There are a hell of a lot of lorries turning left at the moment John,and probably more going on up to the Gore,there are artics from everywhere loading from the quarries at the moment as the Councils are spending there end of financial year money.
I wouldn’t think any hauliers are getting much out of it.
Cheers Dave.
My chief photographer hadn’t adjusted the lighting on the camera,as this one of Robinson’s of Worcester,was turning off the A44 into the Gore quarry.

hiya,
No oily rag Dave and certainly no elbow grease so long as inside the shed was clean that did for me i like a mucky motor they do look like they are earning their keep, once had a gaffer who must have liked my motor shining it was always mucky when i parked it up on a Saturday but pristine when i jumped in on Monday and he never once chastised me, he must have had a hosepipe fetish or summat drove past the yard one Sunday morning there he was boilersuit on his car on one side and my motor on the other, happy as Larry he was so i did’nt disturb him, bless.
thanks harry long retired.

It’s a national thing with quarry work I think Merfyn,these quarries here are flat out at the moment,but after the diesel and wages are paid,I wouldn’t think anyone is making much out of it.They surely must give hauliers a decent rate soon,otherwise there will be no lorries left to deliver their materials.
Cheers Dave.
