I did a 22 mile charity walk the other week and discovered this old Bray. Everybody had a good laugh as I explained that one of the first things I learnt to drive, as a 12 year old, was a Bray just like this, I took a quick photo with my phone and had to get going. It had been an awful wet and windy walk over the Pennines, Jaynes mum (72) had got lost and I had to go looking for her, she and her new companions had found the route so all was well and we had a laugh.
I was amazed to find this Bray, we had ours around 1970 and kept it for a long long time, it was second hand to us so I don't know the age. I did notice the first letter of the reg' plate was missing - just like ours! When I looked at the photos of ours on Flickr, www.flickr.com/photos/70373000@N04/6430596517/in/photolis... after I had resprayed it around 1980, I realized that it was our old one . It was a couple of days after when I checked it out - I couldn't believe it - what a coincidence.
The exhaust had been modified and it was yellow again, albeit faded, I could have sworn that we had scrapped it after years loading salt but obviously not.
The Ford six cylinder had to have a new topend on a regular basis and we had torque convertor problems. It was an absolute pig to drive on the road with rear wheel steer that was just a nightmare - you zig-zagged everywhere.

This is a modified HO scale heavy duty Volvo wheel loader fork lift made by Cararama. It was originally a front end loader with a bucket. The bucket was removed and the fork mechanism from a container lift was added. The unit is detailed and weathered
The Loader Droid is a 4 armed robot that carries cargo to the spaceships. It has 98 brick pieces and it's part of my LL-5000 set.
Every human carries immense load over his head. Some are seen, some unseen. Some maybe photographed, some...you just have to understand. So whether it is seen or unseen; one has to survive with these overloads, willingly or unwillingly...

FastCat M9. Embarkation...
During high tide and swell is too much, getting in to the ship is very stiff and difficult for small cars with low ground clearance same also in San Isidro.
Taken during her 3pm departure from Matnog, Sorsogon.
With two loaders working to load six cars at a time, filling the train goes pretty quickly. When the 6 car cut is loaded the cars are staged on the loading dock tracks of the mill, including inside. The car mover then spots another set of cars on the loading track.
I've got an eight by six by eight foot tall concrete box where the shaft will go and for now I shovel the sand in it then from there shovel it out the access port.
Service members with the 407th Air Expeditionary Group load cargo containers onto a C-130 aircraft on Contingency Operating Base Adder Oct. 26. These aircraft have ferried the bulk of U.S. service members redeploying. The aircraft and crew are kept busy during the drawdown of forces in Iraq.
Thought of the mystery novel Standing Still by Kelly Simmons and knew right then the photo I wanted to scrap. My youngest daughter
Hannah is about to leave for college and as a mom, I really do want TIME to stand still.

I am using LOAD to help me jump start my scrapping of our recent trip to Playa de Carmen.
Journaling reads: And we are off! Our trip to Mexico is finally here! We have been saving all year for this trip.It is Evan's first flight ever.We left at 7:30 Winnipeg time and arrived in Cancun at 3:30.I was really nervous about the flight because of my ears but it wasn't too bad...We couldn't believe how good the food was but then again we hadn't eaten since 4:00 in the morning.It was interesting to see how long the frosted window took to thaw.The turquoise water was gorgeous as we landed in Cancun.We are really ready for warmer weather!
Bow lifted to rear roller, winch strap attached/locked and ready to winch. All this is done with one person with very little lifting involved. Winch allows safe loading of boat with no danger of boat falling off. For offloading, it also stops at this preset location as so you can walk to the rear of the boat with no danger of it falling. It will allow you to disconnect the strap, then manually lift the bow off the roller and settle to the ground.
Loading box lunches before departure, Detroit Light Guard Armory, July 13, 1960, a.m.
* * * * *
July 13, 1960, by Paul Magley
After arising about 5:30 AM, on Wednesday, sleeping bags and air-mattresses were quickly packed, Beginning at 6:30 AM, a breakfast of sausages, eggs, buns, potatoes, cupcakes, and milk was served.
At 7~30 AM, the last scout left the basement dining room as buses were loaded with gear and box lunches.
The contingent leaders called for the police escort and decided to alter the departure time to one slightly ahead of schedule.
After leaving the grounds of the Light Guard Armory, where we had remained overnight, our group proceeded along 8 mile road. Along the departure route we noticed the Detroit Artillery Armory and a large fiberglass factory at approximately
8: 15 AM.
A light rain in the morning had been sandwiched between a downpour during the night and heavy rainfall in the early afternoon, which cleared by 2:00 PM.
We went south on route 24. which for some distance is known as Telegraph Road, and passed over the small Rouge River three times.
The buses entered Dearborn, Michigan, at 8:50 AM, = by 10:00 AM, northwestern Ohio - at 10:10 AM began rolling on the Ohio Turnpike - 11:40 AM, passed double toll gates and entered Indiana on the Indiana Toll Road.
At 12~00 noon our bus met and passed a troop of scouts from Troy, New York, who were also going to the Jamboree.
When we stopped from 1:07 to 2:00 PM, at a service area in northwestern Indiana for a box lunch outside a restaurant called the Glass House (also a Cities Service Station) Mr, Kohnken, ASM" met Dave Mayer of Watervliet, New York, a leader of a
Troy, New York Jamboree bound troop. They had met at philmont Scout Ranch in 1959.
We also learned that this contingent from Troy prepared their own food enroute instead of having their meals catered along the way.
Somewhat later we were obliged to halt for a short while because one of the buses had minor engine difficulties, However, it was quickly fixed by our driver-mechanic.
At 3:45 PM, we observed a mass of transmission lines and electrical transformers that enveloped us for several minutes.
Illinois was then entered at 3:50, Lake Michigan was on our right side and, at 4:00 the Calumet Skyway Toll Bridge brought us into Chicago's variation of a traffic congestion problem.
We arrived at the Navy pier at 5:00 PM, Between 5:45 and 6:30 PM, we enjoyed an excellent dinner at one of Harvey's Restaurants in Union Railway Station.
After by-passing the rush hour, travellers waiting for trains, we filed by troops up to the mezzanine for an excellent dinner of fried chicken, peas, potatoes, rolls and butter, apple pie, and milk.
When Casey returned to the bus he was given a double round of cheering, A sign reading "Cannonball Casey at the Wheel" was attached to the front of the bus by the troop scribe.
On our sightseeing trip away from Union Station, we observed the outward evidence of a subway system, empty lots of junk" a fire department academy under construction, slums, railroad tracks and cars beyond count, piles of graphite, ship canals, the home of the Spiegel catalogue, Comiskey Park of the White Sox, long railroad underpasses, an annex of the University of Chicago, Chinatown, combined police and fire department buildings, and the Chicago Coliseum, (where the Republican Party will hold its 1960 convention) passed in an array of rapidly appearing attractions.
We saw the art institute, Grant Park" five story high layered parking lots, orchestral music hall, public library, Prudential Insurance Company Building, and the exquisitely modern Chicago Sun Times Building.
By the time the street lights were turned on we became slightly confused as to where we were. However, we continued on and saw the "highest church in the world" located in a tall office building.
Suddenly finding ourselves along the shores of Lake Michigan, we witnessed the fury of one of the Great Lakes. Unusually low
temperature and tall white breakers drove everyone off the beaches. Angry waves lashed against retaining walls causing spray to shoot several feet skyward.
From there we went on through Lincoln Park" past the Central Park Lake and the Chicago Zoo. The famous monument of Lincoln is also found in the aptly named "windy" city.
The Chicago Federal Court of Appeals had a perfect view of the gale swept shore line. Steve Horlitz and others almost lost their neckerchiefs as they hung from the open windows.
We returned to the Navy Pier at 9:00 PM, took a shower and retired at 10:15 PM.
During the night a frost was deposited on the grass outside.
Note: We didn't have to set our watches back one hour for Central Daylight Savings Time zone near Elkhart, Indiana» since we already had set our watches back for standard time in Detroit.
