So many questions, so little time

Or warn myself that I’m approaching a BTS filthy green artic that will pull out on me when I’m 18 inches from his back doors, then drive at 52 for at least the next five miles?

Or why is it that when I’m feeling like risking it to the next Shell station, as I think I may be just about to scrape it back on fumes, and leave a bit more in tomorrow, my bowels will lead me to a BP that you have to drive all over the show to find the lav?

Or why can the idiots that turn up after me think that every lane is ok for parking at Frankley?

Why hasn’t Vanessa Feltz been murdered by the sort of truck driver that Jeremy Clarkson encounters?

Why are there so many switch blanks in cabs? What could that many switches actually do? It’s a DAF LF, not a Boeing 747

Why is it that France (and most of Western Europe) grinds to a halt when their nine aircraft controllers go on strike? But we as an industry roll over and grease up our buttocks every day in readiness for our next new shafting. As an island, we could bring this country to its knees. Look at the taxi drivers in London a few weeks back. Just imagine what we could do if one day we said, balls to it, every HGV is going to stop wherever it is and take a 45 at exactly 12 noon.

Sometimes you just gotta get it off your chest! :smiley: :smiley:

Why is it that however tight you do the straps up on the curtains, at least one of them will come undone and start flapping around before you reach your destination?

Why is it you get a clear run for hours but hit a traffic jam five minutes from your delivery point?

On a similar note:
Why when after doing all your curtain buckles up do you re-tighten one that is a bit on the loose side which causes all the others around it to come loose and you have to start all over again. Plays havock with my made up OCD illness.

Also why when you come to undo them have a couple deceided to get tighter all on their own and nearly take your fingers off.

Why do commercial tv programmes have an advert break five minutes after it has started ?Presenters must be over worked ?

Also (and my last one for today as Nove has set the benchmark and I’m not competing).

Why does the agaency call you for a Saturday shift after 6PM on Friday when your convinced they wont be calling and have settled in for a night on the ■■■■ with the missus followed by some close encounters of the vadge kind. Now I have to have a chuffin early night…

Why oh why is it that you can be driving on the motorway and not overtake anything for miles but get within a mile or so of your required exit and hey presto,slower moving vehicle,stay behind increasing the journey time by all of 10 seconds :imp:

Ha ha ! That’s what off buttons are for.

Arrive at the unloading yard and there are about six fork lifts driving about and goods in staff floating around.
You pull in at the gate,they see you coming, and if by magic they all vanish on a tea or ■■■ break.
Or the old chestnut “Sorry mate,you will have to wait,we are busy.”
You are the only lorry there.

Agree! :grimacing:

Why do donuts have holes in the middle? If we like the taste surely we’d eat the (w)hole thing! :laughing:

Why is it that car driver DO NOT indicate when turning right at a roundabout when their indication helps you yet indicate when they are leaving a roundabout but no one is there to see it yet when you’re cruising along and the only other car on the road overtakes and after half a mile indicates in when no one cares.

Why do I still struggle with roundabouts after two years of driving?

Without sitting in the passenger seat and getting you to commentate that is going to be a hard one to answer
