:angel: Yes we called them "Hanks" too, I have a little story about one of those lorries.
When we lived in Dymoke St, we were next door to a factory and there were always "Hanks" parked outside or house picking up or dropping off goods. One day while playing house in the gutter with my friend, making mud pies, I took off my best Fur coat (a hand me down from a posh friend of Mom's) so as not to get it dirty and hung it on one of the hooks that were all around the edge of 'the flat bed' for securing it's load. Well we were so in to playing our game that we never notice the "hank" take off coat and all. Well the belting I got of Mom for losing my Fur coat put me of Fur coats for ever.
