M6 lorry convoy for the fuel protest

Read on teletext this am about a lorry convoy coming up the M6 this am travelling from Lymm in Cheshire to Carnforth near Lancaster. We had hoped they would be going slowly but the police (and government no doubt) were onto the case - they travelled at 40 mph and were confined to the inner 2 lanes. It was all over too quickly and we wouldn't have known it was imminent but the tv van in the next road did give us a bit of a hint!!





Here come the police so the rest shouldn't be far behind.


















Bet she was cold on the top deck!













All over packing up time for the professional.





Homeward bound.





M'way returns to normal until of course the convoy returns this afternoon on the opposite side.
