I’ve took it from Wakefield - East Kilbride - Edmonton-east Kilbride - Edmonton this week , I often wonder wouldn’t it be more sensible to manufacture in Scotland what you drag up there , and vice- versa London - East Kilbride , I’m no expert on the stuff but it often looks like I’m dragging a load down from Scotland the same as the one I’ve just dragged up , assuming it’s brackmills , often in there
Used to collect…
Fully loaded trailer of full fat Coca-Cola from Wakefield, drive it down to Enfield, unload it then reload with exactly the same product and take it back to Wakefield.
No idea how many motors were doing the same run but I know I wasn’t the only one doing it.
Perhaps the sugar tax has kicked in?

Think Wincanton won it from Stobarts but struggled to cope so now the two work side by side almost

Mostly Stobarts and Maritime.
Do MJD still do CC?
Sorry didn’t mean to sound like an advert “T&C’s apply” !
Do MJD and Sons still have a part of the Coca Cola contract, there that’s better

yes do.But most in Enfield and Sidcup.
Does Sidcup still have the queue of lorries blocking the road back to the roundabout? What a ■■■■ hole. Those guys at the gate couldn’t move if you shoved a cattle prod up their arse…

ND when was the last time that you went there? Only asking cos, because of this thread, was going to post a harsh comment about the place, cos it used to be the pits. Went onto GMaps to have a look and couldn’t believe the improvements they have made to the site, bearing in mind I haven’t collected there for well over 20 years.
Wasn’t like this when I collected there
google.fr/maps/@51.413441,0 … 312!8i6656
We used to go into the site, or was it out, off the Cray Road, hated the place
