UK PROFESSIONAL DRIVERS FORUMS EX-PAT BRITISH TRUCKERS (INTERACTIVE)
1

After two great weeks (but very expensive) in England, it’s back to work early thursday for me and a drop in Wilmington MA at 8.00am. My company is pretty good and have kept my truck off the road in my absence, doing some routine maintenance on it then today I get a call from the head fitter saying he has fitted a new water pump and only the sleeper section has heating untill the weekend so I will have to open the partition to warm the driving compartment, this I do not mind but to road test the truck for a day he let the dirtiest pig on the company use it for a day so I will need to go in armed with garbage bags :cry:

When I was in England there was a suprise party for me and some old Swift Service, Fed Ex, Tesco and Concorde Roadshow drivers came, some I had not seen since the 70’s. I had the best night of my life and will remember it till I die. :smiley:
