The chains on the front when there are no flaps fitted serve as a warning device. They warn other drivers this guy is only driving this truck because his 999bhp, Scanvolaf Supertoptrotter XF is in having another 12 spotlights fitted today. And anyway he gets paid so much, clears a grand a week, he has ran out of things to spend it on so has resorted to buying any old thing he can find to attach to the truck just to get rid of some of his fortune. Plus as he only works 27 hours a week he has loads of time on his hands and he once saw a Dutch truck with chains there so they must be a good idea.
So much time in fact he will be able to spend ages telling you about his experiences. How he just missed a certain ferry, he was booked on it but got pulled by the police and by the time he had finished holding the copper by the throat against the side of the trailer and disarming him he was to late to make the boat. He has had many a lucky escape, from exploding truck stops in Belgium to various tunnel disasters, Blanc, Gotthard, Channel Tunnel to name nut a few.
He has had cones placed around his truck, and the 1/2/3/4/5 bays either side, so he could get a good rest after running out of time in more RDC’s than you have ever visited, and the police threatened to arrest the manager/booking clerk/ office boy/shunter if his sleep was disturbed.
He has been over the Blanc with 54 tonne on and only had brakes on one wheel on the descent. He’s done Middle East so many times** he still has sand in his clogs. He’s done Russia, he was one of the first, and has also been 60 kms inside the Chinese border. He spent many a year doing Italy, 3 trips a week and usually cleared at either PratoJohn or Milaninni.
He is ex military, and when he says military he was based in Hereford but obviously can’t talk about it, nudge, nudge, wink, wink. In fact his old CO recently called him up and asked him to go out to Afghanistan/Iraq as they really need his expertise as they are struggling out there.
So take the chains as a warning and if he tries to start up a conversation just reply - “Buenos dias, nicht verstehen mon ami. Arrivederci.” He won’t understand a word of this as the furthest he has ever been is the Isle of Wight on a school trip when he was 11, and after hearing that will wander off muttering about bloody Poles and you will be safe.

i see him everyday
he works at our place,
I reckon he must be running bent as he works other places as well.
Mind you he does have two digi tacho cards because he also tells people how he cleverly reported one lost so he could get another one. Now he can run seven days a week and if he gets stopped by VOSa he just shows them whichever card he is using at the time. It’s a brilliant foolproof plan and they will never catch him.
Not sure how that one fits in with him only doing 27 hours a week but hey ho.

And I forgot to mention I once dropped a trailer across the front of the security hut in a Tesco rdc because they were taking to long to get me on a bay.And I had an urgent load to go back out to the Middle East.

TONY530I:
How often do Jenkinsons go on the ‘boat’, what a ■■■■!!! surprised he’s aloud them, truck pimping is heavily frowned upon there is it not!
i am led to beleive if a driver wants to pimp his truck at jenkinsons then it has to be funded out of his own pocket and he has to get any electrical fitting done by an electrician at the drivers expense too

Ah. Now then.
I did once bring Sainsbury Hoddeston to a standstill by parking across their gate because they would give me my notes without putting two pallets back on . . . . . .
