Looking at Andy's photos earlier ... and the 'cherry picker' prompted me to post this view from Norwich a few evenings ago !

De Icing time again ...
And talking of cherry pickers reminded me of this scan from my past (yes it should be in the history channel) In the early years of my apprenticeship I was given this polaroid by a press photographer ! 1967 or 1968 at Leeds Bradford servicing the apron floodlights ... The reason the press were there was this was the first use in the UK of the highest reaching 'Simon Hoist' as they were called in those days ... related to the 'Simon Snorkel' used by the fire brigade ... I'm the one without a cap ! Look at those BKS and Cambrian Viscounts ...
