My Dad was Bill MacAskill who was a director at Riddochs from 1976-1990.

Colin, was that lorry owned by Geordie Harrold before you? I remember him coming in to Mosstodloch around the mid 80s with a similarly painted Foden...or maybe it was you?! Comment left on 21 September 2021 at 16:51 by LEWIS MacASKILL
