I used to drive for Neely's transport, they moved from Blakeland st, b/green. mr Bert was in charge, also Don and another older guy were in the garage. My father also worked for them. We did drive some old trucks then. I lived on the radleys until about 1970.

Hi Stars nice to hear from you. I know during the time that you worked there Neely's had some right old bangers. The only thing about them was that they were all the same colour, a dirty yellow as I remember. SB
Hi sb Yes you are correct the trucks were a dirty yellow. I remember an old Thames trader parked in the cabin car park, the hand break slipped off and it rolled down the hill and into the concert room. No before you ask i did not park it there lol.
Hi Lyn I am fine thanks, hope you are all ok. Stars Eric
