Cant get much tighter than thisrigsby:
i reckon the westbound arch in conway was tighter then the menai bridge , i had to pull the mirror in otherwise there was only a couple of inches to spare . i was strolling round conway one evening when a paddy in a daf 3300 came through the arch, must have been doing 40 mph ( late for the boat ) took both mirrors off and never slowed down . there was always a pile of glass at he bottom of the arch .

Seaman Clubb used to run out of Spencers Wood Reading. I once painted some trailers silver for him in Smiths coaches yard in Reading
Had a driver called Toby, he used to work him hard . they used to work a lot out of Thetford area taking pulpwood to the mills in kent I believe.
Must have been the early 70s .Used to run Christmas trees into market with him as well.

Can anybody still remember seeing the A.A. patrol man who used to stand next to the Menai Bridge in the 60’s. He used to salute all the cars that were displaying an A.A. badge.Funny is it not, when I was a kid and me old man took us out in the car for the day every time we saw an AA man and he saluted us I thought my dad knew them all personally, and that’s what he told me and me sisters cheers Buzzer.
I was told many moons ago, that if they failed to salute, it meant there was a speed trap ahead, then it was deemed wrong for them to be helping speeders so it was all stopped.
