I shall have to get out that way again if I get the chance, when I lived in Earlsdon I was riding round that area regularly, now I'm in Holbrooks I tend to ride north of the city a lot.

Five ton drop forge, formerly of Firth Brown Co, Sheffield.
After returning from the WWII my dad worked on one of these at Firth Brown for the remainder of his working life, until being made redundant (& taking early retirement) at age 63 in the late 70s. He was a 'Cod' - see panel below.
Unsurprisingly, he had hearing problems!

Two panniers full?

You'd be unlikely to get a close pass on the way home. ^_^
