I had the one on the A11, Carls burgers, march up to to me and demand I move when I was having a 45 as he reckoned I was stopping passing traffic from seeing him. I suggested in future he parked his salmonella wagon in the spot I was taking if that was the case, first berth in the layby. It’s not rocket science…I was parked up at Dragonville estate ?, (the one with the big Asda opposite) near Durham one night.
I got up next morning, and was getting a quick wash in the cab and a cup of tea, got a knock off this guy looking a bit ■■■■■■ off, telling me I HAD to move as I was parked on his pitch.
I told him I did not HAVE to do anything and to go and [zb] himself…thing is I only was going to be about 5 mins, and if he had asked me a bit more politely I would have told him this.
Anyway me being me I sat another 20 mins, and made him wait, put key in, and…flat battery.
I got out and said, ‘‘Hard luck mate she won’t start’’
Got another knock from him 2 mins later, looked out and he was holding a set of jump leads.
He got me started and I had to eat a [zb] big chunk of Humble pie, and thank him.
Was at the same place a few nights later, but parked just behind ‘‘his’’ pitch this time…he even gave me a wave next morning, so I bought a cup of coffee from him…I don’t think that he spat in it btw.
That humble pie never gets any better!
