Rig spotting???19 Aug 2019 17:10
Last Friday, when on my way to Hull for a steam and sauna, from out of a layby came a police car followed by a lorry with a long trailer going in the opposite direction towards Brid(lington). The trailers content, as far as I could see as it took me by surprise, were a grey kind of structure with a lot of red 'rubber?' pipes. It may have been a rig but never having seen one I cannot confirm. However the most interesting point was that on the other side of the road blocking off the traffic whilst the police car and the lorry and trailer came out, was another police car, which I assume was to act as rearmost protection. I therefore assumed, with the police protection and heading north to Brid, it was the rig. I decided against posting over the weekend as, although I do not believe what is written on this BB makes any difference to the SP, I opted against taking the chance. IF my sighting is correct then it's arrival at HH is likely to be later rather than sooner.
Alternatively it could have been something for SXX up at Whitby. GLA.
