I wonder how long £550 bought of a vehicles time? Half a day, 8 hours? Bearing in mind the cost of fuel used…£25, I would say that was a reasonable days earnings. Especially as most of them would have gone up the road once done with.
I see most of them were Kent hauliers, Swains, Salvatori and Stobbies.
A pathetic attempt at reproducing a non effectual situation. What a waste of our dosh!
