After being made redundant from Wimpeys around 1982-83 I became a bit like a fish out of water for a while as I had like so many people become stuck in a rut with what I thought was the security of a big company.

But I set off in earnest to find a new job which I found the very next day for a company called Alan Hunt Equipment who operated out of a portacabin in the Northam docks area of Southampton, I knew very little about this firm but they offered me a start on an O&K RH4 excavator rather ironically on a Wimpey site in Christchurch.

The machine was similar to the one in this old scan of an O&K sales brochure .
