Nice pics Nick. Watties are crsips are they not? The name is familiar to me and I am sure it was crisps or something we saw while we were out there. I don't suppose you know what the running gear on the bottom of those bins was do you mate? Some nice photo's there, all the kit is a new one on me I must say.

Watties = Heinz Watties ;) They are every thing caned mate, most famous, baked beans ;)

Interesting pics.  :)

How stable is that bin when you are tipping?  :)

Very , more stable than wheels, each track is around 500mm wide, and its the same width as duals, (around 3m) so realy stable

They really are excellent photo's Nick. Those night time ones are the best.

Cheers mate, i didnt think they were that good, i need  real digi cam for night pics i think  ;)

Cheers Henry
