Wednesday report

Here we go then - back in the house on a Wednesday. Am I upset at losing 20 squid? NO - Why I hear you all cry , because tommorrow (Thursday) I am picking up a BRAND NEW SPANKING NICE SMELLING LORRY WOOOOOOO HoooOOOOOOOO.

The day yesterday was spent traing on the new digital drivers cards and how to drive this mighty beast I am getting.Could this be the cure for my 'mauvaise esprit' of late - I bloody well think it might just.I had only two drops and was in frost bound Cheshire.Where the mist and fog was clinging to the branches of trees.I will do a cold weather page as there is a cold snap on the way,but first let me drive up to Head Office and pick up the new truck...........

We did get to Whitby last weekend - to much to write down here so pop along to the photograph page and check it out for yourself

Here's the weekend report

I got one , thats right I got a brand spanking new plasticy smelling new lorry - as far as I am concerned I work for the best haulage firm in the UK at the moment . It was so new I even had to take the plastic off the seats and bed. Check this that Ive not had since I started -

Air con , fully automatic , picks up Radio one going through Tebay , handsfree phone and 56 mph.

Due to the reporting restrictions on me at the moment I can't show you any pictures but I can point you to the Renault site to show you what I have - its the French site , why? because I can read it and its much more fun and also because I have spent most of the night going around French toy shops looking for di cast lorrys - Heres some text from the site and the link-

Nouveau tableau de bord : affichage numérique de la vitesse du véhicule, unique sur le marché, et commande sous le volant de la boîte de vitesses robotisée Optidriver+.
