I also recall references to 'Londre Camp' as a sort of staging post, and 'Marlborough Country' where the only way through red tape was to offer cigarettes.
Wasn't the speeding ticket virtually free?
Thanks for the replies you have saved a little of what's left of my sanity!
I have a copy of the Truckers/Istanbul trip somewhere on CD, I can post it to you and you are welcome to take a copy if you want, then send it back.
The Ralph Davies info you'll probably find on Trucknet, there was an entire thread (or 3) dedicated to that firm.
Just as an aside, a few years back when i was in Turkmenistan I swung in to a parking area and saw this........as you can see its re-registered on local plates.
I had been used to seeing some second-hand European trucks showing up (l.h.ds) but this was a bit more unusual
