britains had been replaced with puzzels.

Having some really good fun on these two, the red garrett has been on here before, the blue garrett is a new purchase from the Cheffins Keeley Collection sale yesterday, although I think the Scammell Explorer in the sale would have been even more fun to have :DIMG_20160515_171053.jpg
