got a call from boss on fri saying other driver had rung to say he was going to be late as hed hit traffic by the univesity hosp ,notts and was now stuck in trafficon a52 near radcliffe on trent, and could boss ring me and warn me to turn left at saxondale roundabout and head down a46 instead of heading out on a52,a453 then onto a42 as traffic was bad going out that way.
fair dos for warning me
but what the zb was he doing on that road , hed left glasgow and was comming back to base at grantham 
: 
me and mate in other truck recon hes up to his old tricks of filling his pockets by going on long detours but as hes bosses pet nothin will be said 
the thing drivers will do for a few xtra hrs o/t 
we got one like that at our place
maybe he was trying to avoid ques on A1 at Newark so he went thru Notts then got stuck in another jam
or he was shopping in Notts
