B series Paul AKA Paul East owns the Roberts ERF.

Hi, Dave, Saw that B-series in Ross Roadways livery parked in Fairford on a Saturday night a few weeks ago looking fabulous. Does Paul live in the area, do you know?

He lives local at Fownhope Casey, and runs a Volvo FH artic on bulk haulage. Got a lot more pics to post later from Hereford and Kington.
Cheers Dave.

The mystery deepens!
Thanks, Dave.

I’m no mystery
honest!!!
i was parked in fairford as i was staying in the bull hotel. i was attending the steam fair at south cerney for the weekend and didn’t really fancy a board across the seats or camping

Aha. There you are, Paul! :smiley:
That explains it although it was really none of my business. I was in Fairford looking after the sprog’s dogs while she and her family were on yet another exotic holiday. You could have saved yourself a few shillings by staying with me and I could have had a closer look at your superb restoration.
I used to know the Roberts Bros as I worked for a haulier in Ross on similar work with similar kit and recognised the livery as I went for a takeaway.
I would have attended Cerney myself if I’d known it was on!
Thanks for satisfying my curiosity- good to meet you on this page.

Hiya,
ROF would Pauls free digs have come with a car park ticket :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: .
thanks harry, long retired.

Yes, of course, H. And you could have a half crown ticket for 6d or a five bob ticket for a shilling!
And given the circumstances, you could have the free use of a brain-dead Boxer dog to guard the lorry all night!

Hiya,
Your’e a star ROF always guaranteed to give me a giggle :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
thanks harry, long retired.
