Blimey, @kylefitzy , that is one helluva trip, during my heavy hauling days years ago in the UK, there were no private pilot companies, all escorts were done by the police and they hated it. All they wanted to do was get rid of us asap 'how fast can you go Drive' was the common question, and apart from unsuitable bridges, nobody gave a stuff about axle weights etc.. One time in Wales with 70 foots beams a copper took me at more than 60 along country roads. At last we turned a bend and there was a little old coal lorry plodding along on a straight stretch. 'Thank goodness for that' I breathed, 'he'll have to slow down now'. Not a bit of it, with blue lights flashing and siren blaring he pulled that driver off the road and on we went. I was very glad to reach my destination.
I hope you don't mind if I put your story and photo in the heavy haul thread of my forum here.

On some medications good rx is cheaper than thru my insurance. I pay the good RX price then submit the receipt to my insurance company to go towards my deductible. Have the pharmacy run both. I save $200 a lot be on one prescription for my daughwrdwells40, JohnBoy, cdavis188 and 1 other person Thank this.

It doesn't help that the UK is bringing in literally millions of immigrants who don't contribute. I doubt very much that the PM has to deal with the wait times. You truly do deserve what you vote for.

My son got the bright idea of not wearing a jacket today. I'm sure he was happy it was in the back seat, as I went straight back to the pole barn to catch some loose chickens. Just because you turned 18 doesn't all of a sudden make you smarter.

No, that's cost plus.motocross25 Thanks this.

You may be right, and I hold no torch for the UK and it's policies, but I believe that real immigrant numbers show that the UK is well behind Germany and also France, though I can't find numbers at the moment. Of course one of those immigrants to France, is me.

But it should be said that the vast majority of immigrants to the UK are fit young men, so hardly likely to affect the health system a great deal.Boardhauler Thanks this.
