Mitchel Cotts from Kings Lynn was another tanker company from years ago, I think they just hauled foodstuff products.

Jack, Mitchell Cotts moved granule sugar from the old sugar beet refinery at Saddlebow Kings Lynn then LEX had taken over contract about 1990. Pointers Tankers were big in Kings Lynn 1950s onwards.

Hi Kev,I didn’t know that.When I was a lad growing up in the small village of Walcott near Billinghay,Lincs there was a driver called John Pell who drove for them.He often used to back down the street in his A series ERF with a tanker trailer on,get his flask filled at home and off he went again…I always thought it was liquids he hauled in the tanker.
