Bump.

Maybe the main cause of the demise of the ■■■■■■■■ thread RR is that most if not all of the many colourful Characters that populated the ■■■■■■■■ haulage world are now in the Big Cafe in the sky although one or two could be “down below” stood by the fire :wink: So sadly there is only Hodge and me left and Hodge now has his own site on Tik Tok eh " The daily problems of a Tar Tipper Driver" :laughing: :laughing: :sunglasses: :wink: Cheers Bewick

Aye mebbys you’re right Dennis.
I ain’t on FB myself, but my Mrs is, so I sometimes view the ‘■■■■■■■■ Hauliers and Drivers site’ on there.
It seems fairly active, have yourself a look.
I think your old (or young) mate is on there as a driver now, who’s TN username escapes me, …the young boy who was a big Stobart fan and called everybody ‘marra’ on here. :smiley:
All the best mate anyhoo.

Larry recalled his name “■■■■■■■ Gill” and what that sixteen year old didn’t ken about the business you could write on the back of a stamp. :blush: He was going to kick off, when he was old enough, running half a dozen motors no O/D slog for him ! Straight to the top with his mate “Fast Eddie”. I believe when he did get a start he got a dose of reality and he swapped jobs a time or two so I’m not sure what he is up to nowadays. ! If he sees this post he might stoop to come on TN and enlighten us to what he is up to nowadays but then again he might be flipping burgers by now at Maccys in Wigton :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: Larry will know :wink: All the best for 2024 cheers Dennis.

Well IIRC He got a driving job at Jenkys. :question:

Lawrence Dunbar:

That would be his third job Larry because IIRC he kicked off at D A Harrisons and then got a start at Thompsons in Maryport ! Must be trying them all before he decides which one to buy out eh ! Cheers Dennis.

Hi Stravaiger
Some nice pictures. My father owned that s20 foden LHH572 after robsons of Carlisle sold it on and he used for a few years then he sold it to a showman in yorkshire. I have pictures of it in our livery and also came across a picture when it was in showland. I will try to scan the pictures and post then on.

Small World :laughing:
Cheers Al
