TRIP: From left, Nigel Hatchman, of Eddie Stobart Ltd, with Liam and his dad, Steven
BRIDGWATER youngster Liam Pope had a dream come true when celebrating his sixth birthday in 1998.
Liam, of Stafford Road, was a huge fan of lorries - particularly Eddie Stobart - and was given a trip in an Eddie Stobart vehicle for his birthday.
His dad, Steven, orgaised the trip after noticing the vehicles on Bridgwater streets.
Mum Shirley said: “He really loved it.
“He has been into lorries ever since his grandfather introduced him to the (Eddie Stobart) fan club when he was three.”
