Milton, the English poet - As well you know it! Dostaf

John Milton was 'a scholarly man of letters' - not quite the same ones as Milton Jones.

'Atkinson holds a category C+E (formerly 'Class 1') lorry driving licence, gained in 1981, because lorries held a fascination for him, and to ensure employment as a young actor. He has also used this skill when filming comedy material.' (wiki)

Atkinson by name, Acting-un by nature.

An I like trucking link would be asking for trouble:

'The video from this song caused absolute outrage when it was first broadcast, because it featured footage of Princess Anne driving a large lorry, interspersed with hedgehogs being crushed under the wheels...

... The following apology was aired at the beginning of the following show:
"The BBC... would like to point out that the hedgehog used was in fact a stuffed hedgehog, and we feel we've probably exhibit less cruelty to hedgehogs per se than whoever it is who goes around stuffing them in the first place."
'

Wise to have no truck with a link and no link with a truck.

(Best to back out of jump-starting the banned wagon.)
