#ThrowbackThursday; Sort Of…….

I used to work for this lads uncle, Pete Lloyd as an apprentice forestry engineer (My second full time job, nearly 25 years ago), This chap was a young child at time! I’m Feeling old! Not an owner driver, he has several lorries I believe, and his Dad Steve is/was(?) a forestry contractor with amazing Ponsse machines and you’d often find me laying in mud in a Welsh forest servicing them. Trust me, a harvester has A LOT of oil!

*I got the sack from Pete after I had a week off to do my Transport Managers CPC! ‘You clearly don’t see your long term future in forestry!’ and he was right and it was fair enough. It kicked started my driving career, my next job was a bus driver for Davies Bros (Pencader) Ltd. (Davies Bros were my first job out of school as an apprentice mechanic)

Sorry went on a bit there

#ThrowbackThursday: Plain & Pretty

 #ThrowbackThursday: At Whites Transport Services Ltd I was mostly freelance and jumping from truck to truck covering holidays but I did have an allocated truck for a while. In a fleet that was full of high power flagships people are often surprised that this was my favourite. I just love how clean it looks. Only a 500 but enjoyable to drive too. Went all over in her, Italy, Germany, Spain, Austria etc. very enjoyable job that, pulling out of Dunbia Llanybydder near home, formerly Oriel Jones, and a lot of my childhood was spent in Oriel Jones lorries as my Dad worked for them.  The Best Driver CPCs In The World
