Dunno why everyone carries the tachos round with them. Just asking for trouble as you’re basically giving them more fuel for their FPN fires. My old ones spent most of their time sat at home until they were due to be handed in. If the battenburg bloke asked me for my previous weeks I’d just tell him I’ve been in Tenerife for 3 weeks and only started back today. Obviously that only works if you’re starting from base, but they’ve no way of knowing whether you’re talking BS or the truth.
have you got an all year round tan then rob
I see what you’re getting at Dave, but I’m not seeing the connection…
if you tell him you,ve just had three weeks in tenerife then you would expect to have a tan or a bit of sunburn. unless your like me and prefer to stay indoors by the bar and sleep when the sun is out.

Ahh I didn’t see what you were getting at after all. I thought you meant something else. Well, whatever colour my skin is and where I have been is none of his [zb] business. Not everyone tans.
i got pulled yesterday at 10 am at telford services. checked my tacho card and said got anymore, yep i said and gave him the previous 28 days, with the exception of this current weeks. ( oops ) after 20 mins came back and said all is well and thanks for your time. he never did see this weeks tachos ( numpty ). lol he even asked me how my box was secured on the skelly
I got pulled last year in a sprinter van, " you know why we’ve pulled ya" big smirk on his face, " no I reply’, " you look a bit heavy" he says, 'you better look in the back then officer" I say , big smirk on my face,… the van was empty, pmsl.

Was it a high mileage van with saggy suspension or his eyesight?
Normally the tyres are a good indication, otherwise the more regular transit drivers with modified springs and greedy boards would get away with it.
