Three more weeks to go


Unmarked Police car,
"Book 'im Danno, Speeding One"



Okay thats close enough, is that a statement or a compliment ????????????


Heres the truck but look closer

Thats the end of the week for me, this morning was a straight run up to Tesco in Doncaster then back to the depot, this week has been very kind to me, we got a bit of a busy weekend in front of us, last minute sorting out and emptying the garage. Tomorrow we are off up to Birmingham to visit Rob & Cath, Rob is my cousin and they are a few of the ones who came to us for last weeks party, looks like its a bit of a return match, should be great fun. Thats one of the nice things about moving away,it actually makes you realise how lousy you were all these years with keeping in touch with family.

While i was sat sat in the Motorway Services this morning enjoying my "All day Breakfast" grilled pannini and medium sized Latte with splenda not sugar...........

Sorry i am rambling, while i was eating my breakfast this truck pulled out and i had to laugh at the advertising on the side. What self respecting trucker would haul a trailer like that..........yes i know, if the money was right, its better than catching crabs in Alaska.

Note to Aaron the Truck Driver

i got the crabs in Alaska thing from your blog so thanks for that, i googled it and what an amazing job, when i read comments about going to the top of the world, getting wet and freezing and at the end of it all catching crabs, i thought this was something to do with a night out in downtown Anchorage, but how wrong i was. These guys are risking their lives on a daily basis, i think i would prefer the ice driving given the choice.......

Actually no, H & R in good old Lethbidge sounds more comfortable, maybe next year

  1. That crabbing show is pretty good too.

    I would much rather drive on the lakes though. They say one guy dies a week on those crabbing ships.

    I have a friend who is Canadian, he isn't a driver but he is always telling me they make a good living up there. I just saw another show on the internet about the oil sands. They are extracting oil from the sand in . i don't remember the providence, but those guys are making a lot too.

    I need to move to Canada!
