tvdriver:
eric who drove for ryehill he was a great fellow wasnt his nickname smurf, wonder if hes still around i seem to recall him having health problems where they were going to tug his license would have been around 1988/89
Don’t know about his nickname but I came across him again in 98 loading in Aldridge , a wide load on a quad axle lowloader, going to France or Italy, not sure who he was on for though.

Hywel, nice photos there, your F10 was an early one and must of been an animal at 32,000 kg gvw. Its obvious you are one of the old school, and as you say they were the good old days. Small family businesses were the backbone of the country. Hard working loyal owners and employees.
Regards Paul.
Hi again,great pic of your F10 Hywel,I remember the lorry well as it was an early one of the model,I did a lot of deliveries in the Llandovery,Llandielo and Brecon areas in the 70s…happy days!!.

You need to go into your photobucket and into options to choose medium size 640 x 480.
Do you still have the originals stored on your PC? If so you can upload them again after selecting the correct option and then all images will come out as web and forum size.
All your pictures are saved as small or tiny.
Hello,heres todays bunch.

I deliver regularly to the depot next door to Locks in Headcorn. They used to run quite a number of Whites back in the 80s, but like you say, they have all MANs these days. A nice tidy fleet all the same. A friend of mine has a big pile of Lock photos including the Whites. I’ll ask him if i can borrow them.
Yea please, that would be good Mark R,dont seem to have seen to many pics of locks trucks
