sort of went to the wrong place. my last drop was in st stephens,cornwall (trolley dolly for co-op)
got to shop,backed in and thought " this don’t look right?"
i’d only reversed into the house next doors driveway! 
Ive done it a few times turned up at a building site and the guy said he didnt order anything turned out it was another builders same name.
My mate a bus driver in the Manc area went in to auto pilot once and drove his bus home !!! with passengers on it lol.
also for EVERY LITTLE HELPS…
delivery for Greenock Extra… nae probs… gets to my delivery point with plent of time (20 mins early)… gets on the bay nice and straight walks in with me notes… guy says to me “if you hurry u might make yer delivery on time driver”…“this is the Port Glasgow store”…
you have to pass the Port Glasgow store to get the Greenock store which is 5 mins along the road… 
Had two lots of bulk feed on one day for two farms, only a mile apart but with similar-sounding names (well I am English! 
) and inevitably the two farmers had the same surname; well it is Wales! 
First one was a 10-tonne load, stood there ages staring at the 5-tonne bin wondering how the hell I was going to get it all in there!
Luckily the farmer turned up before I started blowing; close call though 'cos I’d got the pipes coupled up.
Best one though was years ago when I was working for Rainbows, the Nightfreight depot in Southwell, Notts. Artic pulled into the yard, puzzled driver gets out and asks “where the hell’s this place?”, looked at his notes and he was supposed to be in SOUTHALL, best thing was he’d come from Bristol!
I was doing a regular London- Milan ish run & boss called me in & asked if I fancied a run down to Livorno, yeah no problem I said, it was an easy run, clear customs at Vercelli & then drop off groupage around the corner & then run down to Livorno, I got to Livorno & as was the custom, found a resturaunt, parked for the night & went on a wine tasting mission, before staggering back to the lorry & hitting the sack, in the morning I got up & went back to the resturaunt, did my ablutions, got a cafe lungo & asked the bloke behind the jump where the delivery was, he didn’t have a clue so I asked at a couple of petrol stations, nobody had a clue, we looked in maps & the road I wanted didn’t exist, I admitted defeat & phoned mission control, they said ring back in 10 mins & they’d get me the proper address, it turned out the place was in Livorno, but not just Livorno, it was in Livorno Ferraris, out came the map & then came the shock, Livorno Ferraris is about 5mins away from Vercelli Customs! Boss not a happy chap & I was totally blameless
A few years later somebody who looks just like me went from Shoreham to Enfield to reload, it should’ve been Henfield, it was my lorry too so I certainly paid for that mistake
Then there’s the story about the JISL driver who tried to collect Coca Cola load with a Pepsi Cola painted trailer…
A friend of mine living in Bratislava, Slovakia, was to be sent some top-secret data by a German car maker. So the Germans appointed a special, trusted, experienced, certified etc courier service to drive the disc with the data from them to Bratislava. Delivery address described in details, estimated time of delivery 11-12am. At 4pm still no sign of the disc, both sides very nervous, courier not answering the phone. Then he finally rang back - from a fuel station between Ljubljana and Maribor, he had run out of fuel looking for that Bratislava - in Slovenia…
Recently I went to Asda Didcot.
The old depot … luckily there was someone in the gatehouse to give me directions to the new 1 round the corner
When I was a porter on removals (for the well known red and white firm) we went to a job in Wincanton, so we arrived and couldnt find where we were looking for so found a postie who then told us we were in the wrong Wincanton and the one we wanted was 40 miles away

I never got Newcastle under Lyme and Newcastle upon Tyne mixed up!! honest!!
All I saw was Newcastle…the phone call wasn’t a very pleasant experience!!
The worst one I ever did was with Blakes. They told me in the evening that I was going to Iceland Luton at 6am — OK not my favourite drop but never mind.
In the morning the controller said “Sorry drive it’s Iceland Swindon now OK. No problem then so I get the paperwork, yes it’s for Swindon. Check the load, Swindon again. So off I go - to Luton. I was backed on a bay settling down for a snooze when the shunter knocked the door to give me the good news.
Not me this time; but at Sainsbury’s Worcester we often sat around for hours waiting for a load. A driver from my agency had been there 6 hours when they gave him a full load to Blackpole store (that’s in Worcester about a mile from the depot). The store phoned a couple of hours later wanting to know where there stuff was but the driver didn’t answer his phone. Eventually he phoned in asking for directions to the store in — Blackpool. He had to have a night out because he ran out of hours.
