Today has been silly and irritating by turns. Firstly I was sent to the edge of York to collect ten tonnes of feed that wasn't ready until tomorrow. Back to base and try again. The next load was more successful, three deliveries, everything available and everything delivered okay. Then the first and second collections okay but then back to the edge of York to try to collect what wasn't available until tomorrow, again. No wonder they looked at me as if I'm daft, but as I explained I'm just a driver and go where I'm sent. But what wasn't available until tomorrow was available if I was willing to wait for a quarter of an hour. And they think I'm daft. The trouble was that I now had three tonnes loaded and hence was unable to collect the whole of the order as I would have been well over my weight. What fun. I ended up back in the yard by half past five fully loaded. I have had the spare truck all day as mine was in for service, now our mechanical geniuses have found a bearing and an oil seal that need replacing and I can't have it back until Friday at the earliest. I could cry or I could swear, BUGGER IT. Can't do with tears.
See you tomorrow.
