How many wagons did A.One have in Bison floors,I remember a mercury and a scammel routeman been on in bison colours and the rest going in as A.One . The a frames that they used to carry the house sides on,i went with my dad a few times on those loads.When did that job stop?when they went bust or earlier?

[maxhagar]

On the M6 the other day and saw lots of Jack Richards wagons,looked at their website and they are almost the same as A one used to be,and Jack Richards is almost a double of JMR.

Keith was it you or Woody that reversed up the bonnet of John Taylors new company car and popped the headlights out. lol ? He loved his motors didn’t he . When you took it for some new tyres and they hammered lead balance weights on to the outside of his Ford RS alloys and he went ballistic I watched him kicking the [zb] out of the tyres while you were trying to drive off back to ATS to get them sorted happy days
What about me reversing into a lamp post outside a shop while we were out on road test , never saw it well I’d just passed my test , didn’t teach you that while learning

it was woody who backed over his car with the tow truck,hit it once and then had a second go ,when it it came back from the paint shop it had side skirts an rs parts fitted to it,took it to ats they put some new tyres on it when I got back the big eyes saw wot they had done my legs was on a wobbely when I set off back,old git had a ■■■ in that car and saw that the ■■■ lighter had been used ha ha the cleaner got the blame,where his he now,keith

was once in Bradford doing a gov job cash in hand sunday morning,taylor pulled up with his mate in a ford cosy,he saw the a one van,asked wot I was doing but just smiled and left thank god for that was fitting a ones parts,things you do when you are skint,ever be there,remember that skip place we did on the side jobs for phil,keith

So Keith, you worked for the government did you, was it in the Tony Blair era, I hear he was good at paying cash, in fact he’s now doing cash jobs for himself and getting himself millions for it, what happened to you, are you a millionaire yet. :- Jack Jacksonville Florida.

Hi Keith, it’s been a bit colder than normal over here, I’ve managed to catch a bad cold and been laid up for the past 3 days, although it’s warmer today and still wearing my shorts, but I know I’ll have to come back to reality in 3 weeks time so am making the best of it while I can, I’ve been in contact with my kids since I came and they say it’s cold, so at least that put’s a smile on my face even though I’m full of cold.:- Jack

See Maurice Eccles [Bradford wool rollers boss] died recently, dont expect anyone will shed tears over him as he was a horrible little t**t. Good ridance in my book !!!

His name rings a bell, didn’t he work for Chapman or A1 when I knew him, there were a few arrogant bosses around then and he sounds like one of them. "-Jack

Hi Jack, he was at Edwards Bell maybe Renwicks, or both, [ minds going ], City Road, not the best Transport Manager I ever worked for, don’t know anyone who had a good word for him.

Hi Les, I think he did a short spell at Chapmans, he was worse than Joe Rubbery, “an ex driver” who worked himself into the office and turned into another arrogoant “bar stuard”, and your right he did work for Edward Bell, one of the most hated managers in Bradford, just to let you know Rubbery did good for himself in Transport, but not a friend of drivers, his son who also worked for K G Fielder after leaving school worked in the wool office ened up being a director of the didgitall company who worked from Salt’s mill Saltaire, who eventually sold his share and bought Huddersfield Foot ball/Rugby ground and club, which goes to show that being a arrogant GIT can pay for some folks. Regaeds :- Jack
PS Rubbey’s son was Barry Rubbery, look it up in Huddersfield rugby club.!!!

[jack_graham]

Just a thought guy’s, being a driver brought many friends and mates for life with the job, it could be a bit lonely at times when you spend days at a time by yourself, but when your parked up at the weekend mates “not only from A1 but most companies” all joined together and made it worth the while, this what you never got with managers, lots of them must be like 'Billy no Mates" and usualy with bad attitudes to match. :- Jack
