I’ve a 18.00 booking at Tesco rdc tonight , I chanced it by turning up at 15.30 but said your too early for your booking , that’s fair enough , but it’s saying the earliest you can arrive is 16.00 ? I was expecting it too say 17.30 ( was it not always 1/2 hr before ? ) , I just can’t be bothered to drive back if it’s going to send me away again , I’ll just go for 17.30
Or has Tesco bookings changed & it’s a 2 hr window , not 1/2 hr , ta
Ambient depot wise…
Lichfield & Thurrock - no more than 30 mins before.
Reading - Not bothered normally so long as your load is for “their shift”.
Daventry - As above usually.
Goole - 2hrs before (usually). Supply hauliers can drop & swap whenever.
I’m not up to speed with Magor & Livingston.

Oh right , I’m hanging on till 17.30 now , just not something I’ve ever seen before , ta
Depends how busy they are. This is frozen experience only but I turned up at Dav last week 50 minutes early and was turned away and told to come back at my booking time. The place was rammed though. Normally they operate a 60 minute either side window.

Went for 17.30 , got there for 17.25 & it sent me away again , so round the block & got in at 17,32 , that 4 o’clock must of been a glitch

Strangely it was showing on screen drivers who were booked in for 18.30 / 19.00 there at 17.45 , 18.00 , so I guess it’s how desperate they are for the stuff you’ve got on

Use it for a free coffee when at Tesco , it was 3 free coffees per day if my memory services me right , haven’t tried it to see if it still is as 1 per day is enough of that stuff

Unlimited now Doze.
Even though its free and unlimited I still won’t touch it. Says a lot 
Unlimited , that’s good though you’d have to have a iron stomach to drink a lot of that stuff , cards are as I say worth there weight in gold , should use mine more .
