We had a lad who was a diabetic trapped in the back,when the fitter arrived from Royal mail he didn't mess about and crow barred the f==king heap open,the handle on the inside wouldn't work,he had the keys with him and they wouldn't work either,we had a spare set and they wouldn't work.Imagine if Moya had got locked in the back do you thing we would still have them on the fleet?
For we were soldiers once,and young
