Hi,

One of the knackers in South Wales drove a high-sided LWB Transit open top, not "sheeted". Not nice for the kids in the double-decker school buses to peer down into ... especially if it was their horse. Having "Doctor Death" painted on the front didn't impress me either.

After my first, I always asked the knacker to pull them in by the hind legs. I found it upsetting to watch my "baby's" head interfere with the varies obstructions, as she was dragged on board, by her front feet. OK, it probably didn't bother her.

Hi,

Back on subject ....

I don't know how it works with VED Exempt vehicles, but I have offered to return the "valuable" registration to the Hoarder, once the vehicle was permitted to donate it.

An attractive ploy, but my offer was not accepted.
