Hello boys, I dropped into Scania Cardiff today and was made welcome by the staff there, some of whom remember me from taking the lorries in all those years ago.
To my surprise they gave me some old photos with Catnic trucks and drivers in which we will get posted up on here. I’ll post them on this thread with the others as I don’t see the need to have two South Wales threads going.

Hi Andrew

Now you’re spoiling me Dave it would be just too easy with all that power steering I most likely wouldn’t know where to start I’d think it had developed a fault and I would book it in for repair,
thanks harry long retired.
