Yes Rod we remember you well, allways wore a scarf and went for “supper” instead of dinner.
Ford Transcon if I remember correctly.I didnt know you worked for Aberti you must know Freddie Sparks?
Hello Rod, were you the driver who had a Fordtrans and a cartoon on the door, something like "To the Town "?
and then the Ford sort of fell over on the way to Regia for a Maltese trailer? If it wasnt you then sorry lol

Hello everybody,
the first thing i would like to say is how sad i am to hear about Stan Compton. ( thanks for phone call Rich )
I, like Pat worked with Stan on Sea Route in the late 70,s but i had,nt seen him since those days.However the recent photo
you put on of Stan Tribsa was typical of how i remember him. Always a smile on his face.
My sincere condolences go to Fran.
Rodney Redgrave…I remember you showing me the way to Barcelona on my first trip to Spain in the 70,s
I must have been a right pain cos i stuck with you like ■■■■■ to a blanket.
We shipped out Poole to Cherbourg on Truckline…well the lorries did, we had the pleasure ( not ) of flying.
If you look at page 18 of this thread, you,ll see a pic of your Transcon that i took at La Junquera.( mine was the ERF)

Hi all, hi shady nice bike mate!! Your gonna have a good summer !

If this wasn’t a local truck they certainly shipped thru a local port.

Hi r slicker,
I remember Rola Bear, just as you describe him but he did the 44t railhead work out of Willesdon and our paths rarely crossed.
Just like his trucks they always needed a good steam clean!
