Bill Posted April 10, 2021 Report Share Posted April 10, 2021 A video clip appeared on Facebook the other day showing a huge barge being pushed and pulled into Latchford locks by two tugboats. On the barge there were two ginormous boxes and this sparked a whole raft of guesses as to just what was being transported. The best of these was that it was an Amazon delivery and that each crate contained one shoe. Made me laugh anyway. Bill 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Latchford Locks Posted April 10, 2021 Report Share Posted April 10, 2021 Is it something to do with the new turbo machine being built on Woolston weir ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted April 10, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2021 Close but not quite close enough as they say. Apparently two large 72 tonne bullshit pumps destined for Texas. Amazing what you can order on Amazon these days Bill 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill British technology must be well respected over the pond to get items like that sold in what is largely a protectionist nation where imports are concerned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
