I’ll flash in 7.5t if they are obviously limited, otherwise if they are flying past me they can make their own mind up.

Was there once a tie up between Fernwoods and Ferndale of Old Basford? Seem to recall that I used to phone Fernwood for 6 wheeler work when things were slack but later they changed to Ferndale with the same office folk (Nick and a woman who’s name I forget) and would find you two days work in one if you let them! To be fair to Ferndale, when they knew that I had been made redundant they offered to buy me a lorry to drive for them but I didn’t go with it. Just wondered if there had been a company split, this would be around 1998/9/2000?

Pete.
