  7. Just thought i would share my WTF moment that happened today i tipped 29tons of stone into the concrete plant in nottingham and pulled up to have my 45min daily break to keep mr VOSA happy anyway after my break i set off and the rear wheel on my back trailer axle locked solid AHHHH BUGGER i checked for airleaks and the usual suspects NOTHING so called the boss explained my issues and he came out to inspect the trailer after 30 secs he came from under the trailer clutching a lump of granite that had wedged itself into the return spring on the brake chamber i tried to pull away and hey presto no more locked on brakes how the fook does a piece of rock bring 80.000 quids worth of truck and trailer to a stop so there we are MY WTF MOMENT my life as a truck driver even suprises me sometimes anyone else had any WTF moments lately
