Idiots at work - Shell TBM truck stuck again!!

Another Shell truck has got stuck.  It is again believed that the truck, which has Dutch registration plates, was delivering parts of the Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) for Shell. The truck is currently stuck at Briska, between Bangor and Bellacorick.  Yesterday, 2 of the trucks that previously attempted to deliver parts of the cutting head of the TBM to Shell's tunnelling compound, returned to Bellanaboy.  It is expected Shell will again attempt to move the TBM cutting head sections to Aughoose in the coming days.   The truck that is currently stuck is about 50 ft long and has "Convoi exceptionnel" on the front.  It's thought that no-one was injured in the incident.

Printed below is a self-explanatory email purportedly sent earlier today to Shell EP Ireland Chief Executive, Mr Michael Crothers (right) by Mr Neil Rooney, an OSSL associate.
