Truck in the wars

We busted the housing on one of the brake actuators on the truck as a result of going through the mountains in Ethiopia. At 2800 metres high it isn't the place to lose your brakes. Fortunately we have George our fearless mechanic/driver who sorts everything out and looks after the truck. He earnt his beer that night.
