Hullo Ron,

A lovely picture of you both. Hope all is still going well for you, Best regards to you both and all at K., will catch up again a bit later…
This is an early 2000’s shot of,IMHO, the finest 8 wheeler and trailer driver of his era,Eric Postlethwiate,“Possy” to everyone that knew him,he was well into his retirement when this shot was taken at Levens Bridge by Chris Swindlehurst when Ray kindly agreed to pause with the Octopus and trailer on his way South.Obviously,the Octopus was a replica of one of the famous “Waggon and trailers” that Brady’s ran during the 60’s but so what !!.I was privledged to have been a trailer mate with Eric at the end of the era,but he taught me a lot of the practical skills I needed to both start,and succeed,as firstly an owner driver and then as an employer of many drivers.Although I was fortunate to have employed many top class drivers over many years,Possy was always and always will be, “numero uno” in my “book” he was a maestro,period !
Nice shot Dennis of a great british workhorse along with a driver that could do his bit as you said, Its just a pity that those good old days are gone, & sadley to say will never return, But at least you , myself, & thousands of others enjoyed them & can tell our Grandbairns what they missed Eh, Regards Larry.
