Then another one, and another . . 7 in all !
Probably delivering stuff to FEMA camps in preparation for the inevitable "incident". Maybe like this lorry delivering a load of plastic body coffins in the US:

Oph, what a 'orrible thought.

None of these had anything on the back, just empty platforms.
There was just the driver plus another bloke in the cab, and I could see their khaki uniforms as they rumbled past.

Re: What's going on?

Are you near Corby or Northampton itself?

Were these vehicles heading to or from these directions?

I am nearer North'pton than Corby, but this convoy was on the A509 heading towards the A14, it's the Wellingborough - Kettering road. Why do you ask?

A police helicopter was circling round and round the day before this as well. Probably nothing to do with it though.

Hi

Realist, we do not have any FEMA Camps in the UK.
