Default Took my nephew to work today. What do you think... should i set him on?

Started him on a 4 tonne counter balance.
He mastered reverse very quickly......



This is him just waiting for an artic to pull up so he could load it..



I thought he was doing quite well so i gave him two drops in the 18 tonner. sent him round North Staffs area. He was back by 4 with a clean tacho.



Needless to say i love him to bits and am a very proud uncle

I think it's great how you are so proud, close and fond of your Nephew. However, he looks like he is more capable of the job than you.

Benni,

Are those boots approved? And where's his hi-vis?

No wonder the country is in the state it's in today... LOL


Our oldest got a spin in a tractor unit when he was three and LOVED it - major tears when he had to get out.
