i was on for noels at the time,I remember the work bags being under the stairs, the waiting about for the trailers to clear customs which could be in the middle of the night, the very helpful spanner man that looked after the trailers from his van (I had to use him a few times as the electrics on the berliet were not the best), the lost trailers that were down the triangle and trying to wash the security guard with the water off the trailers, washing the trailers plus a few quid to get the unit done at the bus depot by the lido, the mad crane driver at stocksbridge steel plant Sheffield that dropped some red hot billets that bounced off the side of the trailer and set fire to the wooden chock store, the Chinese takeaway there that did lovely fish and chips (I could not eat the foreign stuff but love Chinese food now) how the shunters could back the trailers so the swinging under run bar went over the low Armco barriers, then you were going nowhere, the paper reels topped just down one side so the trailer tried to turn over on the first bend, but alas not many people, oh and whilst loaded and parked at shefield in the snow on a hill the berliet did not have spring brakes so as the air drained away the brakes came off hearing the creaking and groaning as i slowly trundeld down the hill out of bed in only me skidies grabbed a big chock that was wedged between the back edge of the fuel tank and the chassis and jammed it under back wheel, after that it was a permanent thing with added rope so as to reverse up a little and yank it out whilst leaning out of the window, no time for walk round checks in the morning got to get on,
