Hello everyone,
Dodgy Permit, thankyou for corecting me (my spelling isn’t great). Tesco is crap, not Stobarts.
As to your queston over pay, I worked for Tesco for about 2 years ) and the pay was crap. I was getting about £4.50 an hour.
I woundn’t wish anyone to work for Tesco.

Spotters wouldn’t be spotters anymore if they started driving the ■■■■ things

I saw that fella on the Immingham by pass today. I waved but he didn’t wave back. He must be a lurker on TNUK and we’ve all hurt his feelings.
