After the previous week's trials I managed a much quieter week starting with a round trip to Somercotes in Derbyshire on Monday. 3 hours to drive there, sit on the bay for 2 hours then drive home again.On Tuesday I went to Genk in Belgium about a 400 mile drive getting there in the cool of the evening at which point the cork was extracted from a bottle...
Sunday usual Lunchtime start and run out to Loppem where, with the help of a few mates, I have a quiet celebration of my birthday the previous day. Monday Up early and on to first drop at Stenke a small place in Belgium where I find some small premises on a small street only problem is no ones at home. Then I see that they don't open for another 20...
A much quieter week, which can get very frustrating not knowing what you're doing next.Monday started with the fun of going to Coleford while tipping the scales at 40 tonnes. The road through the forest is very pretty and there are some great views from the top of the hills but boy is it hard work. My truck has 16 gears and I was using about 8 of them...

Thanks to that nice Mr Eddie I now have a Blog all of my own, how I managed without one befroe I just don't know.What I'm going to put here is again open to speculation, watch this space
