ah man I feel for you 🙁
My parents divorced when i was 5, I dont really remember dad leaving or in fact any arguments prior to that.
Its never been something thats bothered me or my sister, I suppose when you’re young things like that dont really matter (more like you dont understand, dad was there one day and then he wasnt) I remember him wheeling things out of the garage, no one argued no one shouted no one cried.
I know that realistically my parents arent compatible, Which then leads me to the question that ive asked myself several million times “what if they stayed together”
I can honestly say with 100% conviction That I would not change anything, Im glad my parents separated when they did. Saved us from growing up where parents do nothing but argue and bitch. Im 100% sure that if they didnt separate when they did, it would have happened 6 months later, a year later, two years?
It may be ****ty mate, but there is a silver lining to every cloud, sometimes its impossible to see, but there is.
My dad is not only my dad but my best friend, I wouldnt have ever had that relationship with him if he had stayed with my mum
I dont think the front end of the tug is original mate, the more i look at it the more im beginning to think it has been added on later or as a repair?
When you compare the article i linked from flight global and the above picture of the tug at FAAM the only difference between the two, is the lack of headlights on the FAAM one.
I think a trip to FAAM is in order. I want our tug to look as original as possible! 🙂
😮 and according to the comments below the article Biggleswade IS a real place LOL.
It would’ve been nice if they could’ve got the photo in focus and the chap looked slightly happy about being there.
Was just about to say that, the comments below the story made me cry with laughter!!!

Looks like a shortened version of a DC7/7Q ilk tug.
It is similar to a type of FAA tug as others have said.
The Grille doesnt look quite right – but similar to the tractor/tug at Yeovilton as Pagen said…

thats got to be it, the rear end is exactly the same! looking at that and other photographs ive found show the grill and the flat piece its mounted to, to be wrong. this would also explain the large amount of rust on the front piece and lack of rust anywhere else on the truck???
She’d be so far behind me it wouldnt matter :diablo:

Cheers matey, even if it isnt Ex Raf we would like to find the correct paint scheme in which to paint her up, we were thinking about having her painted the same sea grey that WR963 is but I think Authentic all the way 🙂
Stratford is hardly north!

Seems that the ones on eagle had all wheel steering?
That said the chap from douglas seemed fairly sure that it was a tug from eagle? I cant see the RN using two different tugs
Hmmm that doesnt look like our tug at all 🙁 I was really hoping we had a HMS eagle tug there 🙁
