Firstly Ron, it’s great to have the usual intro music back. Even though the trailer AND it’s content’s looked ready for the scrapyard, you still treated it with care and consideration. There were however a number of times when it looked as if disaster was just around the corner. Keep safe and very best wishes to you and yours from the UK.

@Rebecca Daugherty I'm so sorry for your loss Rebecca. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers. I lost my mom back in 2008. Not a day passes that I don't feel her connection from the other side. Be it within something that someone says. A song. Or even a task at hand. Always know, even though she has crossed that bridge of life. The connection and bond that you two have. Will never cease. I was devastated. My mother was, oddly like a daughter to me. I was my mother's keeper as well as my brothers. I chose that role it's okay. And she told the family the one that's going to be the most devastated will be my daughter. Boy she nailed that. Well she nails practically everything. Haha little inside joke. My mother had a huge run in with one of those automatic nail guns. Three hospital trips in one day. Hahaha God I miss her so much. I'm so sorry for your loss. Much love to you and yours.

Yea its more weight but just like the plastic head light lens that fog out. Changed up for safety reasons but hay got to see at night more important right. PS. Off Bug Spray on fogged plastic headlights and wipe with a soft cloth Yea watch how it eats it .never spray on my skin again just clothing. I use those light bug quills < spelling ?

I drove lorry mounted cranes in London and the places the hirer wanted us to set were often back filled areas without proper compaction. The areas in the east of London were heavily bombed in WWII, cellars would be quickly back filled with rubble at best. On one site as I took the weight of a precast panel, an outrigger burst through into a cellar. Luckily it was not a hydraulic driven crane and I was able to stop hoisting and not apply the foot brake, this instantly dropped the hoist hook and I was able to swing the boom to balance the rig. I then needed to go buy some new jeans. Liked the way you stayed clear from going under the trailer as much as possible, maybe keep the remote closer to hand would be a good idea as you work alone. Stay safe and thanks for posting.
