thought they only sent owner drivers / subbies over the water ? that was the case when i was there in 2000

they started sending there own drivers over the water mainly doing italy, the strange thing was they kept changing there motors about every 3 months, it was like they was running demo motors painted in archbolds colours, started off in scanias then changed to renaults then to volvo then back to renaults and so on .

that could be to keep the mileages down on the motors, they did it with us at heywood , started of in a eurotech , given an fh from leeds depot then an fl10 from stepps depot what a comedown that was!

It would appear it’s still a 0 hour contract…
