what happened to…
RT Stewart (manningtree), used to do benelux/ germany/ scandinavia for Samson. I used to do same work. (although one of their drivers tried to convince me he’d been to far east overland, but didn’t really get any further that Holland! )
UFO from Leeds? I ran a couple of times with a guy called Malcomb (wagon and drag) on Italian.
Sheddicks
Cadwallader
Lester O’Brian , a Leicester base owner driver with an ERF (early 1990’s) doing Italian for LKW Walters (same as me)
Anyone remember a company with white Iveco tractors pulling blue tilts, did a lot of animal skins to Vincenza for leather, stunk if you followed them!
Dave Goulding, o/driver did Italian in early 1990’s white Merc?
Also my mates dad, Derek Martin, did m/e for years in the 70/80’s? (now a cab driver in Eastbourne, just wondered if you knew him)

Not sure where Lester parked his motor, but i know he lived in Leicester. I’m trying to find a pic i’ve got of him in Trento, loading radiators from De longhi’s.
