I’m puzzled by your post. Was I where about 1967?
Who’s Jack Saunders? I’ve no idea.
I did drive tankers but not down at Jacks Hill.
I live in Glasgow.
More information, please.

Alex

All going well I will be there.Regards Larry.

It is a nice collection of many old vehicles lovingly restored… Free of charge.

And a cafe that produces good food, tea and coffee at the right price…
