I don't know what you call those but I assume that's a hole in it.

Anyway yesterday there was a Wickes lorry stopped at the end of Beddington lane with a

pot of white paint spilt everywhere.

Why place a plastic tub where it can fall over and make a huge mess ?

The cones off clean up caused a traffic jam on the way home .

Years ago I had just had a twenty foot container loaded, it weighed 26 tonne and my unit couldnt get the traction to slide the trailor, I know ill raise the rear suspension I though, bent over raising the suspension the rear airbag blew out, what a fking bang that was.eek I didnt hear the explosion, only the echo of it.
