You are phenomenally productive. I suspect that you are now the sum total of the UK's finished AFV production.
That looks like a lot of boxes on the rack in the background!

Hello Chaps

Thank you for your comments. I dont crate these up myself. I send them to a Shipping company about 2 mile away and they do the crating and shipping. All i do is drop it off and put it on a pallet. They do cause a stir when i turn up with these beasts. The whole production stops to take a look.
