Default another carrier in a hedge !

I was visiting my old army unit today and over a brew in the REME office my old Staff Sgt told me about a carrier laying in a hedge he passes on his jogging route, with the remains of the cover in tatters and not looking like it had moved in years. So i plide him with more chocolate biscuits and got the location out of him. SO off i go into the darkest Suffolk countryside in search of another carrier.

Well exactly where he said it was lay a T16, not quite in a hedge but looking a bit uncared for. it turned out to be a vehicle that belongs to a vehice collector i know from Suffolk and he just has it in storage at the farm. All i will say is "Tim if you read this its time you bought a new cover !!!"

Oh well it was worth the ride out, just have to follow up every story.
