That concrete mixer I bought new 25 years ago to build my garage. It has been used many times and has earned me many bottles of fine scotch whiskey. I doesn’t owe me a penny. Also an interesting fact is that when the main drum bearings broke up I replaced them with secondhand Rosengart mains left over from a rebuild. So French Austin Seven concrete mixer

It seems to be a French thing, certainly round here at least that every self respecting Cevenol has a C15 van and a cement mixer. I have had the mixer for about 18 years (it's an electric one 140L) and the C15 for about 10 so I'm fully integrated! I haven't managed to wear either of them out yet.Those bags are called here "big bags" as you surely know Reckless. No french for that! About Scotch I only drink here Armagnac or Cognac. When in Rome...
By the way Derek, there's no 'E' in Scotch, only Irish and Bourbon.
