Hope you’ve opted out the 10hr night working rule with starting at 3am !!
I think we have, all our drivers start early mornings etc

I’ll be covering for someone while they have there day off as I don’t normaly do long distance yet.
When you say restaurant you mean like costa and that?
Birmingham to Yorkshire… Long distance… God help us.
I think you’ll make it back quite easily if your on an early start but if you are stuck in traffic for long periods or have an incident that holds you up, there is Moto Trowell Jc 25-26 M1 (make sure you have Moto app on your phone for offers), Leicester Forest East is the next one down just before M69, then closer to Brum there is Hopwood Services.
There is usually WH smiths I pay in there.
I would of maybe just made it back if I did 10 hours driving but I had to do an extra trip which added 2 hours driving plus like 2 hours other work lol so had no chance making it.
I see well weatherby is a decent services, especially for a Moto as the showers are usually shocking but they were spotless last time I went there. I usually have a gregs or something off the Moto app at night then in the morning use my voucher in the morning at costa.
Ryan090:
18 tonner mate why ■■ Are you perving on me aha
No not all. Just wondered. Could have been anything from a puddle jumper to a 44 tonne artic.
I would expect you back easy off that load.
He’s had a good teacher at hanging the job out
Sounds to me like he’s getting cab happy and wanted a night out to dip his toes so to speak.
Birmingham to Yorkshire and a night out■■? The bunk is for your bag, not sleeping matey!!
Quite bizarre!

you could’ve stayed in the lorry park in Wetherby town centre next to Morrisons. A lot cheaper than them ■■■■■■■■ services and all the pubs,takeaways just a footstep away from your cab door

If he’s on an analogue card he wants to be back for certain
If some of you think I could of made that back easy then I think you must be rolling without a tacho lol.
From the yard it was 4.20 down, had to load, then 1 hour journey to the drop point to unload, then an hour back to get loaded again, then an hour back to unload, plus it was all handball so I didn’t finish till half 5. Which took it to a 15 hour shift.
