BHX Freight 1970s-1980s

Did you know any of the people I mentioned - I think the guy at RH freight was called Bob and might have smoked a pipe

I certainly remember Bob Woolley, I used to work for Chris Bedford and remember Dateline (but didnt have many dealings with them). As for RH, I remember Judith but not the others. I do remember very well the UKACC functions (especially the quizzes and Ladies Night). Being honest this was the main way I socialised with the other Agents as I had a fair amount going on outside work.

No. We worked together at Hill & Delamain. He was the Branch Manager and I was on Exports. Worked together for about 3 years until he fell ill and left. Shame really as he was a nice bloke to work for.

Enjoyed a good curry - are you still in touch with Chris, I would like to remove my comment #23 of 4.47pm but can't edit it !

Unfortunately I haven't seen Chris for a number of years. Last time I saw him was in Solihull using a mobility scooter but I didn't get a chance to speak to him.

Mobility scooter - that's bad news - I reported my own post #23 so it can be removed.

Chris and Paul (DCAB Manager) took me for my first curry at the Ellora in Knowle and I never looked back since.

Chris, Steve (DCAB & SITIR Sales) and me used to go to Norman Green Sports Centre in Solihull to circuit and weight train. Chris always struggled with his weight.
