Great Wyrley Carnival

Post #1 by SRB » Sun Jun 29, 2008 11:23 am

Well, it was my (old) village carnival on Saturday, we (that is Finning) put a couple of machines into the parade and did a bit of a dnacing digger type affair. So with the choice of all the machines on our yard at my disposal, went for the 14M (mainly due to some of the narrow roads to be negociated), one of our customers, Craig Poole, donated his 442E backhoe to the cause.
Why is it when ever you take something unusal onto the road, it becomes a magnet for people to aim at you and pull out in front of you when your trying not to destroy everything in your path???

Turned plenty of heads and managed not to hit anything, bonus!

Few snaps of the day, courtousy of Mr Holden, click on pic to make it biggerer.

PS: Holger, kan we have a spel checkerer plsea?!?!
