Crikey you are not kidding, I remember the launch well, great post
Hello again,good stuff lads…this is what the thread was suppose to be …a scrapbook,anything anyone wants to add to it is great…not just my junk
Ok,the square pics from years ago are getting low now,I’ve dragged these out of the Scania drawer,its a bit self indulgent but I love old 1 series Scanias.
Seen outside Cadburys factory at Keynsham overnighting is this 111 from Scotland.
Its August 1st,first day on the road for this 141,seen on Membury services M4.
Ringwood lorry park,sees this 111 with a kangaroo trailer on,I think it was ran by Truman Transport services,Southampton…Pat will know.
T.H.Brown of Grimsby seen at Gordano services for the night.
And his mate was with the previous one the same night,note the difference in the livery.
Seen at the top of Haldon hill,A38 opposite the racecourse,this is the 111 thats now restored in Cannons of ■■■■■■■ colours…I think.
Interport transport from Felixstowe,showing off their 111 at a show
One of the last pics I took before getting a 35mm camera,this 111 was seen in Taylors cafe,Newport.
Not many BRS motors had sleepercabs back then.
SEV928W When Able freight had it,our good pal Pat (ainacs) had her after and ran it on european work.
Hope these are of interest.
Cheers Bubbs,

HI Bubbs ,
remember seeing 'HEV 1T- still in original colours well into the mid to late 90sthink it may have been owner driven then, on traction/container work
i remember my stepdad coming home in HEV 1T many moons ago , he was loaded with 2 or 3 j.c.b’s on a flat trailer at the time and i’d been sent to bed for being naughty , i heard him driving down the road at the back of our house and lost all control and went running down to see it . ( i got in big trouble off my mum for that ) it was still in full bandag colours at the time and cant have been very old . sorry but i cant remember who owned it then but it was probably someone in the northwest . i’m certain though that we saw it years later in dover painted black , it still had the HEV 1T reg and you could still see the bandag stripes under the paint .
Hello again,thanks to Pat for putting me right,I knew he knew everyone with a Scania down his way…he probably ended up with most of them in the end
…good input from the rest of the lads,all good stuff.
Graham Sweetings F86,smart little motor.
Parked at Taylors cafe,Newport,Ken Thomas’s F86.

Don’t get me wrong - use it - I am sure Claire won’t mind you using it if you credit her.
I know it’s a short one but may be of interest to someone
