I've transhipped myself from the Railway forum and parked up in here for a bit.I am retired now,having spent all of my civilian career in road transport,since 1968,both as a driver,controller and shunter.Have done general haulage,tankers and fridge work.I still hold my HGV licence.I was exempt from the driving test as I had previous experience on artics in 1968-70 so got my class one automatically

So I'm an old sod really,and have plenty of (true) stories to tell.
