NINETEEN-YEAR-OLD Andrew Hayward is a great credit to his dad. He is Hotpoint's transport controller and must be one of the youngest holders of the Certificate of Professional Competence. He is following in father's footsteps because Brian Hayward, managing director of National Carriers, was formerly Hotpoint's director of distribution.
Brian is justly proud, too, of his son Stephen, who at 25 is manager of the Midland BPS Chesterfield branch and, of course, holds the Certificate of Professional Competence. He drove for Hotpoint for 18 months before joining Eastern BRS as a traffic clerk at Wisbech.
As I mentioned last year (November 10), 20-year-old Mark Hayward dutifully showed a nominal interest in transport by working as a night loader at National Carriers' Fashionflow depot in Camden, London, before going to America to play professional tennis.
Brian has his leg pulled because he gained his Certificate of Professional Competence through grandfather rights. But what is so funny about that? He is a grandfather.
