Something like this 'd be no use to yer then?

A map? Yes, I could sit and study it while sitting at some depot in Livingston while waiting to get 5 pallets loaded, but BOTH forklift drivers are away for lunch at the SAME TIME!
Before that there was the 20 minute diversion I had to take to avoid the long queue of "not moving any time soon" traffic at the M74/M73 junction, and 2 other drops/collections that were in no hurry with their forklift. One was still building the pallets. That's the way it is - always - and the sweat shop know that. But still they insist on phoning every 15 minutes to tell you how important it is that you are at X, Y, and Z by ABC time. So I "politely" told them I won't be back. Not worth the stress of getting up at 0515, traveling 25 miles to their depot for 7am start, working 12 hours then driving home again. All to take home about £70 (remember that unpaid but legally required break!), and take off another £7 or so for petrol costs. There are other companies out there......

As mo says. Or you could set up your own Scottish blethering thread on fb and make it secret so only those in the group can see it.

We have made the group secret @Brandane so it can only be read by those of us invited to the group so you are more than welcome to join in, along with Classic, Traindriver and anyone else who just wants some general chat about cycling and anything else and doesn't want constantly pulled up about silly things like typing in Gaelic. Lol

Sláinte.
Oops .

It's a sad state of affairs when you have to go to FB to talk about what should be getting talked about on here

OK, I have done something I may well regret and re-activated my FB page..... Now how do I find the group if it's secret?

If any of you have friend requests and are wondering "Who?" because you don't know my real name, it might be me. Al C..

All has been explained,as clear as mud, and to think I'm drifting from the other place because it's all too heavy - think I'll put kettle on and make a cup of tea

I would have made my first ride home without lights tonight - if it wan't for the blizzard.
