Hi Graham,
Quite a few tippers up there.We only got a few as we passed through the town.Is the Foden still from the Bristol area,or is that where it originally came from.
Cheers Dave.

i remember years ago how nerve wrecking it was crossing the COB it was so narrow that there was only a ■■■ papers width between you and the wall on the left and the truck on the right and it used to cost 5p to cross but early morning it was free

Hi ianto,
They were still charging 5p to cross the Cob up until about three years ago,used to have a small table in the middle of the road.
Cheers Dave.

Hi Trev,
They still got tolls on the two bridges lower down the coast,not that they would take a lorry.The wooden one below Barmouth doesn’t feel safe in my van.
Cheers Dave.

Cheers, cattle wagon man.
