HGV Drivers

Who do I pay to be one of the clique ? Is there a set of rules? is it open to all? I knew a fridge engineer once, will that affect my chances?? so many questions…

What hair,i don’t have any,used that shampoo many years ago,wash and go,now it’s a quick polish in the mornings

I share your pain brother. It used to take longer to wash my hair than my forehead, now it’s the other way round.

I just went with the flow about 10 yrs ago and just shaved the lot off, after having no1s for about 5 years.
I’ve often been asked if it’s a choice or if I’ve lost my hair, I normally lie and say… ‘‘Choice, to make me look even harder than I already am’’ :laughing:

I think there is nothing that looks worse (apart from maybe.a toupee :laughing: ) than the classic Male pattern baldness look, with the bits on the side and back, Friar Tuck style…and don’t get me started on the classic Brit man combover. :unamused: :laughing: :laughing:

It used to bother me when it started to go in late 80s, but I just embrace it now, it don’t bother me in the slightest.
Maybe it helps, the fact I’m stunninglly handsome with it. :sunglasses: :laughing:

In my futile attempt to keep the forehead/hair cleaning ratio acceptable, I decided a ponytail was in order. Whilst it kept the ratio acceptable, I looked like a complete ■■■. Doesn’t help that I look like I’ve been beaten with an ugly stick so hard it broke.

If you have been peering through a windscreen since 1975 Brother, this qualifies you for the ’ old git ’ special discount for the hairy eared, Werthers original sucking mob.

Contact the clique administrator (me), and please provide evidence of bullying and other dreadful traits. The rules are straight forward and here are the main requirements;

  1. Ability to talk ■■■■■■■■.
  2. Deliberate and sustained baiting of Moderators.(Bonus points for trapping Diesel Dave & Tachograph).
  3. Zero mercy.
  4. Total loyalty to fellow clique members.

Please note. Refrigeration knowledge is advantageous, however excessive mentioning of all things chilled may lead to temporary suspension of the right to chat ■■■■■.

The first rule of the click is…

It’s Clique Btw … just saying- and I don’t think Clique is appropriate , because a clique gives the impression some how that the establishment approves or is involved. and that is not the case here… being bored I took a while tonight to look at the analytics and see who uses these forums less than ten people post regularly on contentious issues - but they have the highest post counts … and they talk among themselves a lot- off the 1.25 million page views this website gets a month they get the lowest actual unique visitor views per thread - the old boys in the Old Timers forum beat them hands down- and what we have in those threads and some in the PDF (This forum) is a few quality threads with information and interaction and not people trying to be the “big I am” and “I can post better than you” those threads get far more unique views than those done by the few.

Its quite simple… but for those somewhat what challenged out there, TruckNet has quantity of posts - it is easily the biggest out there, we don’t need to dilute the content to keep our stats - I am more than happy to lose a few 1000’s page views to keep the quality of content in here - because we value those who input in a positive manner well over those who post to simply play an online game . everyone has had fair warning - but in case you are hard of understanding let me spell it out

" This website exists to discuss, support and promote Drivers and discuss the haulage industry in the UK " its not here for your ■■■■■■ fantasies ,or for your to promote your political views - or how you bake cakes or any other nonsense- It is certainly not here to give any one a platform to be an internet warrior or hero - if you want to do all that trolling or other crap then Facebooks ~~~~> that way its full of it- we don’t want it here and like it or not we will not allow it here.

IF the above doesnt suit your view- then as we have said for the last 17 years ~~~> the door is over there, no one makes you come here - if our rules and the way this site operates isn’t for you simply don’t come here.

I will happily lose any one who posts 1000 posts of crap a month if I keep 1 member who posts 10 worthwhile and constructive comments

Still,saves us a fortune in having our hair styled,some of these hairy ones pay over £20 a time to have theirs styled,so in a way we are lucky,one thing i could never do is wear a syrup
