When I was on the Octopus and trailer at Bradys we used to stay at least one or sometimes two nights at Walfords café in Llamsamlet, S. Wales and there was always one of Robsons “Star men” there called Norman ( or ■■■■■ Norman as he was known) as he was " taking care" of Mrs. Phillips ( a great old Lass) the owner of the Café who lived in a nice big property further up the road ! Well “■■■■■ Norman” got a new Foden unit like the one in the advert every 6 months just to “run in” and believe it it was run in very steady as he used to spend 2 or 3 days a week in S,Wales doing locals for Gwynne Bowen or Trevor Phillips on the pretence that there wasn’t much traffic for the North. Then “hey presto” on Thursday he would load for Carlisle or Irvine and run back home !!! I kid you not !! Cheers Bewick.
Now Bewick, I always thought that Robsons were a well respected, well run business however you don’t seem impressed.
