As it’s a notorious booze cruise I suspect someone was drunk & smoking in bed

I was due to catch it, but I had to wrestle a tiger away from a bus load of school children.

That’s the problem with drivers these days, always getting distracted from actually getting on with the job. :imp:

Yeh right! I know you are lying, we all know the kids are off school :unamused:

But more importantly…are you ok, you weren’t badly mauled were you ?

The school children were on a mission of mercy to provide entertainment for all the lorry drivers kicking themselves for missing the ferry.

I’m not one to moan, one of my arms is missing but in sure it will turn up

that’ll of probably of been the helicopter i heard passing my house last night then :laughing: :laughing:

The helicopter it was delivering the school children’s instruments and stuff for the impromptu concert to entertain the drivers

Classic :laughing:

I suppose you’ll be using that as a feeble excuse to get a day off now. :laughing:

And how can you call yourself a truck driver and say “not one to moan”

Light bulb!!!

I hadn’t considered booking a day off as it’s my right arm that’s gone astray so I could still change gear.

Now you mention it though

hi guys, can i ask wether the hull ferries are also a place for the hen/stag nights? was looking at some cheap deals to go to Bruge but dont want to spend the boat time with a load of drunken idiots…
