I just thought this might make an interesting topic, and would like to see what I recognise old and new. This is my cv … 75 to 81ish Beresfords on and off, 85 to 91 owner operator going to France mostly groupage for whoever paid well, 95/96 JSL Stoke unprofor/ifor to Split, 96/ 98 LTS Stoke 98 /99 PHI Stoke Spain 99/01 Norberts Caen depot channel hopping France UK, 02 07 R McCann JCBs to Spain tiles back from Castellon, 07/09 Transalliance Hilton to France, 09/12 R McCann again but this time fridge work Gib and Spain. Thats it sadly now working agency UK work as our esteemed politicians have well and truly stuffed International work unless you are Eastern bloc. Thanks for letting me indulge and look forward to perusing your responses.
