peter bush Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 I remember Derek Sanderson who sold the cars (Dafs and Saabs) I think he has passed on now. Also we used to hire coaches from George Hobson. I wonder if he is still around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard PX5 Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Thanks Richard, I,d forgotten Ernest Bramall. He was very smart. Also wonder what happened to Robert Hibble in the body repair shop. Vera ran the office and a young woman who married a part time driver who was a fireman. I think she still works at Monty,s Oughtibridge following a spell at the fire station. I think she was called May. I went to laws all the time but when i wanted a re-spray of my chopper or grifter bob made me rub it down with wet and dry in the body shop,,,he would spray my bikes up great but i would to know how bob is doing at moment,, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard PX5 Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 The company I worked for bought a Duple Dominant Leopard from George. It was cream with the orange stripe and immaculate inside and out. Cant remember the registration but think it had 16P in it. George was a really nice bloke. the coach was MNA 16P ans had a sister bus MNA 15P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
