Got asked if I wanted to use some of my holiday I’ve got left on Friday
I declined as weather was pants
I thought ZB me how bad are things , not a sole on bays & just one other lorry here , then some bloke walks over & says it’s closed mate , you need to go to the new depot opposite ( Lidl Belvedere ) ha ha
I reckon people are tightening their belts now.
Lulls in traffic outside of Rush Hour - now seem to be lasting longer and longer.
Late at night, traffic dies a complete death around 2am, rather than just drops to a trickle as it was just a few weeks ago.
Drove along the A26 last night, and didn’t pass anyone coming the other way for miles @ 2am…
Mind you, that road is in a dreadful state! - More potholes than road surface it seems…

Agency in Northampton says work timidly picking up and still quieter than expected for this time of the year, they are in no effective need of drivers now. Agency providing Eddie Stobbie on A5 says they’re full, so no real need for more drivers either.

I hope you`re not having to quit because of illness?
Giving up from choice is different to being sick.

I’d suggest it is probably not from choice, judging by Dozy’s BP posts
Appears Dozy is in hospital. He started this thread in health and family.
Note all we know is that he is in hospital, nothing more.
Well whatever the issue is I hope it all works out well Dozy. Keep us up to speed.
