Haven’t seen Pontrilas pulling curtainside trailers before Nathan.They probably only use them now and then.
Cheers Dave.

Don’t keep them as clean as when you were there John.I expect the standards have dropped :wink: .
Cheers Dave.

Some of them never bothered Dave, my good friend from Witney sets the example, some try hard to follow.

I’ve got my eye on the 56 reg Foden 8wheeler with the alloy body, Dave; If I make my lorry look too worn out, I’ll get one of those Naf auto things :laughing: And that man in the WhyMeCo likes the 6wheeler with the Canadian badge on the grille :wink:

Hang in there for a new one Nathan,but I suppose if you get a 56 reg eight legger you would be in line for a new eight legger in a couple of years.
Cheers Dave.

Ah but that 56reg went on the road earlier than the other one; No trips to London for her :wink: :laughing: An Axor would do me but my requests fall on deaf ears.

If you read this weeks commercial motor Nathan.There is a feature about Ken Mallinson,they really rate Mercedes.My mate Ivor Duggan has an Axor and is well pleased with it and wishes he had bought two.

Caught this one just right.One of Jack Richards Daf XF’s in Leominster coming around a tight bend.


Don’t know if this one seen in Leominster belongs to Abbey road tanks.


One of Burgoynes of Lyonshall Renault artics,seen near Monkland,Herefordshire.

Dave the Renegade:

A Van Den Bosch Volvo running bobtail,seen on the A49 Leominster bypass

One of the Birmingham based trucks, been for maintenance in Leominster (where all our trucks are maintained) We run several units out of Cadbury (Kraft) in Marlbrook, so A49 is for us a daily one.
The trailers are addapted silotankers, so they can be used to tip gravity onto a conveyor screw. (LAG tankers for durability)
