I bagseyed a spot 5 years ago, as did a few others.
Whether we’ll ever be offered a spot, bearing in mind our experience (ie zero in my case), is another matter.
But we’ll cross that bridge when we get to it :sunglasses: :laughing: .

as many people have said on here before nobody goes to russia and that anymore, i think your mate might be pulling your leg! come to think of it i’ve never even heard of that firm you mentioned :unamused:

this seems quite insulting being as you were giving them the bloody work

Craig 111:
I think it would be nice if someone from this STG firm (whoever they are?) could come on these forums and tell us all about their work, pass on a few tips so that maybe other firms could have a go at that kind of work now that all the other general haulage stuff has gone to the Russians. Can’t be too difficult can it?

I doubt if anyone will though - you know what these big logistics firms are like, run by men in suits nowadays with no real interest in trucking :confused:

thanks craig… seems you were also taking the ā– ā– ā– ā–
