Backed the old caravan onto the hardstand in one hit smack in the middle
spot on, the old magic is still there eh’ true what they say, you can’t teach
an old dog new tricks, just a pity there wasn’t a bit of roping and sheeting
to do would have made it a perfect day.
thanks harry, long retired.

hello john (altitude)
probably that ----hole belongs to the same brigade that passes me in lay-bys and on the hard shoulder,nothing at all surprises me anymore,the standard of some so called proffesional drivers is really appalling,a sign of the times ,tossers.

Hi Graham your right there mate, they try all kinds of crazy moves to get past. The only thing that stops them coming over the top, is they don’t have wings.
I know a few that have John, well you’ve worked with them too
Hello mate hope your well, yeah know what you mean. I saw the Daf driver parked up on the 420 last week, pretending to have his head in the paper, but peeping over the top unless he missed anything 
I do a few into Tarmac at Radley some days, but don’t see any of the Smith’s lads running into Tuckwells.

He gets to Gill Mill earlier than ever now, knowing I’m loading at 7am; He did splutter last week he blew his horns because I loaded a builders truck I was passing on the way to load him; Cue the shovel driver dropping his bucket and slowly scraping the haul road 
Golden rule of tipper driving-Don’t upset the shovel driver.
