Morning Danne. Yes, the driver was working for ‘Skanska’ who were building the impressive and expensive ‘Conference Palace’ in Baghdad. He is among the group of drivers but maybe to far away for you to pick him out. Opposite the Conference Palace was the Al Rasheed Hotel. Now that was a work of art and building costs were astronomical. I think Skanska built that as well. If I remember rightly the company had there own lorry and drag driven by a young Swedish guy who on one trip let me drive his rig around the lorry park in Tartous while we were waiting for the ferry.
