Hey Jim. Hope you're well? How is the Mrs now?

It's been a while since I drove that road (10 months or more).

I don't drive for the company anymore. I guess Clive hasn't mentioned...… It turns out I have arthritis of the spine & sitting for hours in a HGV doesn't do me any favours, but as it happens neither does standing or walking for a variable time period
I only work part time now so 08.00-12.00 every day is me.

People say "lucky you", I say I'll swap you your hours for my pain, they soon shut up

Clive's old truck will be up for sale in a while, he's mentioned buying it back.
I must admit I do love the colour, but as with all these vehicles the tin worm has started to take hold underneath (hence the new one). I did treat it to a treatment of Dynax S50 when I first got her, but the inevitable was always gonna be.
The new one has been treated from a very early age & I couldn't believe how good Ron is

The ironic thing is I used to be a steel fabricator & welding the underneath wouldn't have been a problem before my problem
