The complex of Newgrange was originally built between c. 3100 and 2900 BC,[2] meaning that it's aproximately 5,000 years old. According to Carbon-14 dates,[3] it is more than 500 years older than the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, and predates Stonehenge by about 1,000 years.

Nice work so far I'm looking forward to seeing it all livered up. Seen one of their cranes today at the Civil Eng in NUIG today working on reinforcement cage construction.

You make it look so easy Cool Cool Now just take one of your blue Actros's and some nitromores and repaint it in red Teeth Teeth

I'll be talking to you about the decals in the near future, cost, how to order them and sizes in the near future Cool

I have some pictures of Crane Hires AC1600 that I'll post later they are prints so got to scan them in first.
