I think we have seemed to have forgotten those add a fact to location . Must add a few more. Edited by: Vince Hawthorn at:19th July 2014 22:21 |

Dave John Posts: 22335 Joined: 27th Feb 2011 Location: England | Posted at 09:03 on 20th July 2014 I'm pretty sure of this cos the company concerned has its base in Carlisle and my company brings airline provisions in from Germany to deliver to the airport. Eddie Stobart, and the airport is London Southend Airport All his trucks have two names ane they are always ladies names. You can apply to have names on a truck but the waiting list is quite long. |
