Welcome to Truck and Bus Forum, Tomdhu.

Leyland apprentices seem to have colonised the World - I know that the bus companies in Hong Kong were largely run by Leyland apprentices (at least as far as the engineering side was concerned).

I'm looking forward to reading some of your anecdotes about your times.

I joined Vauxhall in 1965 and ended up on the Bedford side.

Later (after leaving Vauxhall/Bedford in 1982) I travelled widely (being based in Denmark), visiting the bus companies in Singapore and Hong Kong, truck manufacturers in Scandinavia (well, Volvo) and the UK, as well as automatic transmission repairers in Australia and New Zealand and train operators in Australia.
