This Easter, the Forkliftaction.com team hid two Easter eggs in its website and promised a mini forklift to a lucky visitor who could locate them.

The two eggs bearing photos of forklifts were hidden in our Events Calendar. The event was Easter and the venue? Home of everyone who believes in the Easter Bunny.

David Leslie from FB Chain Ltd , England, is the winner of an orange-coloured remote-controlled forklift.

Rodger Lamb, the competition's organiser, says there were lots of entries for the Easter special.

"I asked the 'Easter Bunny' to put his paws on the keyboard and randomly select two letters and the entrant whose first name and family name had those two letters would win.

"The Bunny chose 'D' and 'L'."

Runners-up who deserve a mention are:
Joe Dabrowolski from Superior Fabrication, US; Bruce Bradley from Nissan Forklift, US; Peter MacLeod from Quartz Publishing & Exhibitions, UK; Randy Asbill from MH Equipment, US; David Clausen from ARPAC Storage Systems, Canada.
