G’day Mushrooman - no I never worked for T & J - I remember dropping a pallet off at their yard once, thats about all I ever had to do with them.
I actually used to live just up the road from Dover, and spent many a happy time up on the cliffs over looking the harbour. For me there was a real ‘buzz’ about the place - I always enjoyed shipping out -and back in - didn’t matter to me if there was a Force 10 gale blowing - I still enjoyed it.
I used to say that I wanted my ashes to be scattered from the top of the cliffs - but having gone back there a couple of years ago, I’ve changed my mind. How times change - not a UK registered truck in sight - the magic had gone.
I’ve tipped / re-loaded at a few places in & Vienna, but I’ve never been to the St.Valentine parking you mentioned.
Cheers Keith
