Hi John,
Sad to hear of a decent lorry man gone RIP. A good mate of mine asked a V###o dealer for a quote for a new lorry last August,never received a quote or anything else. He now has a new Daf sat in his shed all paid for, no finance,all ready to roll in the spring. As he says there’s nothing wrong with the country, its the people who are the problem, half of them don’t want your business.
Bought a bag of Estima today £6 off a Herefordshire farmer, good value. 
Cheers Dave.
