Re: Today in pictures
Thanks for the Tiger photo shillelagh, it's a very unusual body, not one I have seen before but after trawling through my my many photographs I found one similar owned by Ribble. I wonder what the doors below the windscreen are for, the engine is under the floor so maybe it is an emergency exit, very strange. I will make enquiries.
I will probably go to the Bury Museum on the 7th or 8th September, I still have a few complimentary tickets from when June walked the guide dogs and I normally park at Rawtenstall and catch the train to Bury.
On the 4th August there is the Pennine run which usually attracts a lot of old lorries, cars and buses, one year there were over 80. They start at Birch services and go via Todmorden, Heben Bridge, Otley and finish at Harrogate.
The Sunday after The Long Haul Club, of which I am a member, will be hosting a gathering of about 30 old lorries at the Crofters on the A6 at Garstang.
Both events are free.
