TheMissus:
If you have an office job just use analogue tachos to record work days, name date, write office over reg and record hours, that’s what I used to do when I had both. Trying to enter digi entries for this could take ages and easy to get it wrong.

thanks TheMissus,

Can I not keep a log book of a sort instead or would I need to get hold of the analogue cards?
Agency wise now it might have to hold of next week. The work is 15 hour days so I thought i could do every fortnight and compensate my time at the end of the following weekend but Im not so sure? does this make sense:

can I start my weekly 45 hour rest from end of shift friday? im thinking not it has to be the Saturday?
if so long story short I reckon I can do a shift maybe 8-10 hours every fortnight max. I may well hang fire and look for full time first as im not in an immediate rush. I just didnt want to start going rusty with my driving!

I was told to satisfy Vosa, should I need to, I needed to use analogue tachos. You can buy a box very cheaply on eBay.

You can start your weekly rest any day, you just need to make sure that over the whole peroid you’ve had your full rest.

Thanks again will check out eBay. Can I start my weekly rest after my last shift on Friday so for example my weekly rest begins from Friday at 3pm or can it not start on a day when a shift has been done?

24

Yes, you can start after a weekly rest after a shift, just as you do a daily rest period, it’s just a longer one.

Would it also help if he took all paperwork with him in a lidl carrier bag, and would it be too forward to limp in, or would the agency rather provide him with there own brand of limp do you recon.
