Another busy day. Got loaded in reasonable time and away just about half past seven. First drop Carlton store. Scrounge a coffee, thank goodness, usually take a coffee to work and drink it while loading. This morning I had to stop quickly in the first village and my coffee landed on the floor, the lid came off. A driver is no good without caffeine in the morning. Second drop a farm drop with a tight back in, took two shunts this morning, should take one. Did get help this morning, usually don't even get spoken to at this drop. So the help was a surprise. Second drop was another farm drop, I rang before hand and the customer was waiting with a fork lift, good man. Last drop was twelve fencing rails to a private house, turned out easy to find, thanks to the sat nav. Then a mill collection sat Standon Mill, Stafford. This is the furthest we usually go, about two and a half hours from base. I have done this collection before and as I usual it was a good load. The only trouble is that it involves a lot of motorway driving, which I don't enjoy. Back to base just before six so it wasn't a bad run. All in all a reasonable day.
