It is low Harry.Looks like a farmers lorry to me,probably uses one deck on it,mainly for cattle.
Cheers Dave.

hiya,
Yes Dave more than likely it’s farmer owned, looks like a second man in the
passenger seat only farmers can afford that luxury in this day and age.
thanks harry, long retired.

Evening Gentlemen, Dave, looks just like mine…except Ive had all my trailers re-finished in John Deere Green!! They look much smarter as an outfit! Wonder if he would like to buy a proper bale trailer? Cheerio for now.

Evening all, Dave, 5 of mine are AWs, and very good indeed!! Hope you have both had a good week end, weve been on the bales, (and lots of them), but gives you time to remember, (I just cannot remember the big dealer in Hereford, who had the Diamond T wreckers, and ended up as a Dodge Dealer)… I know, its an age problem!! Cheerio for now.

Praill’s I think Saviem.I used to go there when I was driving for Brisbanes of Knighton,they were the main lorry repair dealer in Hereford.
Cheers Dave.

saviem · 29 July 2012 21:45

Dave, bang on! Praills of Hereford, quite some company, with a tremendous background in commercial vehicles. Did they not have the Atkinson Franchise at some point? Ive got to get my thinking cap on now, ( several large glasses of Bollinger… a bit like easy start for a geriatric)!! thanks, Cheerio for now.

dave_the_renegade · 29 July 2012 21:49

Yes I think they did have the Atkinson franchise at one time.I think the likes of Roberts of Knighton had theirs off Bevan’s of Swansea.
Cheers Dave.

A small Mercedes wagon & drag,seen on the A44 at Golden Cross near Pembridge,Herefordshire.
A TNUK member and artic driver had an artic bulk feed wagon coming towards him turned off at that junction earlier this week on the inside of the bollards at 6am in the morning

Another consignment of Altitude`s home-brew beer makes its way to his new residence in Powys.
It should all be safely delivered in time for the Footy match on Sunday evening

Cheers , ( hic ! ) , Anon.

The driver delivering my beer did get the right side of the island the bell-end with the animal food must have had to much from the night before.
