turbo22 Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Where abouts are you picking it up from gav? Boston can be a right pain at times. Was on the pavement yesterday so the R A F bomb squad could get past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav836 Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Will be picking it up from Sibsey Northlands so not too far the other side of Boston Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbo22 Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 No real choice then. All of our drivers has a dispensation letter with them which allows us on the road with upto 3.5m without having to notify first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 well Gav..... if you need an escort through Boston let me know.. I'll come up in Mrs F's Landy to see you through Boston Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav836 Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Cheers mate but I think I'll have to make the boss come up and escort me back even if it is a bit pointless on the rest of the A16, A17, A47 and the A148, all are nice and wide. I'm not risking points on my licence for anyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leakeyvale Posted January 25, 2010 Author Share Posted January 25, 2010 Getting my holiday plans finalised by booking the kennels for the dog. I mentioned I still have to make arrangements for the tortoise and guess what? They said if I the vet will not "kennel" him (the vet who usually does this is leaving) they would make arrangements to look after him too!
