I know what you mean John, I used to walk round the Classic wagon shows etc & say “I remember going with Dad in one of those, & Dad used to drive 1 of those” 
. Now I walk round the shows & 75% of them I’ve driven myself

As for adr and his “I’ve driven most of them”. It the same here, I keep saying “i’ve driven one of them”, grandkids keep saying “oh shut up grandad, we know you have, you’ve told us”. 
gom, you’re singing my tune!

The book looks okay, I have one of Peter Davie’s books, The World Encyclopedia of Trucks, along with a few other older lorry books. I have enjoyed them, but I want to share them on the internet, especially the pictures. I have written to publishers for permission to use photos from their publications, I have had various negative replies, some of them quite vague in relation to ownership of the photographic material they use. I may in the past have inadvertently misused someone’s copyright but not with intention of personal claim or gain but only to share the pleasure I get from images I find in the transport books I possess or on the internet. Over the last few years I’ve spent an hour or two browsing the net enjoying lorry/truck pictures, finding those who generously want to share there handiwork with like minded people. A big thanks to them.
