Guys driving bare truck/bus chassis down the motorway, with just a driver's seat attached. Wonder why? Any other recollections?
Think it was mainly on British leyland vehicles taking them to the cab fitting plant rather than cabs coming to the chassis build plant or Leyland buses going to the coach builders ..when it was legal to drive them like that ...Not now for sure . I remember seeing the drivers sat in the seat clad in bulky raincoats when it was chucking it down , not even sure if they even had seat belt either . Come to think of it they probably bus chassis going to coach builders .
I was thinking you dont see the little white waxy flowery type things on privet hedges anymore ,but your suggestion trumps mine .
That old man that waits outside the school, wearing an adult sized school uniform. Or was that just a Norfolk thing?

Yep - back in the 1950s I used o see them all the time - I lived close to the A59 on the route from the Leyland factory to the docks at Liverpool - going for export I guess to have their bodies fitted when they got there.
Sadly not where I live ! Tarquin is too artistic to do any heavy lifting and Jasmine doesn't like the colour or texture of the orange bags
Those chaps and chapesses that used to magically pop up unexpectedly and say hello hello hello, or evening all. Some used to have a proper Charlie upright bicycle with a bell on it. Ozziedog,,,,,,,,,,and kids used to ask them the time , then run away scared
