03/04/14

A busy day again.  Started with a small load, not even five tonnes, and it still took all day.  First drop was some fencing timber to an ex farm house, easy enough even if it was a tight back in off a small road.  Second drop four twenty kilo bags of wild bird feed to a private house, instead of a tight back in it was a tight back out.  Third drop was horse feed to another ex farm house, only fourteen bags but it was a long carry in.  Horsey people just seem to love hard work, they could let someone else do it all day!  The fourth drop was to have been a tonne of feed to a farm but it had to wait until after one pm.  So away to Thorne and delivered three tonnes of cattle feed to another farm.  Then back to Goole to collect eight tonnes of fertiliser from the docks for delivery and so back to deliver the last tonne of feed.  Then to Eggbrough to deliver the first lot of fert, no problem.  Off to the last drop with the fert but collected two tonnes of carrots from our Carlton store on the way.  Last drop at Foggathrope then back to base for six thirty, as I said a busy day.  If driver of the pickup who passed me while I was indicating right is able to read and reads this.  DON'T DO IT AGAIN, YOU COULD GET YOURSELF KILLED, FOOL.One other thing of interest today I came across an artic that seemed to have had a king pin failure, the tanker had dropped off the tractor unit, buckled the legs and hit the floor.  Luckily no one was hurt.  See you tomorrow.
