This isn’t as stupid a question as it may seem but whilst watching that Eddie Stobart program…series 2, episode 2, at 06:29 in, you get one of their lovely map animations, and apparently Birmingham has now moved about 150 miles NNW of Manchester…
Guess I’ll have a longer driver next time I have to visit the Tamworth DC 
I see Manchester is on the move too 

No bloody wonder motorists keep going down silly little lanes and stuff when using their satnavs if all the ■■■■■■■ cities and towns keep moving! lol

That could explain why they seem to miss every delivery slot. 
Also it looks like they go m6, m61, m60, m62 to get from carlisle to warrington

everyone knows birmingham is in alabama…dont they ? 
Bugger - I have a week off and they move the place again

Yep, been there. Every sign post full of bullet holes.

Erm, Call me stupid, but isn’t that the only sensible way to (technically) Warrington (M62 J11) when M6S is shut by CR. 
so thats why it took me an a lot longer to get home on friday from wolverhampton 
On the plus side Carlisle has now moved to Penrith, so Stobbies wont have so far to travel from Carlisle to Appleton
