Dave.Clee Hill delivered a lot of chippings into central London in the late 60s,the crack was to set off at about 12am and be in and out before the traffic. We used to have a trip with them in the school holidays,trouble is some of the boys had been in the pub all evening.Mark

Hi Mark,

Cheers Dave.

Hi Steve,
Nice pics. Lloyds still run a couple of artics,could be four,they still have a licence for about 70 lorries plus more trailers. I think one of the daughters run it now.
Cheers Dave.
