WE HAVE ALREADY BEEN RE-ACQUAINTED WITH TONY VERNON-SMITH BY HIS "SIGNING-ON " LETTER FROM LEONARD SUNLEY.
Although we still await tales of frivolity and daring-do from his years at the Hodge, (not too far away we hope) we will have to make do for the present with this photo of one of his many sales, a Terex TS-24 to P.J.Conway, of Woodbridge in Suffolk. As Tony puts it……
" Hello Ed. P.J.Conway is the company, and Eddie Dye was the Plant Manager, and they had the contract at Blue Circle, Northfleet, in Kent. They were a very large user of Terex equipment, TS-24`s, 72-81`s, and a load of rigids.
I think this photo is taken on the site of what is now the Blue Water shopping complex.
Regards, Tony"
A slightly more youthful looking A.H.V-S than todays model, but still easily recognisable !!
