hello oily , lovely pictures good to see the Shropshire theme going , thank you Trevor .

Hi Oily,
Your pic of Paul Marsh’s Daf has got me thinking that the little TK of Gay’s potato’s was something to do with Paul’s Dad, George Marsh, I seem to think they had a building in Wombourne just past the Round Oak Pub, as well as in Wolverhampton Wholesale market, ( I have spelled Wombourne as it is on maps, but on the door of the TK it is spelled the same way as the Great Western Railway when they built a Station there in the 1920’s, now closed) Cheer’s Pete

Hi Oily
The little Albion was for sale a while ago, ever since Bill Capper sadly passed away, not sure if it was sold and the ERF now belongs to Russell Cook and lives near Bridgnorth, I think it was originally a tanker belonging to a brewery then a recovery vehicle and was restored as it is presented now, Cheer’s Pete

Hello Pete ,i would say that ERF is ex Bass Burton on Trent , those colours are very similar to that of Alf Arrowsmith from Market Drayton ,he had an ERF like that one ,thank you Trevor .

Morning Trevor,
I’m sure that it was an Ind Coop motor now you mention Burton, I was talking to Russell,who owns it now, and he mentioned the brewery and I think it was based in South Wales when a recovery motor, Cheer’s Pete
