And that is what happens when you fail to put down the side riggers - and with a fully extended boom as well :doh: Still nothing like a good recovery to put things to rights... and that was nothing like a good recovery. Not often you see 3 cranes on one small street - the RSPB should be delighted (don't tell the BBC, they'll be starting crane watch before you know it)!

Looks like the side riggers are out :dunno:

Maybe not enough in the confines of the street.

Seems like the crane people really know their stuff :lol:

He probably ate all the chocolates before the lift
