Fraser Eagle

Roy i am now going to put you right on Robinsons they were taken over by Holdsworths in 1947 who still own them today and they are just a subsidary company .
The coaches are not green anymore they are dark bue with yellow Robinsons name on them .
Holdsworths are a very big multi millionaire company and i have spent many nights out with their daughter when she comes to Gt Harwood to do buisness with them they did have the Holdsworth name on them but it was a mistake so Mr Holdsworth had them take it off suprising who and what i do know but i dont publish my private life to all and sundry on here dont pay to let everyone know what i am up to but i live life to the full here today maybe gone tomorrow.
 
Coach trips to Holdsworth hotels are a major part of Robinsons business and at least 2 of their drivers have gone on to be hotel managers.
The one who manages their Torquay hotel (Abbey Lawn) is making a very good job of it.(based on my visit 3yrs ago)

Think Robinsons are still going Bob, Green and Black livery, they do mostly tour holidays now, along with the likes of Wallace Arnold, or Wigan Airways as they were know, although I think they may have merged with another company know but not sure

Roy Alan retired in 1967 went to live in Malta and he died round about 1975 if my memory serves me right.

Since this thread is about Fraser Eagle I feel the need to say that this refers to Alan Robinson and not Alan Dyson (owner of Fraser Eagle)

It is but a thin line between ownership and directorship
EN for Business - Fly like an eagle
extract-
Dyson is now sole owner of the original group businesses, although management have stakes in some recently-formed subsidiaries. Dyson very much takes a back (non-executive), seat in the running of the business nowadays, according to Dean: “It has to be quite a clinical relationship because otherwise it can get quite sentimental at times.”
 
alan was the owner when they were at tanpits
but is now a mere director and has been for some time
as the whole op was taken out of his hands and run by accountants
 
Well coming back yesterday from spuggies there was coach transfer from lockerbie to lancaster train stations and it was Frazer Eagle doing it. Also there was frazer eagle management consultants hanging around making sure you got on the right coach. I didnt travel on the Frazer Eagle coach .. it was full .. went on one that they'd hired in their name.
 
yes its true .fraser eagle in administration ..but its not down to credit crunch just poor bad management .
