Hillbilly Haulage






At the start of the week I was in Newcastle. The delivery was right in the middle of the city at an oil dealers and took me through some really great sights.

This road seems to have been abandoned but it was a great place to get a 45 minute break in.


This is the view of the angel from the viewing gallery that you don't see if you just fly past on the A1.



Some places were posher than others but it looks like a great town.


A flying visit to Whitby bay, but I have been before and took better pictures from the other side of the bridge.
I was just outside Whitby and wished I was driving a tow truck not a curtain sider, Id be a rescue driver and rescue these great British classics.

Blackpool was a disappointment but I saw some amazing pieces of glass blowing just hanging in fields. pictures were crap but the website is here




A famous brand in the distance.


I was sent over to a transport company that I refer to as Hill Billy haulage to collect a full load from an American Importer. A very famous brand of shoe comes into here as its first port of call.

The workforce reminded me of the cast from deliverance and I was pretty nervous about playing follow the leader when he finally remembered where the 12 pallets were and told me to follow his forklift.they weren't here, thank god.
or here........
He remembered that they were due in on the container tomorrow after looking in Three more warehouse's.



Over to Morrison's in Wellingborough.
I wonder if this place is like its name suggests.
I can never resist a good bonnet even if the pictures are rubbish. or an airaplane.




Battery problems a long way from home made this driver kick is truck while I took sneaky pics.

Ill finish the week on an old classic I saw on the M1. Its an old Honda.



Im at British sugar this Monday completewith hair net and glasses, and no there will not be any pictures.
