A BUSINESSMAN called Willie has found fame on the internet after plastering a very rude sign on his enormous…crane.

The 41 year-old from North Berwick said: “I just did for a bit of banter and craic.

“I run a grounds work business and I had the slogan ‘Willie’s ma name and digging’s ma game’ and I just got this crane a week ago so I thought I put this on for the banter.

“Everybody seems to be loving it and so far we’ve only received one bad comment. It’s a joke nothing more about it.

“I only got the crane last week, and even the sign writer couldn’t believe he was putting on it.”

As well as the message on the cab, the phrase “Willie’s Erections” is repeated three times along the boom of the crane.

Ross tweeted the snaps along with the caption: “Passed this crane on the way home from work”
