Since getting my Class1 license and making the transition from the dreaded Multidrop to much more realistic driving I have to admit that it is much more 'enjoyable'. This is my running commentary of how things are going or not. My views and comments on my work are also included. Class1 is much more enjoyable then driving a Class2 and trying to deliver a lorry load of stuff whilst rushing around like a headless chicken.

Had a strange run on Wednesday, not that I do many Rigid jobs but once in a while why not. Delivering car parts to 2 garages, bloody posh garages if I might mention. On the way to the second one I got a call to collect a few cages from a small garage, as they haven't got any room. Small isn't the word, and a 'few' cages turned out to be a full lorry's worth. The best thing was that on the way back the road that I drove on has got a 'Not suitable for HGV's' sign and it would be the way that I need to go through. It wasn't there on the way to the garage as I would have noticed it, bit difficult to miss those signs. Not wanting to risk a stop and a spotfine I decided that a slight detour round the Surrey countryside had to be made, made it back to the yard with 1 minute to spare on my driving time, just didn't fancy stopping in Bracknell for my 45 minute break especially if it was just yards from the yard.
