Strangely, my nameplate has grown legs and walked. Thought someone took it out when it was driven to our mill for washing last weekend but having searched for it, it’s not been put in a locker, under the bunk etc. It must’ve been done by one of those who can’t mind their own business rather than a ■■■■■ as my sat nav wasn’t touched.
Just don’t know why people need to interfere with other drivers motors. 
Be grateful! You have a secret admirer who wants to be you 
Oh! And it isn’t me (no offence)
Or someone that doesn’t want to be mistaken for him

This had crossed my mind. 
I think it’s more likely one of the “that looks different and he does things differently” brigade. The sort who get quite upset because I do a run differently to them and have no wish to stand around discussing it.

A nameplate in the windsceen “looks different” ? does nobody have them today ?
John.
The name plate was “Here today,gone tomorrow”
Check the cctv.It is still theft as it is your property stolen.Not being too over dramatic,but call the police.
I had similar last week with my boots, I wear the yellow type the rest wear black. Came in last Friday to find one missing, what a hoot! I had to stop wearing the pair that were starting to hurt & get a pair off the agency that feel like slippers. Result.

It fits very nicely on the front of my truck!
Only joking… Hope you sort it soon.
get a new one made and put it on expenses
Easy to find…just look for a bald driver who had your motor for that day…he thought the sign said…Hair 2 day..Gone 2 morra
I must admit that i have taken nameplates from the window, but merely put them out of sight, and if i remember at the end of the shift i put them back…just dont want to be associated with a ridiculous name, it may suit the present driver, but doent always fit everyone.

That’s perfectly reasonable, but removing it altogether just says jobsworth with nothing better to do. Which makes me think it’s the same driver who I caught looking in my cab a couple of weeks ago and noted “your lorry’s newer but not as clean inside as mine.”
He didn’t like it when I replied “so ■■■■■■■ what?” 
Hi “Muckaway” ,
Soon after you made the delivery on Tuesday at Oxenholme , there was an unveiling ceremony of a virgin train
at the Station . Just thinking ,…the new name of the train was… 
Sorry to read of the theft 
. I hope it wasn`t a ■■■■■■■■ scroat . The theft gives a bad name to any area.
Cheers , cattle wagon man.
No mate it was nicked last Saturday. A lot of the golden oldies around Windermere coukd barely walk down the street, never mind climb into my cab.
Got around very quickly, I got 10/11 drops done by Tuesday night, overnighted in Lytham St Annes and did the last drop at 5am. Back indoors by midday.
Back up Lancashire way on Tuesday on a night out if I survive Cardiff tomorrow and the ■■■■ hole that is Roath.
Are you absolutely certain that it was your lorry you got into? 
Pete.

I hope so Pete, my night out kit was in there.
I drive the only '61 reg aswell.
have you lifted the bunk 
I know we had drivers that would tuck stuff under the bunk out the way

First place I looked. I’m not overly fussed it’s just so petty. I only put it in there because the wife saw it and my flag dumped in the spare room and said “are you putting that in your lorry?” I took the hint as it was nearly dinner time.
Mucker,was the name plate "Yer Tiz.’ ?
Nothing worse than having your space invaded. New lad at our place had mine a fortnight ago, brought it back with jigger all fuel and a couple of droplets of AdBlu. Cab must really smell, as he whacked up the air fresheners to full, and emptied out 8 quids worth of refills in a day. They must be quite tricky to operate, as he had to remove them from the air vents to turn them up, and busted off every single fin trying to put them back on.
Not content with this he had to pull out the wires behind the dash to see what they were for (DAB radio and AUX lead for my iPod)
Plugged in the hella lead for my 4 way adaptor, but didn’t bother unplugging it afterwards, so everything was running all day and night, then busted the end off a brand new iphone 5 lead. Funnily enough he also has an iphone 5.
When challenged, it wasn’t him, as he’d definitely not touched anything “I’ve got a job to do, no time for buggering about”
Same bloke ran out of hours the other day, but had time to put a dozen posts on Facebook to tell the world of his plight.
This is also the chap that had to do a run to Norwich in my motor, when I was given a day off to bring my WTD hours down.
So knowing I was on a day off he texted me at 6am to congratulate me on having the cleanest cab he’d ever sat in, class move! I wouldn’t mind, but he’d had to come about with me about a fortnight before, so he already knew how I kept it.
They let him have it again week before last, one drop, big hotel in Sunderland, that’s had a wedding venue built. I get it back the following day, bottom couple of feet caked in mud, I wash it of to find the front bumper and step stoved in. Oh, and wiped out most of the tread on a brand new tyre.
Not only had he stuffed it into something on the site, he wasn’t aware that he’d actually hit anything in it, then had the cheek to try and berate me for my sarcastic tone when I thanked him for the state he’d left it in.
Ex-forces, reckons he’s driven class 1 for Culina and Stobarts, but turns out he’s told another driver that he was concerned about driving a class 2 vehicle loaded, as he’d only ever driven empty vehicles (that’ll be his training and test then)
Funny how he avoids me on the yard now
Nove,tell that ■■■■■■ of a driver, you have installed secret Cctv in the cab.
