    love Toms answer to the bird nest - did miss out though, could make some birds nest soup with that YUK!
    Ash, if your half interested we have loads of them master brake cylinders up for grabs
    great work again - you got that JCB nailed mate, isn't it a shame there is no hook up at the front, now that make life too easy

    I've been watching tanks a lot for a number of years now and must say I'm really enjoying the work your showing on the servicing of the tanks getting them in working order well done, oh nice bit of driving of the fork lift Ashley 👍

      We muddle our way through somehow 😂, and it’s a breeze in the new loadalls, plenty of space

    How did you get hold of a Challenger 1 MBT?

      They sold off a few a few years ago, minus the Chobham armour. There is another preserved example in private hands.

      @@fredmargerum1486 haha seen that, i believe there was a bit of a story behind that one, something to do with it being cast as it was a Vicker prototype (not sure) i think the main chassis was sold off first and the turret came later, might have been a Mk 1 for training and then fitted - somehow the Army were a little amused at something like this being in private hands
      similar story to an ex SAS long range Landy a friend had, in fact that was auctioned off as a smashed up high capacity 110/127 (i forget) and got a full rebuild, still on the circuit somewhere
      i do love a good yarn, but sometimes they get a little twisted in places
