Busy day but there's nothing unusual about that especially with two drivers on holiday this week.  To add to my normal run I had Gate Helmsley store and area.  True enough I only had a small drop at the Gate Helmsley store and three drops in the area.  The only trouble with this was that I had to collect the goods for one of the drops from Carlton store as we didn't have it in at our base.  This wasn't a problem, its just that I hate to have to double back on myself, I know I'm paid by the hour but it still irks me to have to travel back over where I have been.  But despite my grumbling everything went well enough and even the collections went well.  First collection was five tonnes of bags from Howden Dyke the second collection was a thousand litre IBC of fish oil for our mill.  At least I think its for the mill as I don't know anyone who oils fish!  Back to base by a quarter to five but I didn't have chance to get unloaded.  I am seed dressing again tomorrow and I need to clean the machine down before I set out for the first customer as the barley of the last customer contained some sterile brome seed which will cling to the riddles if I don't strip them and clean them thoroughly.  I don't have any pictures from today though I did see a very scary sight on a bike, some people shouldn't be allowed out of doors wearing tight clothing.   See you tomorrow
