Christmas & New Year

It's been a while since I last wrote anything but it has been rather hectic in the run up to Christmas. I found myself with a rather lucrative short term contract working exclusively for Royal Mail, both trunking and local deliveries, for December and a little bit of January.
So if I'm honest, there hasn't been a lot happening that may be of any interest, unless you count sitting in various Royal Mail depots around the country waiting to get loaded/unloaded as interesting.
 I will say one thing though, they have fantastic canteens at all of their depots.

The picture above shows the main work horse for trunking work and the picture below shows the 18 Tonne rigid that was used for local work. Although the delivery offices use 7.5 Tonners for all of their bulk work, as well as the ubiquitous vans.

There has also been a little bit of container work and a few days shunting down on the docks but, again, nothing new or of any interest. 

Having said all that, there are some exciting projects in the pipeline, so keep looking in to see what's happening.

All the best and a Happy New Year.
