Only fools and horses.

A very brief blog to prove its not all play.....

Tom picked up my camera while I was working on one of the Jet Launch trailers today and captured the moment I did some actual work :-) Removing the axles and bearings to check for corrosion and wear... there was very little of either so re-greased and re-installed...
