Yes - as I said above, I picked up my rear tyres from City Link and somehow manged to jam tem in the passenger side. had to lay them on top of each other. 2nd gear was not an option and door would barely close! I toyd with the idea of gear changing arm through the centre of one tyre but this could have got real messy. Think my second best was a boxed 14" TV. Any others?????? :)

24" wide screen TFT screen for my computer; the box was huge! made changing gear a bit awkward! ....piper exhaust was probably the next best.

Sadly no pics. The table was at night time (oh, and it was raining too, can't beat a 50 mile drive home in the rain with the roof off :D).

The mattress was over a lunch break as it needed to go to the local tip. Fortunately the wing supports are (as you'd hope) nice and sturdy so suitable for tying stuff on to (and the wing itself was useful to rest the back end of the mattress on). Did have some lift issues over 30mph though.
