No pics Straight 8, but did you work for them around the eighties?
If so did you know the TM who came to them from Econofreight at Markfield? Can’t remember his name offhand but he was a thickset bloke, not tall, with a NE accent.

I only have one on my site, have a few lying around will have to dig them out and add. When I get a chance.

Sorry mate, no i didnt, but i think ive spoken to him in the past, we done a bit of work for Leicster’s in the early 90s hauling a lot of gear from London up to Lancashire and remember talking to a Geordie sounding fella about load and permit details when on the phone to their transport office, nice helpfull bloke as i remember, we never had any bother (which makes a bloody change in heavy haulage!!!) with’em.
