Feeling a bit philosophical - I was on my way to rescue yet another trapped bird this morning about 4.30am (as you do) when I witnessed a fella in love with his job-a local 12 wheeler Swallow's crane bouncing thru the gears on Bathwick hill as the 50+ years young driver wore a massive grin a grown up kid who dreamed of being a crane driver as a wee fella We shared a thumbs up moment as we each recognised the other fella just loving what they do for a living hurrah! Now here I am in Milton Keynes having a quick brekky before meeting up with a bunch of fellow sweeps keen on advancing their knowledge - life is good
