IIRC Davis Bros used a yard just off the Felling bypass. One of our drivers went to work for them and when they closed came back to us. He said that Solly Davis used to drive around in a Rolls Royce car which never had a tax disc in it.
One of the Turkish fitters ended up working at the Leyland workshop on the TVTE Gateshead. Think he was called Yasha. Good lad too !!!
