Welcome,
hendicky.
We can do with some feminine points of view on here, and we are considerate, so feel free to express yourself and contribute to anything that takes your fancy.
There are many female drivers on the road now, though I don't think any have joined Truck and Bus (unless they haven't come out of the closet yet).
Long before I became involved in transport I used to follow the trucks (or lorries as they were back then) that past our house, in my case the most frequent were Robsons of Carlisle and then probably British Road Services (do you remember them?).
I don't suppose that you ever saw any Robsons of Carlisle down your way (it would be a three-day trip - and three days back) though I bet you see Eddie Stobart.
Do tell us what you see and we will try and find them - I've recently found an operator from the Highlands of Scotland!

Quote:
We have recently purchased 9 No. 56 plate R420's from Hanbury Riverside. They were all bought "over the phone", and painted in our colours. As usual, the same as every other time I have bought off Lee Smith, they were all in immaculate condition, on time and as described. If there is such a thing as an honest secondhand salesman, Lee is the man.
Service as always has been excellent, and Hanbury are a pleasure to deal with.
