  19. Re-load today was from downham market in deepest darkest norfolk tbought it would be straight forward but NO lol loaded me with waste paper lets just say the machine driver was not the best at loading as you can see from the pic he turned the mighty actros into the bloody andrex puppy, on the plus side the SIDC sticker on my cab was noticed by a very nice young lady in a bugeye wrx which resulted in a nice chat at the snack bar so i told her to swing by the club site and have a nose around so if you have HELLOOOOO
  20. It was impressive to think that i took a 65ft truck and trailer underground yesterday will stay with me for ages as for the sound of a flat four in there i agree it would sound out of this world tbh after the cat bucket loader loaded me and sodded off while putting my sheet on it dawned on me how earily quite it was in the mine but bloody warm the mine extends 12kms in every direction WTF
  21. Thats exactly what my counseller says to me when i have my hour session "dont worry about the little voices it will all be ok"
  22. Make sure you lube the "O" ring well leon as theres nothing worse than a dry "O" ring especially when its a tight hole your trying to get it in dont wanna damage Your "O" ring do we now
  23. Well today tipped my load from kings lynn at mere in cheshire today then was told to go to winsford salt mine to collect my reload of road salt and weighed in and the weighbridge man told me to follow the blue arrows and put my headlights on mmmmm the suns out i thought he had lost the plot but all became clear when i entered what i thought was a building and imagine my shock when i ended up underground in the mine me and the mighty actros were a bit concerned at this bit all was good and got loaded with salt so the roads around the midlands ice free for all the scooby drivers doing my little bit gave me a warm glow inside lol
