01/10/14

Still seed dressing.  Two customers today, the first was only two tonnes so the whole operation including setting up and taking down didn't take more than an hour.  I noticed that the bags were fuller than I would have expected, so at the second customer I set up my platform weigh to check.  Sure enough my batch weigh was out by three to four kilos every fifty so I finished the job with the weigh platform in use.  I hate the thing, it gets in the way.  When I got back to the yard I checked the batch weigh over and discovered that it was off one of its hinge points.  No wonder it wasn't correct.  After putting it back together correctly I checked it and it seems OK again.  Thank goodness for that.  I'm going to Bridlington in the morning, no not for a paddle in the sea, I'm dressing seed for two customers there.  The job is only four and a half tonnes so it shouldn't take long, then its back to the yard.  I am told that I will then be taking a load to our Seamer store, the only trouble is that it appears that I won't have a truck.  I'm a little baffled as to how I'm going to do the job without a truck but who am I to question my instructions.

I stopped to look over a bridge today on my way to my second customer.  Look what I saw below the bridge.  I hate swans, very conceited birds, full of their own importance.


The view the other way was good though.  The river is the Derwent and I was stood on Howsham bridge.


See you tomorrow.
