I was stood there with TD when Mark prized the crate open with the crow bar, rushing to get the powerheads on the boat, and down the lake.
Trouble was, Smilin Jack, had overnighted a crate that Pascoe had sent out to them the week before, containing three, totaly destroyed 2.5's Marks face was a picture!

Reckon someone got a right bollocking over that!

What a feckin great waste of money! (imagine the cost & aggro involved in such a last minute overnight freight job!)
I,m think im right in saying the box,s said Concorde air freight on the side.
