Look on the bright side, they’re making you redundant soon,
that’ll give you chance to lose some weight so you don’t have to split couple tautliners.

Its when you get a close coupling trailer, usually a fridge because of the fridge unit hanging on the front. The gap between unit and cab is tight to get in, so checking that the trailer brake is applied nudge under the rubbing plate, but don’t go back far enough to click the pin, then hook up your lines, and then reverse the rest of the way under to get the pin, give a tug then do you legs and other stuff

That’s class 
Just one thing, how fat do you have to be to need to split couple a skelly
That’ll be the first of many things you aint heard of apart from on here then, can be a right weird bunch sometimes

To be fair he probably knew he was dealing with someone who rushes about so much he disregards the risk assessment,takes out a building,and then blames the van driver in a state of total brass neck,unashamed blame passing. Given this happened about a week ago,can you really blame him for being nervous about you split coupling? You’d probably have drove off without going back to set the pin,then blamed the trailer company for not making suzie connections strong enough
In fairness to tesco there is usually a sign at the gate saying no split coupling

yeah,along with another million signs telling drivers what they must/must not do, the problem being that if a driver stopped to read all these signs and notices they would still be there the following day

You’re a liar Dave; your sign says “No Tribbing”.

Means nothing to dozy
If you were a regular follower of “Carry on Trucking” staring dozy, you would know that he doesn’t take much notice of instructions/warnings.
I can’t wait for the next episode
Fantastic entertainment

All tribbers welcome at my gaff, in fact its more compulsory really.
So you don’t allow split coupling but actively encourage tribbing?
I thought they were the same thing?
