Brian, if you look at the “Old A One Drivers” thread which by now is on page two or three of this forum then I think that you might find a couple of stories from some of their lads.
A One drivers did quite a bit of work to Yugo and Hungary in the early eighties, you might remember seeing their bright red motors as they often parked up at The Zagreb Hotel and The Hotel Wien in Budapest.
There was a short story by a Truck net member called ‘Dry Ginger’ on a trip that he did to Mostar on Page 9 of the thread which I think that you might find interesting.
Its taken me a few weeks to find and read that very interesting article mushroomman. Many thanks for pointing it out to me. I did try to copy and paste it on here as it was mainly concerned with Yugo but the ‘little grey cells’ refused to co-operate. Mostar was one of my favourite destinations but we always approached it from the north unlike the AI drivers who came up from the coast road to the south.
