Talking to Rolly the other day and he was telling me Marty Ruffle had bought W Sibleys transport so hes still in the game, but most of the owner drivers from your era have knocked it on the head, very few of the bigger pompey hauliers exist anymore and as for o/ds there more or less extinct,im only still going coz i figured years ago that theres no money in artics round here, 1 man 1 truck with a crane will always earn a living…hopefully!
I remember a flat with a crane on it owned by Tony the rat in gosport now thats going back a few!!!
