I tramped for 30 years, always away all week, and in the early days sometimes for months at a time. I decided to pack in in two years ago and I haven’t done a night out since then. It means the work I do when I do work (I only work six months a year now) is boring, generally pretty much the same thing every day, but there is very little interesting work to be done nowadays anyway, and doing nights out in some UK MSA doesn’t really do it for me. I enjoyed tramping back in the day, but life is different now and I can’t see myself going back to it.

no , rugby t/stop tonight , I’ve had a shower tonight 
( no baby wipes ) , a cup tea& a corned beef salad ( no Yorkie bar ) , I’ve then bells hill , eastkilbride & Edmonton , so hopefully will night out at depot and go home for night & down to Edmonton on thurs morn ( looking very tight on driving ) but a scribble on a printout . should solve that issue
then 2 weeks time and I hand my spurs ( high viz ) up
nb this could all be a bit of a dream though as every time I open my eyes I see pink Lorries 
Yeah Doze,if the driving time is off either take the card out or scribble on a print out.
Stobarts Top Driver and most fuel efficient.
By the way: It’s always clever to put it on a public forum that you bend the rules if it suits. Also a good driver would park up before.
But hey ho, the Scotts drive on the other side of the road anyway.
Am I the only only concerned about Dozy’s dreams of pink lorries more than his pre planned infringements??
