On the subject of Dennis, a couple I saw at Newark last Sunday, I was pleased to see the Whitbread one in the proper livery as father used to work for them, last year it was in a different livery and the owner told me he was returning it to original.

Hi Stan, I found the pic on flickr about a couple of years ago and when I looked at your avatar, the location triggered me thinking, I have a pic somewhere. bara-koukoug, whose photo it is, no longer has a flickr account and by his real name is a Senior lecturer at Aberystwyth University and lives or did live in Borth.

Hi Oily, the Maltese Dennis with a hiab look’s like one of the ex North West Water wagons which
were made specially for them by Dennis I believe. They were a fully fitted vehicle with everything
that a gang could need when they went to a job but turned out to be white elephants. They
appeared for sale in the back pages of Commercial Motor for months and there was a field full
of them at Bamber Bridge for a long time but they didn’t seem to find many buyers.
