One of the Suttons drivers sat in the Glass works Despatch in 1991..ish, I am sure his name was Dave, he was a Union man for the drivers. Cracking bloke, always up for a laugh. Graham Sargent wrote the xmas sign in the window, he had several goes before he got it right.

Did Graham Sargent work at Georgia Pacific (formerly Stewart Edgar's) on the Three Sisters Ind. Estate in Bryn?

Yes Jim, I believe Graham did work there. If you look in the Glass Works Platt Bridge folder in the album you can see a photo of Graham driving a FLT.
