I hate to seem cynical and see lots of pies go to waste.

But most of us will be out in the road running around like headless idiots dodging idiots on the roads doing their “last minute xmas shopping” or imprisoned in some soulless RDC waiting room for hours on end during the given times (Mon/Tues) the pies are on offer, so I doubt many of us will be able to indulge in your generous offering.
So might I suggest you bring the delicious mince pies over to the gatehouse & setup a table from about 3-4 am, with a large thermos of coffee and the mince pies.
This should generate a greater up take of your offer & ensure you get to meet everyone, as drivers arrive for their shift start times.

PS bring your thermals, it probably gets cold that early in the morning

With all those grocer’s apostrophes, you would have thought a satsuma or two would have been on offer at the very least…

My lads getting a model Stobart truck the wife a Stobart hoover mother in law a stobart map of eastern european countries a pair of flip flops, aldi bag and shellsuit. Me Im getting a mince pie off the agency if there still in the office at 15.30 Christmas eve.

Which is more laughable!

We get a AU$100 gift card and naturally, a barbecue. Those who didn’t have any sickies also get their ten days annual sick leave paid out, this year should be around AU$2240.
