Robsons 'Frae Carlisle

I remember a tale told to me by Willie Wuzzel from Abbeytown a Robson driver in the early 70s, a mate of his also a Robson driver got …romantically involved… with a girl who worked in the Jungle Cafe at Shap, when he told Willie he planned to marry her, Willie tried to put him off and told him that half of Robsons had been with her, his reply was thats ok, Robsons isn’t THAT big a firm :laughing: , I also heard that on a Sunday Willie spent his day in the pub, and on Sunday evening when he set off down the M6, his young boy sat on his knee and drove while Willie was asleep, and knocked him on the knee every time he needed a gear change. :laughing:
