How to straighten a bent truck ...

So I was on the DFDS ferry from Ijmuiden to Newcastle when the stevadors were loading a truck ... unfortunately they turned the corner too fast and the trailer twisted ...


The driver got out to have a look ... would you stand there ? I wouldn't ...


So they called a trusty forklift to help out ...


And in no time the trailer was straight again ! (although I hope I am not following it on the road!)

Goldwing from the Civil War ???

Cycling through Amsterdam I came across this seriously customised Honda Goldwing ... I managed to get a few quick shots with the camera phone as I am sure the owner would have been very scary ;-)

Asleep at the tramstop

So it is Queen's Day in Amsterdam and i go out for a walk after recovering from the famous Queen's night partying ... This old stoner wasn't in such a good state and had to fall asleep at the tramstop in the Westermarkt...
