Diesel Gypsy (Old Bill) Here is an excerpt from an email we received through our RTIC page: "I am a retired trucker, (Truckie) living in Canada. I have just started to do my own web site, to help pass the time. Friends have asked me to put down things or incidents that happened over the years. After scanning your Retired Truckie section, I would like to offer you some of my 50 years over the road information, on trucking, from the other side of the world." 'OLD BILL' William (Diesel Gypsy) Weatherstone Elliot Lake, Ontario, Canada. Thank you very much Bill. We have been in touch and have began a series of Bill's Stories for all to read.
