Had a busy but different week, for a change it was pleasant and enjoyable at work this week.
The Tesco Based Drivers are supposed to be doing 90% work for Tesco and hardley any General Haulage, there's nowt wrong with a Mixture of work ( not doing Tesco Store deliveries day in day out if ur a Tramper).
Started shift on Tuesday as per normal, a double decker up to Newcastle store tipped and reloaded with cages to take to Middlesborough then back to Goole with an empty.
Then 2 store deliveries, one in Sheffield then Chesterfield then park in Barlborough my old depot for the night.
Wednesday was a trip up to Livingston (Scotland) with a double decker then park up back down at Lockerbie Truck stop.
Thursday and away to Middlesborough with a temp of -6 then at Stainmore when I'd of thought the temp would been lower it was only -2, in and out of Middlesborough pretty quick fuel at Barlborough and then catch another break on the way down to Magor South Wales. 2 hours later and a reloaded trailer with empty cages and off to park up for the night at Monmouth.
Friday back up to Barlborough re-fuelled, showered and another double decker and heading south for Thurrock, The A14 was closed due to an accident, a tanker had gone over closing it both directions so u can imagine the Traffic in the area (yes it was rather busy) any way after 1hr 40mins delay in getting to Thurrock I did the delivery and went to park up for the night in the services.
Saturday was a drive back to Barlborough then take a load back to my depot in Goole to be given a Garforth Tesco store delivery, then a ho back to Base to end the week doing just under 3000kms ( not a bad week for the UK that is.....
