Seeing that picture of Morry Moodys Skoda on its side with a UBC box which was of course Mackpac reminds me them 20’ boxes could be top heavy especially if loaded with tinned fruit and the likes nearly lost one on its side me self turning up the A10 of the north circular early one morning but corrected it as not much traffic about but made you more care full in the future, also doing loads of tinned sweet corn to Tesco’s depot and you always had to drop the trailer so the front was sloping downhill as some one opened the doors one day and loads fell out on top of the poor man, you’d get hung for that today by 'elf an safety cheers Buzzer.

Hi John

Hi Pat I used to do a lot to the Ford tractor plant in Basildon, usually in the old tilt sided 20 footers with the TIR cables running round, got boring doing the same job, also three nights a week Mick Shepherd RIP who was transport manager for Star car transporters in West Quay road did the same run and when he had reloaded on the pad at the birth he would give me a ring and I got into a nice warm motor for the day run. Mackpac were in the old docks to start with but moved to 205 birth I think but cant remember what year that was, cheers Buzzer.

Hi Buzzer I was on for Denny White when Mick (RIP)was Transport Manager I was there bout 79 pulling Renults out the docks I’d say that was about 1979 that sound bout right to you ? and Mick was a really good mate of Jim Street too, did you know that ? Small world innit !

Hi All
A bit of the scent but its the King Alfred bus running day in Winchester today with over 40 old buses from all over the country & even France but after 30 years of this event its the last one as they are pulling Winchester bus station down the oldest one running will be 1931 which is older than a few of you on here lol .Buzzby have you got a stage coach those old nags could pull for the day as the buses up from Portsmouth are full.
A few old car bikes & lorries turn up as well Bob Smith usually brings some of his AEC collection.
Cheers Rich
PS. 21,000 people travelled on the buses last year in the one day runs go out on most of the old routes for King Alfred Hants & dorset & Wilts & Dorset see you there.
