hello all. I was just browsing and came across your forum. Being 'tea lady' to a lot of vintage commercial vehicle owners i thought i would register and mabe join in some of your discussions. My other half has been a trucker all his working life and enjoys the vintage scene but is not too keen on the computer but hopefully i can encourage him to participate a little!

Welcome, tea lady.
I'm sure you will find this a friendly place and there is much of interest for those of a vintage bent.
Look around through the archives, comment, and maybe add your own photographs for us to appreciate.

Your very welcome tea lady, most on here are always ready for a brew :D

Hello and welcome to the forum, look forward to a good brew, enjoy and all the best.

Tea Lady! A very warm welcome from the sunny Isle of Anglesey.

Thanks for the warm welcome yes i could post some pics only i am bit of novice on this so u may have to wait a bit ha ha we have thousands!! what and where do you suggest i post them sorry to be so thick!!!

Cheers coastie i would love to come and stay on your 'sunny' island one day. I have a picture of my dad camping there in the forties. I like camping but i am more fortunate than he was and have camper van instead of canvas.

If you read the above link you should be able to put photos on site, don't worry about what category to put them in, as we can correct that. Most of all Enjoy!!

Thanks for that Ian it should help a lot all i need now is some time to sort them out!!

being an ex bus driver we always have to stop and have lots of tea :-) ... round here we all drink Yorkshire Tea of course :-)

Welcome, Huddersfield - we've already seen photographs of your vehicle!

Feel free to add comments and tell stories of your experiences.

Hi I have a fleet of 2 buses both Huddersfield , both double deck, the Daimler I bought 2 years ago and it needed quite a bit of work to put back on the road however it is roadworthy and I try to keep using it as much as I can. I couldnt believe my luck tonight to find 2 pics of the other bus on here.... they will be very useful to help in putting the bodywork back together. lots of stories to tell on here in the future as well as the friends I have made who have an old bedford truck they have restored ... so that should interest some of the truck members that you have ..... many thanks for letting me join your group..
:)

I spent 17 years in the Experimental Department of Bedford Truck and Bus . . .

do you remember this bedford vehicle

Looks like a KH model (rather than a KM), probably 381 cu in Bedford engine.

Luton registration (though not a 'prototype') so probably Central Traffic (doing the haul between Luton/Dunstable and Ellesmere Port).

Not from the Engineering Department fleet, so not one that I would have driven.

If you do come over I look forward to meeting you and having a cuppa. (Or a panad as we say here.):)

Coastie ... I have booked in at Llandudno for the Festival weekend in May ...let me know if you are coming down the coast to the event
