P222 do you run into the Speedy(Ex LCH) depot at Coventry if so say hello to the lads for me. I had heard that Des had gone into the office with Brian but wasn’t aware that he had become the transport manager (good on him). Did Brian leave or has he moved up the ladder ? Regards Allen.

We do indeed.
Des is the TM now, but I’ don’t know a Brian. I’m pretty sure he isnt there anymore. The TM was called Sean before Des.
Stan is still there too.
We also run into Hunt’s so Richard and their old driver (at LCH) Chris are up there now.

They will remember me from the LCH Skem depot I enjoyed working for LCH one of those firms you didn’t mind going the extra mile for. I now drive for Golden Triangle Generators at Frodsham. Not sure wether ive met you at an event at a golf course near Macclesfield if it was you you were collecting cabins. I was in my old wagon then a black DAF 105xf with a 500 compa crane I now drive a black Volvo fh500 with 85PM crane on it will keep an eye out for you on the road cheers Allen.
