Hello Dave and Tracy ,
It could have been 3 , an F7 was also in the line up ! cc .
Hi cc,
I always like to see a Mansel Davies wagon. We got a pic of one this week. We do see a few passing through on the A49 or the Leominster–Brecon route. Have been to Llanfyrnach a few times. Will have to go and pay a visit on a weekend when more of the fleet are there. Christmas would be a good time when a lot would be there,except for the milk tankers. Only problem with that plan is Tracy wouldn’t go with it.
Cheers Dave

Those Volvo F10 and F12’s always looked a nice lorry and still are when seeing them at the various shows.
Another great pic CC.

The pub on that bend was called the first & last inn in England wasn’t it ?
hello trev, The pub is called the bridge Inn And called the trap to all locals.

Not sure of that one Trevor, I never used that road much, I spent a lot of time supping tea in the Lion cafe at Gobowen where the garage is now, do you remember that ?

hello OXO , thats right the Lion quays on the opposite side of road . thank you Trevor .
Hi Trevor,
Was Perry’s based by the Lion Cafe ? Had a look around the Lion Quays, beautiful place next to the canal, but I expect you need a healthy bank balance to use the place. The Lazy Kettle transport cafe belonging to Pickstock’s is more my type of eating place.
Cheers Dave.
