Ralph Davies

Has anybody worked for these as a Dvr, i think they mostly do continental work,■■? it was Just a Blast from the Past N i thought i may try them when i leave Army.

They used to do alot of continental specialising in Russia and that area but most of their work is UK now. Ive never driven for them but spent time with some of their drivers abroad in the past and they all seemed happy with the job. There are a few of their drivers on here but its just a matter of catching them when they are home and on here. To get a job driving Euro land with a British firm these days is getting harder and even harder without euro experience, but still go for it you will never know unless you try. Good luck.

Cheers Paul. :slight_smile:

PM Taff, he works for them :wink:

They used to go as far as the Chinese border.

Dropped a couple of pallets into their yard a couple of weeks ago that were going to Malta, so they still go pretty far.

The drivers I’ve spoke to lately are not a happy bunch

well thats been updated cos it used to say 2 weeks away at a time.

And there lies the problem ad on website says week away in vehicles when you have you’re 24/45/66 hours off someone else is waiting for “you’re” truck to go off in, so when you return it might not be back till midnight and you got a 4am load todo in Gloucester , too much cab hopping or so I’m told
