Default Eric's new carrier

Here is my new carrier.
It is a Universal Mk III maybe. Serial number is T58540. The floor is covered in mud and leaf litter which has turned much of crumbling. It had been parked under a tree and collected all the rubbish. I sold my other english carrier to an MLUer.

Default Well Done!

Nice present Eric,

At least it will do better at your place in the shed than under a tree in the open.

You can always use the leaf litter on the garden.

Default New Carrier

The years under a tree at John Belfield's have taken their toll. So far I have taken 3 builders wheel barrows of rubbish out. Unfortunately, a lot of it is flakes of metal. In hindsight he should have either sold most years ago or put most under cover.
Interestingly, it is another mortar carrier, though I have seen a plain universal, as it has the box on the back wall. I have also seen an AOP here in Oz.
