STRAIGHT EIGHT:
Hi GS, sem to remember seeing Bob and his Scammell in truck magazine, a Long distance Diary feature, think the story was about Peter Lea Trucking F12, in Orient Freight colours, was it that trip?
Now you have got the old thinking box working!!
I do vaguely remember seeing Poggi in one of the editions, and yes hold on a minute…the mist is clearing, I think he was standing with his arms folded with the old Scammell in the background and the main article was with one of Peters.
I think that the Orient truck was going to or coming back from Kuwait and Bob was on a Doha trip.
But we used to do so many trips that I can’t say exactly. Sorry, I’m starting to go off on one here!!
In answer to your question, no it wasn’t that trip, because if it was then I would have got in the article and had my 15minutes of fame!
