malmic:
They would be the round trip mileages on your time sheet which would be about right.
Not a fan of Tarmac but there mileage sheet was fairer than Tilcons
I should add the ones with S on them weren,t so good.
S stood for special but not in a good way.

Actually the Sheffield and Lichfield mileages were both 68 miles when I started Mick, ■■■■ Bentley then had a rethink and several places became closer. 
Also the 25 miles per hour went up to 28 and then 30, very slowly the very good pay scheme was chiseled away at over the years! Then, thanks to two certain drivers who commented that we were on too much money, STB knocked even more off and those two drivers then left the company as the money wasn’t as good then. Who ever said that driver’s were their own worst enemy eh? 
I first encountered the ‘magic S’ on tickets when I worked for Eric and did a bit for Tarmac out of Dene quarry, I had to break it to some OD’s who only ever worked from Ballidon what it actually meant when the companies combined haha!
