Saturday 8 May 1993 (approx. 1600) – The King Street lay-by in Mildenhall could barely occupy two full sized vehicles and when two vehicles were in the lay-by others had to load on the road alongside. In this view is Neal’s Travel H475 KSG, a Carlyle bodied Iveco (Ford) Transit, employed on the town service in Mildenhall and out to the adjacent villages. Behind it is Premier Travel Services 371 (G371 REG), a Plaxton Expressliner bodied Volvo B10M, working the 1445 Norwich to Oxford National Express service 747. Loading on the road is Coach Services Limited of Thetford EGV 190T which had just arrived from Kings Lynn on service 298. In the background, just left of the tree, Ron's mobile fish and chip van can be seen parked. For many years he served the outlying villages around Mildenhall, certain days to certain villages almost to a regular timetable just like the buses. He would travel a route and stay a while at regular places (like the Barton Mills Village Hall car park Thursday teatime). At smaller places people would be waiting by the roadside at a certain time (like at Lackford). I read somewhere that he called it a day around March 2013.
