Unfortunately, the parasites have taken to using a stolen 7 1/2 t c/sider rigid and parking in alongside - blending in so to speak.
They either ■■■■■ your curtain alongside or rear entry and hand-ball tranship - relieve you of some of the load before departing.
.
Northampton / W-gap / Toddington & Cawley and a few others have been prime targets - predominantly northbound -
as most euros inbound come in loaded from the train /boat, and others are now backloading avin been darn saarfff mate.
Be aware of what/who is parked around you is all that can be suggested, a day cabber rigid, nighting out, may or may not be the giveaway :wink: .

Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder must’ve been busy…maybe had the geezer from Peters & Lee (remember them??) glueing up the patch and Roy Orbison sticking it on! BTW, the cut was between 3rd & 4th buckle from the back end, eye level…and our DGM went into a spaz as it wasn’t reported until Sunday night and not Saturday morning…they are asking if he did a proper walk around check now…might be a job on days soon!

Radar19:
One of our branded wagons got slashed open big time. He parked in a layby near Donny, woke up to find everything nicked.

Just off J4 M18? That area is notorious for diesel theft, those who we may not mention, come across the field in a 4x4 drain your tank and disappear into the night. Also there’s a layby near to Asda RDC that I got caught out in, as I wasn’t aware that the industrial estate was double yellowed (it wasn’t the last time I was there!).
