Oh what fun is to slide on a slippery drive. Today was fun, well it was for me and not for the other driver who decided to drive for the first part of the day. Slush everywhere and when we got to our second drop we had trouble finding it so he decided to turn around and that was it. He drove into a track and duly became stuck, front wheels sunk into the soft earth and the rear just kept spinning on 2in thick ice. No matter how much I dug and tried to get the wagon moving it remained well and truly stuck. Tried the grit, branches under the tyres and nothing worked. The farmer to whom we were delivering came down with his tractor and even he couldn't budge us. Had to wait for a recovery lorry, about 2 hours till we were free. Then it was my turn to drive. Yet another long day, 13.5hrs to be exact.
