I liked Trevor although he did like the sound of his own voice.

I wonder whether she will carry on with the truckstop. I doubt the plant hire will.

RIP Trevor

There has been a little local speculation as to the future of the Stockyard, but the consensus of the locals around ere who frequent the establishment, is that there is no reason things shouldnt carry on as they are. The Lads will carry on the plant side, and his wife will carry on the rest as before. As I doubt shell be short of a bob or two, as she grew up as part of family who where well orf before she married Trevor. However IMO I wouldnt be suprised if the owners of certain other local truckstops are keeping an eye open, with a view to taking over the place should the business come on the market in the future

He actually treated us better than Joe Public, he had a wicked sense of humour with the grab a granny crowd and looked after us if we were weekended.

I wonder who will be in the lorry park at 2am now checking parking tickets, probably Trev in a different form.

I understand that Trevor’s funeral is to be held on the 27th December.
I don’t however atm know the details (time, place etc) but as soon as I hear anything I’ll update this post.
Whether there will be any effect on the opperation of the truckstop on the date I don’t know atm.
But it may explain why they are holding it later than expected on the 27th during the Xmas period when many companies are off on holiday to minimise disputation
