Dozy dog walkers

I had loaded stone at a quarry and needed to reverse back in to the quarry.
The staff had opened the barrier to allow me to reverse back.
Two women who were walking dogs,were walking in an opposite direction along the lane by the quarry.
They then stop and talk by the barrier with about six dogs.
I was fully laden and the hazard lights were on.
I kept losing traction and spun out a few times on the hill going backwards.
They still stood there talking and stroking each others dogs.
Totaly oblivious to a 44 ton truck nearly knocking them over.
They would of heard my tyres spinning too.

And there was me expecting to read a thread about Toby parked in a secluded layby, and a over friendly gentleman wanting assisitance to find his dog in the bushes.

They must have been deaf as well as blind due to not hearing me tooting the horn and me waving my arms out of the cab to gesticulate the order to move out of the gateway.
They had the whole lane to gossip and chat but decide to walk over and block the barrier to the quarry.

Personally, I wouldn’t have moved a inch, fair enough reversing over the two women, but never the dogs!!! lol :smiley:

I was expecting to read about our old mate ‘dozy’ on a career change and asking us how he can cut a few miles off a dog walk so he can get home earlier, and carve THAT job up with all the others :laughing: :laughing:

Was there no way you could’ve spun the wheels and sprayed then with mud?

:laughing: Something like “I ain’t picking up crap on the way around and carrying to a green bin. Can I post it in the post box instead?”

I nearly read it as Toby dogging in a quarry with 2 women :smiley:

Don’t think dozy is qualified to walk dogs

Yeh :smiley: , and he says he has been warned not to mention any of the dog’s names on social media sites,or he will get disciplinary action against him again :laughing:

This is all I needed to read to know what follows isn’t an example of professioanlism.

So whats wrong with that, is your day any more important than theirs.

I was fully laden and the hazard lights were on.

So…

I kept losing traction and spun out a few times on the hill going backwards.

Oh dear, try diff lock, or one of those buttons that bounce the lift axle a bit to improve traction.

They still stood there talking and stroking each others dogs.

This would have sounded better if they where walking their cats :wink:

Why not apply park brake, switch off engine, remove keys, lock vehicle and proceed to ask the ladies if they could stand clear whilst you perform this manouvre that your struggling with, also they might let you stroke their dogs for a bit, (again this would have been better if they where walking their ■■■■■■■).

:wink: :wink:

2 women,a big sweaty truckie frantically gesticulating,sitting a throbbing machine with big hard vibrating pistons pumping up and down,a man made structure rising into the air opening up the women like a large red and white phallic symbol so that he can enter sacred ground and tip his big heavy load,secluded country location with a few panting animals involved,and a few spectators looking out the windows as well.im sure ive seen a film like this when i was in amsterdam last year,but the name escapes me…possibly someone reading this can remember the title?.. :wink:

Thanks for your input Dipper Dave.I do not have a diff lock.
It was raining and i was reversing up a hill.
If you were reversing on to a bay or ramp at a Rdc and some drivers could see what your intentions were but stood behind your trailer,you would be on Trucknet moaning about it.
The two ladies walked from an empty lane to stand in front of the quarry entrance.
It was their intention to cause a problem.
Why would reversing in to a quarry be not proffesional as you have said ?
I have weighed in,loaded and weighed out but there was no room to strap the load once leaving the quarry so the staff said i could strap down in a large area by the barrier.
What is the ladies day got to do with my day and your day?

In the battle so far between Dave and Toby, the honours are even. Irresistible force and unmovable object. Your move, Dave.

I would have got out walked up to them and said, MOVE,are you stupid not to see what I am trying to do

I would of ASKED :wink: them to move, along with giving their dogs a stroke .wishing of cource it was their ■■■■■■■ that were getting the lovin :grimacing:

hmmmm…so now its 2 WET women,refer to my previous post…this gets better and better now…im getting a bit twitchy here. :blush:
