Blind and Barking

Blind and Barking.
A nice little blind side revers with the sun in my left mirror just of the A13 in Barking. Sometimes, you can turn around and revers in on your good side. not today though.

[@markpritchard]

Thanks James, Am now at home with me feet up, log fire going and a nice glass of wine, Hard work done for the week. That said i've got to take a look at the heater plugs on my motheres car tomorrow. Work is never done.

Reversing masterclass 👍 getting out looks shit also 🤣 I went there but not on those bays, just to the door in the corner where you normally screw it round. Wasn't as busy as that though, looks like someone positioned those vehicles to make it as hard as possible whilst still being achievable 🤣

[@markpritchard]

Thanks Andrew, I often find when i go into a yard there are 7.5 ton or smaller lorries and vans parked right where you could do without them.

[@martync5169]

Top job that mate 👍

[@markpritchard]

Thanking you.

[@keltthomas8476]

Now thar looks a right pain in the arse mark . Good bit of blind siding there pal never fail to entertain us

[@markpritchard]

Thanks buddy, I forgot to mention how close to the wall the bay is, So you have to watch you rear overhang not that you can see it when the sun is in your left mirror. Sometimes you can turn it around there, not today however, and even if i could, i wouldn't get it in with the lorry and drag parked up there. The joys of London.

Hazards on, flask out, get it all shifted.
You’re a star, I’d have had a meltdown and went home 😂

[@keltthomas8476]

@@martinmillar8447 you can't do that bro it's messes up yhe rest of the day hanging around . My favourite part if the day its the going backwards bit lol. Good challenge to get the job done . Always easier when there are drivers helping you out as a second pair of eyes

[@tommitchell1826]

good job again as always but dnt tell you had only one pallet to take off😀😀😀

[@markpritchard]

You know i can't remember now, Normally i have three or four for Gima but i don't have many on for them. I have unlaoded of the bays before now but at the end of the day you still have to turn around and if you can't do that your reversing out.

[@tommitchell1826]

i knw mark i deliver to a small distribution centre sometimes there yard would have lorries parked all over the place might have only 1 pallet for them so talk nicely to the forklift driver he would take it off for me dsnt always happen tat way.take care man

[@markpritchard]

Take care buddy, And have a good Christmas.

[@lewis4rt]

Hiya Mark how you keeping ? I've been to that Biffa site on the A13 a few times just before you turned left don't think I ever did that drop when I was at Pentons.

[@markpritchard]

Its a nice one. Last year they opened a 2nd warehouse just of the A12 near the Olimpics site which suprise suprise, is even worse. I once got in and unloaded in around 30 half an hour then it took me over an hour to get out as i couldn't get past all the lorries trying to get in.

[@robertmustard1711]

It don't matter how many shunts you have Mark lol

[@markpritchard]

Unless the boss is watching lol.
