π A BLOODY GREAT AGQUIP STORY TODAY... π
One of the best things about being at AgQuip today wasn't actually about selling truck licences at all.
It was about running into the past.
I've had quite a few people come up to me today because they've seen "Clarke's Transport Wauchope" on the door of the mighty Una Veronica.
And yes... I'm now based in Tamworth and Clarke's Heavy Vehicle Licensing services Tamworth and the whole of North West NSW.
But I'll always be a Wauchope boy at heart.
The reason that Clarke's Transport Wauchope is still on the truck β and the reason the colours look the way they do β is because they're my grandfather Earl Clarke's colours. Una Veronica was his wife- my grandmother, and without her Clarke's Transport wouldn't have been a thing at all.
And today I had a particularly special reminder of where all this started.
A bloke came up to me at AgQuip with his little boy and told me that he recognised the colours on the truck.
His father β his little boy's grandfather β was Allan Duck from Comboyne, who used to drive trucks for my grandfather Earl many years ago.
We had a great yarn about the old days, trucks and the transport industry.
And now here we are, all these years later β I'm carrying on the family trucking tradition, and his son is running two trucks of his own down in the Hunter Valley.
How bloody good is that?
Three generations, trucks, families and a connection that goes all the way back to my grandfather.
The trucking industry really is a bloody small world!
Thanks for coming up and having a yarn today mate β it was an absolute pleasure.
And to all my old Wauchope friends who have spotted the truck and come over to say g'day...
Yes, I'm still a Wauchope boy. β€οΈ
I'm based in Tamworth these days, and I'm bloody proud to be servicing Tamworth and the whole of North West NSW.
But...
π For all my Wauchope people β stay tuned.
There might just be a bit more Clarke's action heading back your way in the next few months...
Watch this space. π
And if you're at AgQuip tomorrow, come and find me at SITE Q30.
The mighty Una Veronica will still be there.
Come and have a yarn with Uncle Deano. ππΎ
