Sorry to hear about Kevin Connolly RIP last time I saw him was many years ago on the boat to LeHavre I was on my way to repair one of my Scania’s (it had picked up a piston) I was with Ron Huntley and Phil Dibden. Kevin told me then that he had had a major operation on his stomach I think!

Dave Elkins, is this any relation to Micky Elkins, who drove for Bakers, Bakers Wharf ( ERF sleepers, and later MAN’s) on the continent in the early '70’s ■■
If not , does anyone remember him, is he still around ?
