My Son Nigel drivers this MAN For Adams, He reckons its a good bit of gear, Regards Larry.

[Lawrence Dunbar]

Of course IMOO, Jackey Adams allways ran the best of gear, I first new the Adams in the 50s when old Jakey & Young Jimmy was in the hot seat, I was working for Baxters Road Services on the Newcastle Quayside who were hauling local & long distance stuff from Denmark, The Denmark stuff was landed at 17 shed , Baled Danish Bacon, Plus casks of Danish Lurpak Butter.Along with Tuborg Lager, Canned Mussels Etc, There was plenty of work in those good old days, It was all hand ball but the wages were decent for driving, & If one wanted to work over the hours allowed, One could make good few some extra £s. In the old Sky Rocket, Happy Happy Days.Regards Larry.
