Happy New Year everyone.
The first pic i have put on before but someone has edited it,looks good.
The colour scheme when Danzas took over was rubbish compared in my opinion.
Looking out the window wet and cold ,what great times we had chasing the sun and earning a living at the same time as meeting some great friends along the way.
Well Dean the Axminster Leyland and Kelly Freight Scania I think is in Greece ,Roger White and Eugene Cunningham, the Central Road Transport F88 also driven by Roger White before he came to Axminster, loading at FMC Ferndown I think, Cadwalader with one of the very early 290 F88 and Swains very early Top line Scania.
I certainly did Dean on the Cerdon on the way to Mont blanc.
Me too Cliff, 15th july 1985 that is where i lay a volvo on its side the bend just before going up to the monument they do look big on their side, take care hopefully will come down to see you next time in uk with George will try not to dislocate his shoulder next time.
DEANB:
Superb photograph. The lorry and the building are both of their time, and look perfect together.
Thanks Dean , Anorak , and Melvin , I remember you doing that Melvin ,.Hardings I believe . I remember being sat outside a bar in piraeus when you suddenley came round the corner to join us anoher good day. That was a great lot of photos of great companies back in the day Dean.

Is Westlands still going Cliff, I ask because we have placed a few bins for asbestos removal in the past few months for roofing sheets and the driver told me there where demolition contractors on site? I still think those T45 cabs looked the part! Cheer’s Pete
They were there yesterday Pete , but its something like Augusta Westland now , Italian owned.
