BuzzardBoy:
Downton’s regularly used to send 10 or more a week empty from Gloucester to Monchengladbach, Macfarlanes also sent a similar amount out empty from Leeds.

Remind me again what happened to Macfarlanes :smiley:

:laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

For Downton’s,There was actually a good reason for it, it was dedicated vehicle stuff for the OK magazine, and “I think” they were paid a round trip rate for he job, so it was worth their while doing it…

Macfarlanes however i’m not sure what they were doing… I was talking to a guy one night who was on for Mac’s but in an old KJ Sewell Low Ride Volvo i think it was(Mac’s bought KJS out didnt they), he tipped Madrid with Car Parts on a Friday, and Mac’s ran him back up to Monchengladbach to reload Tuesday… :open_mouth: :unamused:

1632 km each way to pickup an empty trl and return to base in a 2624 merc

To JJ72.

my mate colin from frank white trans ran from zarafshan to wovlerhampton to load…5780km. and he says he doesnt want any prizes :sunglasses:

Hi crankcase :smiley:
Most the guys on that zarafshan run went as far as Poland for a back load or Novo Cheboksary in Russia to load man hole covers for England. It was a matter of keep coming till we find you something decent :smiley:

he wouldn’t be getting any - that’s around 900 kliks less :stuck_out_tongue: go look it up K-R-A-S-N-O-Y-A-R-S-K :smiley:

jj sherlock says u cant enter the competition. the question clearly stated "how far have YOU gone to load?. and your reply started with and i quote…"i sent a ", which means that you didnt go!therefore your entry to the post is invalid. so even though colin went 900 or so kms less than the three axled pig or whoever else u sent. it wasnt you.so no prize for you im afraid.sorry.and as for spelling the place name out in capitals like that ,its a bit childish for a man in your position :neutral_face: :neutral_face:

jj, colin already stated he didnt want any prizes!. and he is the leader in the furthest run to load that has been on this forum so far.

a little bit of what u see in the picture perhaps

red mist all the way from you know where. or maybe not because u didnt go!

crank case:

he isn’t though, i aren’t and neither are you - this is a bit pointless really, and i’m always a bit wary of people who post at times like 02:12, it a bit stalkerish :open_mouth: :smiley:

firstly "bullit how can u award 30-15 for just repeating a previous statement, i want the fourth official to have a look at that call!!

jj, being awake at 2am in the morning is pretty normal for someone working nights(me).are u telling me stg have never taken on a job where the driver doesnt work nights. u must have worked at andrew wisharts…lol.

as for stalkerish?, the only stalker i know is sherlocks deer stalker. maybe youve spent too much time behind that desk and are becoming paranoid. you need to get out more , travel a bit, visit places like this

ps, while your there could u get me some more pics, thanks.
game, set and match, crank case.
