Oh dear...

Please tell us the party responsible was caught.

 

A cranking handle

Just what you need for an old bus

 

I guess SD's talent is very specific: I mean, the FOD is not made of
celery....

 

'Kin'ell!

 

Good grief, that bike is very clean.

 

[dodger wing problem]

I trust the dear chap and Linda (was she going?) are both OK?

I know you'll all be full of nosh and pissed by now but an update would
be appreciated at a convenient time.

 

Everyone's fine. And pissed.

 

See my posting. Cranking handle to lower trailer landing legs.

 

They are usually a bit bigger:

That looks like a special something for something special.
Anybody notice what sort of lorry it was?

 

Oh my dear god. Thank the lord no children were involved. Isn't it about
time somebody made a law about this sort of thing?

 

Seems fine, it's buggered the plastic and knocked the headlight
adjusting motor off and into the recess of the fairing. I just missed
the happening different lane at the Peage so I exited a few seconds
before SD.

 

That big bit is the landing leg itself, you mong But yeah, I don't
think it is a cranking handle now. A special something, as you said.

 

I reckon it's a handle used to roll the cover open and shut on a bulk
trailer (spuds etc) like this one

You can just see the handle sticking out of its holder, top/middle, in the
picture.

 

That looks just like it, yes.

 

Imagine that through the visor. <shudder> I hope the truck driver got a
good kicking.

Yeah, because that's the answer to everything.

 

That, and having a bald head and beard. **** yeah!

 

Not everything but it might make the fucker stop next time instead of
scarpering as was the case here

I doubt the driver knew anything about it, so hardly scarpering, imo.

 

Nah from what SD said he stopped, got out of the cab then back in &
fucked off, so he knew something had happened if not what.
