Long Departed Southampton Hauliers (Part 2)

Load of washing machines?

Ah Norman (not a lot too Offer) the old man Norman was gold block but sadly the son not so, I once turned down a freebie trip to the Volvo factory in Sweden because he was going and I was not alone for some reason, as the old adage says its not always like father like son.

As Gazzer said Transport Services

I tried to reply to your harsh comment on FB Buzzer. Yes I put ”Transport Services” because anyone who was not from our area would not know that was the firms name, just a declaration of what they do, just as above, “European Haulage”. Could have been read as “Carryfast European Haulage & Transport Services”. No offence!

Bet you tipped a few times in there Gazzer, this before TIP days looks like army billets to me.

That roundabout has changed a lot since that shot was taken,IIRC there used to be a house in the middle of it.

Buzzer John that was taken about 65 years ago there was a number Euclids and a few Cat

We all been through there a few times, not sure what year that was taken.

Well if that was summer 1971, that could well have been me at the wheel of that transit minibus!:wink:

Les hard to tell the year but that is a Ford Cargo is it not behind the Leyland tipper, remember the shapes of the old cars but they look so different by todays standards

Buzzer, apologies for correction but that Ford Cargo is a D Series, and with the early transit pic is anywhere from 1966 on :+1:
