First job of the week is to tip St Neots, Cambridgeshire, then off down to Colchester cos I am gonna be running out of there this week.
Just what you want on a Monday morning, this sign and me sat nav telling me to go up there. Chanced it though and it paid off cos the site was up there.
Couldnt get onto the site cos the forkie hadnt turned up, and no one else could move the machine out of the way off the silo so wait for him or tip through the fence. Decided to tip through the fence.
Colchester plant where Im gonna be based this week
These guys had just tipped brand new silos there
Monday pm back to Cambridge very tight site to get into
Got really close to silo tho
Monday night parked at Birchanger services.
Tuesday morning tip Cambourne
2nd job, tip Uxbridge. Need to be up this street
The alternative entrance
Nice big site but forklift in way again.
Bet this is a boring job loads of waiting around according to the driver
One last job in Ipswich then park at orwell overnight, as mentioned in a previous post cracking truckstop, the pic doesnt do me tea justice!
Wednesday back to Colchester, then off to Kings Lynn, theres the silos how do I get to them?
Back to Colchester, then off to West Malling.
Over the QEII bridge
Got to the site late Wednesday no one there and gates locked so decided to stop here for the night, so could tip first thing.
Had to walk for ages to find a pub and when I did it was a bloody expensive one!£3.20 a pint and £11 quid for a meal!!!
Nice tho
Couldnt remember me way back from the pub. Decided to take a peek in one or two of the show homes.
At least I hope they were show homes, or else Im gonna be down as West Mallings most wanted peeping tom
There she is!
Hotel Daf
Up nice and early waiting for the site to open. These were the silos easy access, or so I thought!, that one was full so had to go across site to this one.
