Hi i was reading about this company. I am from ireland. Would this company ran to ireland to a plastics factory in a town called clara in the midlands. Going by the pictures it was then. Late 80s early 90s if not before.

Yes they did run to a couple of destinations in the South in the days when they would wait up to three hours to cross the border at Newry.ŕ
One was a regular tanker job out of Runcorn to Clara which took three days to complete via the ‘spring busting’ potholed roads in those pre EU days.
The other destination they ran to was Balbriggan just up the coast from Dublin.
