Students and Flitting and Stuff

It's been a bit of a slow week as far as driving goes with Monday and Tuesday dedicated to other parts of my working life. Wednesday saw me doing some multi-drop work for a paper company, something I haven't done in a very long time and it's still as rubbish as I remember it used to be. Thursday was some general haulage work in the local area and today see's me back on boxes in Bristol with a load of bananas and the usual parking carnage as there's only 3 bays but about 10 wagons waiting to tip.

A packed mini

Can we fit anymore in?

Anyway, what did happen this week was my daughter moving out, albeit into student digs so I suppose that doesn't really count as permanent, and onto the next stage of her life. She'll be studying Media at Brighton, so it was packing the car on Sunday morning and setting off for the hour or so drive to Brighton. And when I say packing the car, I mean packing the car. I suppose a mini is not the best vehicle but we managed to get it all in. By the way, that's where the flitting part comes in, an old Scottish word for moving house.

Yes, we did put the roof up, but it was pretty cramped in there. Anyway, 1 child down, 2 to go.

The other thing that's happening this week is the build up to my first Tough Mudder. I'm actually quite excited and will be taking part in the London South event. We're trying to raise money for our eldest, all donations welcome, in order to buy a new tricycle for him and his buddies at Stuarts House Care.

Take care and drive safe.
