Hi All
Fergi the book says (but that has given me duff information before) George Holbrook & Bill Miles the other load had a TK as a support vehicle
Cheers Rich.
Cheers Rich…George Holbrook was still driving lorries into his late '70’s. he may even be 80 now and may still be driving.
Monty Theobald knows him well, and can confirm it, and, when the tight git decides to get himself into the 21st century and buy himself a computer instead of wasting his money in the Sam’s and the Wheatsheaf he’ll be able to make posts himself, and post some of the hundreds of pictures he has as well…

As my last comment worked so well (4 nil), I’ll try this one for size. Can’t wait to see Saints go up as champions this season…
Hi Mikey you may be runners up to the owls now we are in a stabilized financial position as we were both the pre season favorites to win the title
cheers Johnnie
Hi Pat
Would that little lad be Terry Moody
Hi Fergi
Monty may be getting a computer ive just seen a swine of pigs go over heading your way so get the wine out
The book has many more facts on those loads how boring do you want me to be.
George was working for Boar unt until a couple of years ago.
Cheers Rich

Fergie do you bring the Fergies to England ever? for rallys ect
Rich
Afraid not Rich, use to do rallies and ploughing competitions in Cornwall, but now it’s just used for cutting the paddock.
Only go back to the UK for Weddings and funerals, the less I go back, the better ! Although the last time , our sons wedding coincided with the first Wheatsheaf bash, which was great to meet up with Tony (Mappo) and Jim Street after so many years.
I’d take second if it avoids the play off’s so good luck to you.
Ainacs.
was there a prize? Scania badge maybe? (only joking, I like Dafs!!!)
Tribsa,
Mont get a computer, you been on the Sherry?
Anyone, I’d guess the seed company building mentioned above was built when the water was closer to the building. Am i right? Before my time but knowing how flat the area is it must all be reclaimed across to the water as we now know it? Also looks like the Millbrook rd pictured is very new?

A really sad day “Jock” worked for me for many years,a true professional old school driver,always on time,never let anyone down,never saw him without a tie (unless he had his kilt on !) both he and his vehicle immaculate.
He will be sadly missed by all.
