Part of the formation of the truck parade

EDIT; Friday 29th @ 08:45
At a couple of the softer parts of the ground, the FAUN was creating a 'pressure-wave', as it pushed the soil ahead of itself, I've seen that effect before in the clay-soil of a quarry, from 8x4 tippers

There used to be one, at a caravan storage site, along the A639 'Barnsdale Road', the road from Pontefract - Barnsdale Bar (jct 39/A1), I don't know if it's still there

Sorry, for dragging this one up. but I was recently told (when mentioning these) that it's the same family that owns the caravan storage site, as these stables
Thus, they are the same vehicles

A belated 'Happy Convoy Day' to you all
You've got to think of the lyrics to the (far superior) movie introduction, rather than the appalling 7" single re-write
