KN in PR. Obviously can't say too much, they probably don't want it advertised.

I believe I might have passed ZR1Cliff (EPD) on the M25 Anti by Cobham Services around 12.15pm.
You certainly would have done, I was on my way back from Southampton and would tie in with the time. Did you pass me?

Meh, shall wait until summer as there's bound to be other things that need sorting on it by then. The bd bit of wood lanced it from behind as I drove over it, so there's a few clips and other things broken behind there. I thought the crunching sound was the wood all over the floor frown
Thinking about giving mine a once over in Spring, noticed just under the step the paint has been scuffed. Will buy a can of the right paint and touch it up.

Iva cosworth, looked like he forgot to put the pin in.

What a difference in the weather a few hours make.

In the morning on the M2 in a blizzard, between Sittingbourne and Gravesend, the traffic was solid and stood for ages.



My third job in the afternoon, in sunshine, taking a load in to the East End to Bestways at Bethnal Green. Roadworks meant I had to take a diversion and came out by Bethnal Green tube station.

wavey That was me on my way to an emergency drop at Southampton, got back to base at 8pm after a 15 hour day. Only on a Friday frown

I have the only all yellow one, the other one has a white bumper and all of the others are in contractor colours.
I look out for your yellow Renault around Essex and M25 but haven't spotted you yet.

I try not to spend too much time on M25 if i can help it,i currently avoid the

roadworks from 5 to 7.
You can normally spot spaceman in the rear view mirrors creeping up behind wink
