Hello Dave,

See you’ve gone upmarket and headed further up this way! :wink: Didn’t see a good lookin’ fella driving a Hino on your travels did you? :smiley: You need to come a bit further up though, loads of tippers round Halkyn/Mold area.

Hi hammer,
I come up to the Oswestry area quite often,will keep an eye open for you in your Hino. Got a few things on in the next month or so,but will get up your way sometime.
Cheers Dave.

Have seen them up this way quite a bit in the last couple of years John,but not so much this year. Your old outfit have several up here every day,they have a yard Hereford again.A lot of artics from everywhere are loading out of these local quarries,would imagine a clearing house has most of the artic work.
Cheers Dave.

Being an ex lorry driver and very courteous I waited in Ellesmere, Shropshire for this driver to reverse into a side road.

And most grateful he was too.

Hey Martyn arn’t you down at your 2 berth caravan throwing empty "Wife beater " cans into those nice English peoples pitch next door!!!Hay is way above my intellectual pay grade!! I’m more fitted to giving a speech in “the Shutonger” at Tewkesbury to explain to some of these Welshmen what the words “working legal” means!!! Cheers to you all for the bank holiday! Bewick.
