Eddie spotting? A clever marketing move by Mr Stobart who was determined to raise the profile of long distance hauliers. So he insisted on smartness for his drivers and vehicles - and all his trucks had individual girls' names. Hence his company became a household name, thanks to the interest this generated. Name one other truck company*?
Knights Of Old, Prestons Of Potto, Pullun, Leicester heavey Haulage, Heanor to name a few.
I like aeroplanes and i have hung around the odd fence now and again. however i do not own a step ladder nor do i own a Thermos, theres no bored bird sat in the car cos shes at home looking after the 5 kids. I blame me dad personally for my love of all things (well most things) and i couldnt tell an airbus from a Boeing nor could i tell the various marks etc so not all of us are total geeks!
I do like cranes though
