Brilliant clip. Seeing old lorries in a row are like old men. They like there own characters. And an ald story to be told by them. A generation where there was no phones. Just a good old crack when they seem other in the yard or the pub.
Great video again . Thanks mate. I wonder what old Jock would say if he saw himself on here. Hopefully some of his old workmates are around to view these videos. A gene era. Love the Guitar and Banjo music too.
3:32,the foden going through my hometown of Sauchie,lots of memories for me,my dad drove for BRS,Russell's of Bathgate,Pioneer,Hamilton and Brydie,thanks for these.
I sent that photo in. Your father must've known my dad if he drove for Hamilton and Brydie. All the Tillicoultry Quarry lads and Hamilton boys all knew each other.
@JBM_Autodipz Jock Hillis was my dad. That's him stood next to the Foden Mixer at the start of the Video. I remember your dad. I was always with my dad in the lorry whenever I was off school. Happier days.
