Friday again. I have spent most of the week seed dressing and only got back to driving yesterday. I have been too tired at night to be bothered to switch on my laptop and wait for it too boot up so I haven't kept up to date. Today I have had two loads, both were only two drops but the truck body was full both times. The first customer for my second load was one of the less intelligent farmers, the type who doesn't realise that he is selling bulk product and therefore needs turning room in his yard. It took me three careful shunts to get turned in his yard and if I had followed his advice I would have taken out one of his flower pots with the front end as I swung round. But it was a day for idiots, there seemed to be many of them out on the road. Pulling back onto the M18 I indicated, checked my mirror and started to pull out, a moron behind me decided that it would be a good idea to pull round me and stay up the outside of me not allowing me to pull out. If I hadn't checked my mirror a second time I would have crunched him. He finally got the message that I would be forced to pull out as I was running out of slip road and moved into the middle lane. Then proceeded to slow down in the middle lane trying to get back to the inside lane to get off at the next junction. If he had a brain cell he would have stayed behind me until he reached the junction, it was only a mile up the road. But the time of the idiot is nearly on us again, its that time of year when people who don't drive far on a regular basis decide to have a trip to the coast, bung up the roads and cause accidents whilst driving with a complete lack of manners. I must remember to set out with a good supply of patience, I'll need it. See you Monday.
