As we are all coming out of europe....................
Do we still have fishing rights to trawl for the sea scopium ?
I could make a fishing hook if I had a sketch of it,
I could also make a clonking iron to stun it after it's caught,
You could stun it with a Wallis and Stevens ash pan rake................. Probably be a bit flimsy ...............just like a Wallis engine.
A Fowler rake would do a better job , probably take two men to lift it though !
What about an Aveling ashpan rake ? Trouble is an Aveling driver is too busy throwing coal into his boiler to have any time to stun a scopium, ( Aveling and Porter, coal and water )........................( see what I did there...........it rhymes )
Tasker tractors....................... probably have an ash pan rake same size as a Mamod................too small.
Mclaren ash pan rake ? Anyone got the phone number of Baldwin crane hire ?
How about a Zettlemeyer ash pan rake ?..................YUK.............Dont even go there,
A Garrett ? same as a Wallis................
I know, let's use a Burrell ash pan rake to stun the scopium, It would be sleek, stylish, well designed, ergonomic ( if you know what that means ) , well painted , and well engineered, just like a Burrell engine,
If we needed to haul the scopium up the beach, we could have a Burrell in front to pull the load, and a Fowler on the back to make all the noise !!
PS, Chris Edmonds once told me If both a road loco and a 5 ton tractor run over your foot.............You'll find there is very little difference between them !!!!!
