Clearly this is the only forum that can answer my strange query! Each morning I drive from Bletchley to Banbury via the a421 and a422. Every day recently without fail I see articulated lorries carrying hundreds of orange trays, like those you might get strawberries or vegetables in at a green grocers. Does anyone know what they are carrying? It's driving me a bit crazy. There are no company names on the lorries

Chickens, they collect the chickens country wide and take them to the Factory in Brackley, Faccenda.

You wouldn't believe the machinery they have. The chickens are hooked up by the feet and this machine kills them plucks and slices them in about 30 seconds. If they want skinless cuts they use compressed air to blow the skin off.

I reckon you are right tcobb.
Blooming small chickens though, the trays are only about six inches high!
Just off for a zinger burger. See you all in a minute
