Ah!,the missing CMR has turned up after 24 years.Could the claused signature have anything to do with the delay ?
Anyway, a set of Badger-or is it a Badger set ?

1st pic taken at Alton on A31 on the way back from Tiltec, Barking
Nice pic of my DAF, before I put her thru the wars, she was a bit battle scarred by the end, mechanical she was completely sound never put a spanner
on the Engine 800,000 kms, only 1 clutch.
As for the CMR it clearly states badly loading by the French so Sorry no claim accepted

He was , but can’t think name of yard, the Volvo f10 was ADL 2T,
Good to hear mate, is he still at it ■■?
I was demonstating a F7 6x4 tipper to an O/D in Swindon one day. He had the Volvo and I drove his Ford. When coming up Blunsdon hill, who should pass me but Mike Death.
The Ford had " Harveys tippers" on the side ( Richard Harveys company) and Mike nearly fell out of his F10 when he passed me. he phoned me the next day in the office and wanted to know how long I had had a tipper company, we had a good laugh at that one, Cheers Harvey
Re mike death, it was near on 40 yr ago I had a job there (long story)
He had the Volvo,2 3300 daffs and day cab scania 110.
After my departcher!! He…I believe parked the lot up and opend a tractor dealership, which again as I believe closed down.
No idea what he is up to now, hope this helps?
Thanks for that “Trucker08” As I get older I sometimes think “Whatever hapened to” sort of thing, especially with people I enjoyed doing business with.
I think I would find it hard selling trucks these days with the drink and drive rules, ha !!! Harvey

Jimmer that GUY is a 1971 Reg so going back a bit, the only one old enough to remember that is Mappo a senior, senior member, cheers Buzzer.
Now now Buzzer, i cant believe you said that and we’re the same age…
I have driven several Big J’s in my early career, for Smith of Maddiston and also for Henry Smithers,
as well as the one i drove for Wardells that i did my 1st trip over the water in…must have been mad.

Me also Tony drove a BIG J out of Helston Cornwall VWN 475H no power steering and it ended up with a chap from Alderbury who worked on Smart Freight remember them but one of my first motors as an O/D was a Mammoth Minor Chinese six tractor unit SMW 608J and as you said I also drove a non sleeper Mandator for Frank Allen on PBC for £35 a week all in and your right we must have been mad, Buzzer
