OK all you clever dicks. Where does this licence plate come from? And more importantly (for an extra pie) what vehicle is it attached to? And click through here to find out the answers...and why Biglorryblog is doing a story on it in the first place!

Well the first bit is easy...the three legs is a dead giveaway. It's the Isle of Man. And the vehicle is an LDV panel van. So why am I blogging on this? because word reaches me that local Isle of Man brewers Bushy's Brewery doesn't have to call 'time' on its beer deliveries any more after purchasing this smart new MAXUS delivery van, supplied by local dealers Manx LDV.

The long wheelbase 3.5 tonne MAXUS van will play a crucial role at Bushy's Brewery based at Mount Murray, by helping to deliver its range of real ales to over 36 outlets across the island. Manx LDV supplied and liveried the van, which will deliver up to 30 casks every day. Thirsty work!

Bushy's have been brewing its own real ales, such as the unlikely named "Old Bushy's Tail", for the past 21 years, as well as supplying draught beer, cider and bottled varieties to a number of free houses and hotels across the island including its own managed outlets the Rovers Return and The Bay Hotel. Well I'll go to the foot of our stairs! Bushy's also runs the bars for the annual TT motorcycle race bars.

You know, all this blogging has given me a right good thirst. Oi! Betty love, mine's a large one!
