What is it with some of these large companies, had a unit today that threw up a 'Check Braking System', reported it as you do and was told to try another ABS suzzy. For crying out loud is that really fixing the problem, just try another cable and it will be alright. Managed to get another working unit and off to Crawley for the first drop. The service yard was easy to find but backing onto the bay was something also, not difficult mind but a pain in trying not to run over people who insist on walking behind a lorry when its reversing. Whoever designed this docking area must have been on something really powerful, two bays at an angle and the lanes overlap. I was lucky that another artic just finished delivery or I'd have had no chance to get on the bay.
Then to Horsham, another beautiful town but not designed for taking an artic through once I'd finished the delivery, especially when some numskull parks on a corner and there are bollards which don't allow for the trailer swing. I for some unknown reason decided to go cross country via Guildford to get back to the yard, my logic somehow insisted that it will be quicker. Less mileage but definitely not quicker, next time I'll stick to the Motorways.
