M53 Junction 8 TruckstopI used to hang on the back of Bowater's newsprint lorries at age
16 when cycling from Falconwood, Welling, Kent to my first job in
Fleet Street in 1947. The newsprint lorries came from Sittinbourne
along Rochester Way (A2) across Blackheath and Greenwich heading for
Fleet Street. If anyone can point me to a photo they can have a
CD/DVD of my memoirs when I've added some photos.
