roping and sheeting

Remember when going scotch (if from the south), or going down to the smoke (if from the north), was long distance?
When Middle East work was readily available?.
When driving a 111 or F89 meant you were truly the king of the road?
Recall those companies long gone, where every day was an adventure?

What ever happened to those drivers you spent hours with.. where did they go? and recollect on those characters in the industry sadly no longer with us.
This forum is for us all to indulge in a little nostalgia and remember with rose coloured glasses how much better it was in the olden days

Exactly, I have no issues acknowledging who took a photo, if I know who did so.
At the end of the day they're simple snapshots, taken for people to see and enjoy, it's not War and Peace.
I don't care who reposts any photo I've put on the internet. If I didn't want other people to enjoy them, I wouldn't have posted them.

On this forum many members post a lot of images that are taken from other websites or bought from photo traders. We do not have time to check whether every image is copyrighted.

If you believe that an image is being shown that you own the copyright to, and wish it removed from this website please contact UKAdmin@Truck.net. Please include a link to the website from where the image was taken.

If we are contacted by the owners of copyrighted images we will/may to remove the image from your post.

Well said. It's only a matter of common courtesy and good manners to acknowledge a source. How sad that courtesy is viewed with derision by a few vocal people on here.


It's not as simple as that. If you go onto an online site and save a picture from it, you are in a position to note who posted the picture and in some cases, note to whom the picture should be credited. In those cases it can be courteous to acknowledge your source.

However, if you do what people like Buzzer and I do: ie go into Google images, where there are thousands of truck pictures that have been copied and re-copied upteen times, you end up with no source to acknowledge.

For example, there’s a picture of a BOC Euroshield E-series ERF and fridge trailer that I took in Paris when I was parked up there thirty years ago. That picture is all over the internet with no trace of me attached to it. I posted it on TruckNet about 13 yrs ago and it went viral like thousands of other pictures in the public domain. That's the reality. The difference is that I don't mind: I'm only glad that people are enjoying that image and it hasn't gone to waste.


That's all fine but, in the case of the Riding website, for example, it has cost thousands to put together, and certain individuals ae blatantly lifting photos which can only have come from there. On Facebook, there is one person who revels in taking photos and giving no credit, and positively gloats in doing so - he's very proud of himself. Incidentally, Facebook's own guidelines say, in essence: if it's not yours, don't post it.

Your last sentence sums it up. If you were that bothered about your intellectual property rights you would surely either have jealously guarded the image in your possession or marked it as copyrighted when posting.

While having some sympathy with Moomooland's and 240Gardner's point of view, I think it best if at all possible to attribute anything you copy from elsewhere, it only takes a minute. I see many people write 'nmp' sometimes. I don't go that far if I don't know the origin or ownership but do attribute if I can.

I do believe though that it is not a rule of this site to do so, only an encouragement, which seems about right to me.

Many years ago here, there was a great debate, and a vote, about fuzzing or not fuzzing reg. nos. of vehicles in photos. My opinion at the time was that they are already in the public domain simply by being on the road, and I am pleased to see that that view seems to be current here nowadays. :D

Lets put the real record straight here, all I have done here is repost a picture from FB which I have done hundreds of times on multiple threads on TNUK. It appears to me that Moomooland must have exclusive rights to any images of W.J.Riding & no one else is allowed to post them with out recognition, this as Ro stated is almost impossible as on FB & other sources there is invariably no mention of the rights of a shot, also Moomooland you have never contacted me directly but only made a comment on the picture that there was no recognition.
The company I established in International transport over 50 years ago and is still trading today also has a thread on TNUK, many pictures we have posted on our own thread have been borrowed if you will and used else ware some actually being sold on and to boot they have been stamped over as if they have the right to profit from those shots. In this case I am not doing this just reproducing pictures from other avenues and there have been no complaints about other company's featured in my posts.
This all seems very petty to say the least and according to fellow posters on TNUK they enjoy my input on here, the last picture posted by me I stated would be my last on this thread but in hindsight I will review that statement and not post any pictures of the afore mentioned company to avoid any further conflict but carry on with other less sensitive material.
So Moomooland you may now retire back into your private life with your personal collection of W.J.Riding archives with out further intrusion from me, Buzzer

Hiya,
Dennis can't make out the reg on the little rigid Atki, just
wondering "with the "little tlt" on the top was it one of
Billy Bowkers or Suttons,hope your keeping well mate.


Hiya "H" how's it going mate ? well I trust !
It was ex Alf's and apparently it had been based at their Oldbury depot all it's time at Suttons and had a very easy life just pottering about hauling a few carboys. It was in very good condition when I bought it the 6LW was sweet as a nut smooth as silk !
These are two 1973 shots the 1968 reg SDJ 403F of the before and after with my brother Richard at the wheel on the day we had collected it and the other shot was after we had painted and lettered it ready to start work. We hadn't got the crash bar fitted when I took the shot of it in the yard.

Remember seeing the Baylis company Dennis when I was on the road but not there traffic, seems you miss the Bewick thread mate as you are posting well presented rope & sheet loads.
By the way don't mention W.J.R on here else you will be eviscerated or worse, Buzzer

I was watching the Breakfast news this morning and it showed the trucks coming through the border in the Israel/Palestine conflict during the ceasefire. I was surprised to see that most were wagon and drags and seemed well sheeted, not a curtainsider to be seen, is this the normal practice in that part of the world?

I don't know Pete, but in addition to being appalled at the terrible suffering inflicted on the Palestinian people I also did feel for the hauliers and drivers as their sheets were torn to pieces by the desperate people swarming all over their trailers.
