Daf six wheeler curtainsider of S Cooper Ltd of Winsford,seen on the A44 Kington bypass.

Hiya …Dave …it looks like the Coopers man has got the map out on that pikky…I worked for Coopers 6 years and asked for a 6 wheeler
but thay said they specialised in 4 wheeler work. I did a regular run to London (10 drops) but was always close on the Gross…I see times have changed
they run about 30 6 leggers and god knows how many artics now…They had 17 4 wheelers when i was there in 86 but just got their first batch of benders

I know the feeling Dave, they are a ruddy nuisance. And no wonder kids nowadays can’t read when there is a car number plate telling them that K is for Bun

Hi truckfing,
Can’t really complain,he is entitled to overtake,we had some good pics spoiled by passing traffic,but then again the road is for vehicles,not camera’s.
That’s a good pic of Gammond’s.Where abouts was that taken.
Cheers Dave.

Quite right Chris. I had it new off Pentagon Commercials at Southampton in April 2006,when I went to collect it,they said it’s up at Fareham. I did the deal at Southampton,but they had taken it to Fareham because the paperwork was there.I got a full tank of diesel for my trouble.
Cheers Dave.

It is taken from a motorway bridge about a mile from our house ( near Garstang, north of Preston. Between the A6 and M6 ) I have two points from where I take pictures near this bridge, one of them I only discovered last Friday. Since I retired I have a look down there most days. Occasionally I just take them from the bridge. I also go all over the country taking pictures. If my wife is with me she drives and I photograph.
A6 Northbound with my wife driving, just like you do but mine refuses to take pictures.

A6 Southbound, again from passenger seat of car

M6 Northbound. This is the spot that I have just found.

M6 Southbound, this is a spot that I have been using for several years

Cracking pics truckfing. I know where Garstang is,we stayed at Heysham for a week and went around that area going to Fleetwood and Blackpool. Just thought we took some pics at Heysham of lorries waiting for the ferry,will dig them out.
Did you drive tippers. :question:
Cheers Dave.
