Wheel Nut:
Watching last nights exciting episode of ■■■■ in Trucks I was so hoping they would arrest that fat lad at Southend Airport taking photos of a restricted area
Ooh look! they are all lined up!
Hello everyone
Wheel Nut, Will You Please take that comment back about Craig (or as you call him, the Fat Lad). He is accually a very good friend of mine and that comment is way out of order.

Craig is a member of trucknet.
Hello georgeking
I didn’t think he was on Trucknet. Accually, He isn’t a friend but I know a few people who know him and I only said he was a friend to stick up for a fello Eddie Stobart Spotter and Truck Spotter.
Wheel Nut, Please take the remark back.
Kindest regards

mark h, ‘marra’ is West ■■■■■■■■ dialect for ‘mate’. Its mainly used in the Aspatria, Maryport & Workington area, but its used more in Maryport than anywhere else. I only use it to add a bit of local dialet and regionality into my posts. I hope this clears this up marra!
Kindest regards

Your welcome wideboybob. I’m still looking because I’m 100% sure that I’ve got a photo of R227 VRM.
As for Crick, I think your right there.
I often do that (taking photos of ex Stobarts). Theres quite a lot in my area run by Annandale Transport, of which I got a few photos

Well it’s hardly changed my life, but it does satisfy my curiousity,
BTW - this thread was hilarious when all the slagging off was going on, I was laughing my head off at the first few pages. Sadly I had to scroll through pages & pages of the same few pictiures of the same few trucks (or identical trucks) to find out what the weird word meant.
Here’s a pic for you marra !

Hello Toddy2
Interesting photo marra. By the looks of that tractor unit, it is H006 ‘Frankie’, the Crick based tractor unit that shunts trailers to the MOT/ VOSA station for servicing in the Crick area.
I bet that driver got a right telling off !
Thanks for that photo
Kindest regards

I was talking to a old mate of mine who has a very large collection of truck photo,s,and has a lot of the early stobarts and is selling them,if any one is interested let me know.
