Hi B1 GGK, no I never drove for Coutauld’s although I did do quite a few loads for them from Sponden near Derby and Greenfield near Flint, mainly for Turkey and Rumania. I actually worked for Blue Dart Transport who were part of the British Vita Group ( Vitafoam ) in Middleton, are they still going ?.Vita’s still there, alot of their work is subbied out to Boarhurst of Stalybridge.
Know a guy called Dave Fearn who drove for Vita for years.Hi, B1 GGK Dave Fearns rings a distant bell and I bet he knows Cliff Poulter who was the transport manager at Vita for donkeys years.
I will ask Dave when i see him next,
Dont suppose you know of an ex O/D called Malcolm Taylor, used to live in Chadderton until the 80’s.
