Shaun's carrier is going to need a name ( or a nickname )
What can we come up with for a Carrier that went from grave to cradle in exactly twelve months? Lazarus would be a bit downbeat - who has something better? Solstice maybe, since it started and finished on the winter Solstice? ![]()

The morning started with Rick traveling 4 hours to assist with the roll out ( thanks Rick good effort !!) well a year to the day and the old wagon flew ! The first trip went ok, then a few adjustments later and another run and goes very well, we covered just over 2 miles, no over heating or major leaks so all is well. I think the video says it all so enjoy ! sorry for the shakey video ( to much excitment for all concerned ). By the way im the good looking one in the green wooly hat - Rick has the blue one ! Both Ex REME hence the sign on the front of the carrier .
Yes Gordon a name is needed , something light and fluffy like all good British AFVs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwo5u...eH9hC9pAEyQC9q http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Az6ZL...bghkLHexsheiNr http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tbbas...AeCegR5vzCm7Vb http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0j-W...9hPLw9rP1-t84Z http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1KJF...UuupPl4W1T0LkM
