hi ian,
thank you very much for the penllyne information,i was hoping you would see the photos.i gather the late Tom ball’s son is a serving traffic officer in south wales police these days.i vaguely? remembered jeff thomas from the photograph,as i saw him a few times in the yard,many years ago (mid-late 70’s)when every weekend, my father did alot of remote control flying across the way from penllyne.tony singleton as far as i am aware never worked for penllyne haulage,though a life long mate of mine did,Paul lampard,known as ginger,he had several foden’s and ended up with a brand new 95 daf,the only one penllyne ever ran.
regards andrew.
