Nice one Apprentii , I love those voice over accents from yesteryear too.
I started work at a place that made the forgiings & the pressworks & the cold extrusions for the motor industry , mainly the Austin which was identical to Morris at the time , just badged up as Austin , Morris , Riley , Wolesley & Joseph Lucas Electric
The forgings went by narrowboat ...believe it or not ... along the Birmingham /Fazeley Canal to Hardy Spicer for machining etc. We used to go with them sometimes on the pretext of checking the starter motor & dynamo on the tug .
I have a picture of myself sitting on the tug somewhere ....whether I embarrass myself by posting it is another matter .
The narrowboat carried about a million times the weight of a lorry.
