got a phonecall yesterday afternoon from agency asking if i would like to run trailers and units from depot to an hgv repair and test centre. the strt time 1930 so no problem i said to them.
the first run was no probs ,it was a 40ft box with a broken tail lift .got that dropped off and picked a repaired one and back to depot ang got that parked up. tm says ok,here is keys for another volvo fm12,taqke this to repair place with another 40ft box but pick up different unit and trailer.he said just ask the mechanic whats ready.
arrived at repair place to find i had to do another blind side reverse to park trailer,job done into office and hand over keys. got handed keys for an old r plate renult 4x2 and told to take back the tri axle curtainsider.
got into unit and thought this will be interesting,never driven one before . it turns out it has one of these slap over boxes which took me a couple of miles to figure out seeing as i have only ever driven a 4 over4 range box before.
it was the biggest heep of junk iv ever driven but i still enjoyed it as it was a different type of unit and gearbox that i am atleast a wee bit aquainted with .
all in all,although i was only doing short hops (50mile round trip) i thoroughly enjoyed myself and itwas good getting to uncouple and recouple about 6 or 7 times in one shift .
looking forward to next phonecall from agency already
