Out & About 2012

Ralph Davies Volvo - Pictured below is an ex Ralph Davies Truck.  It is now owned by Ryan Senior and is being lovingly restored to its Ralph Davies hey-days.  What a lovely truck it is and well done to Ryan for taking the time to send us this photo and the one from the front page.

Dutch Flyers - Been spotting this fleet of Van Duijn for a while now and there's just something about the fleet.  They can be seen all over the UK on any roads from the far north of Scotland to the southern tip of England.  I have always been partial to a lorry in green.

New Scania's for PMP Forward - PMP Forward have just take delivery of 4 x 61 reg Scania R440 Hi-line's.  These trucks are to replace the 4 x 56 reg Scania's which were the last in the old orange livery in service working from the Southampton/Andover depots.  There are another 3 Scania's to come in the middle part of the year.  Our Fleet List has been amended.

Scotlee International - whilst taking photo's on the busy M1 @ Toddington I managed to get a photo of this Scotlee below.  It was nice to see some nice colour appear in such a dull un-inviting dump.  With the roadworks and other things it was the splash of Scottish colour in a very drab setting.

Turkish Dream - Spotted this truck in Membury Services a few days back.  Based in Istambul, Turkey, they have a fair old run to get over to the British Isle, but this company can always be seen on the uk road network.

Welcome to 2012 - Welcome to the new Out & About Page for 2012.  A bit belated but its here now.  We are still working on the site at the moment, Patsy is tidying all the fleet sightings whilst I am trying to get the european side of things done.  Keep popping back to see the progress on both.  Now it just leaves us to say Happy New Year to you all....
