gordonbennet Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 ^^^ phwoar, bog standard 2800 Daf, i did some bloody miles in one of those, cracking lorries. Used to take my little lad then aged about 2/3 in a Britax child seat professionally* roped to the lorry passenger seat, they'd call bloody social services in now and put me on a register.At the plant he'd have to hide on the bed behind the curtain while i changed trailers, cos no kids allowed, course the little sod would poke his beaming little face out and i'd have to shoo him back in but never got caught, big lug now with a 4 year old and 12 month old of his own. mat_the_cat, Asimo, scruff and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pillock Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 My mate's granddad drove for a transport firm, in the school holidays we both used to go along with him. One on the bunk, one in the passenger seat, hiding behind the curtain when we went to some sites like collieries. Went in a variety of DAFs, remember a 2500, 2800 and a 3300 with the bigger front bumper - that was their pride and joy. Also a Volvo F10. Just remember them getting a new-fangled DAF 95 on fleet when I was getting a bit too old to tag along. Also, Mrs_Pillock used to ride along with her dad doing coal, sugar beet and stuff around Lincs. Same deal.... hide behind the curtain when you pull into the colliery and keep quiet gordonbennet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DodgeRover Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Maybe continental runs with 2 drivers? when I lived in Birmingham there were companies who's black cabs were on the road 24/7 as they were split or rented between different drivers, given what a modern wagon costs you would want to keep it moving and earning as much as possible?
