I was a subby for P&O Refrigeration (Ireland) when he was there, but he goes back a long way with my Dad to John /Peter Reardon , Dave has always ran his own motors and funnily enough Dafs! Hes side stepped to other makes but has always gone for Daf.

He told my brother he was down sizing, cost of the fuel must have crippled him!

No, thats Peter Reardon snr and his son Peter Jnr( who used to run 3 Wagons, Phil used to drive one of them to Germany every week) when it was P&O, both of them now work in the Office for McBurney Refrigeration in Sandhills after McBurney bought out P&O.

My dad used to work for Peter and Jimmy Reardon Snr for John Reardon International , a 70s Refrigerated Company. Dave was runnin his own even then so been goin some yrs.

Spammy used to work with my Dad at Derry Bros, which Peter Reardon used to run in Marshalls X.
Wally Thorburn is also an ex Reardon associate!!
