Meanwhile in Leyland....

[Micrashed]

Whilst Westminster was full of nobs making sure Mrs T was sent off for a burning - we buried Tom Snape today in Leyland and traffic ground to a halt for the funeral courtage ....

There is actually a steam traction engine at the front of this but my bastard buggering phone camera took forever to "wake up"

[Micrashed]

Few more

Is that a Swanzee NH fire truck?

[Shep Shepherd]

Looks like a nice send-off.

Exceptionally cool procession - there's some amazing heavy iron machinery there.

 

I did a quick Google search and excuse my ignorance if I should know who Tom Snape is, but who was he?

 

Edit: don't worry, I found some info here: http://rvpt.org/MyBB/showthread.php?tid=1139&pid=3597

Just fantastic. thats how I want to be sent off. R.I.P

[Wilko220]

Great stuff. I'd be proud to have a funeral like that!

[AeroNautiCal]

That's the nicest funeral cortege I can recall seeing.

 

Thanks for posting this.

[outlaw118]

That is splendid.

When I go I want to be carted off to the crem in a Delboy "Robin Reliant".

And the bastard to be burnt with me. Public spirited, me.

[Partridge]

What a lovely idea for a send off.

[mrcitroen]

What a brilliant send off. Any old vehicle nut would be proud to have that lot as their final send off.

 

Beats the bland crap from the Co-Op.

 

I want my hearse to be a DS Safari, not 100% sure about the bus, but possibly a Midland Scottish Fleetline or Leopard, followed by random shrapnel.
