Re: Why does it always happen to me?

I had to leave my tanker in a company premises overnight with another driver.
We decided to leave the whole of my outfit and the other driver would leave his tank and we would go in his unit to the car park in Doncaster about three miles away.
We had good digs on Christchurch Road and went for a few pints that evening.
We left the digs about 8. Am after breakfast and walked back to the car park only to find the market had been set up and the unit was blocked in.
I got a taxi back to my tanker and pumped the load off, then I got his tank and unloaded that and parked it outside the factory ready for him..
My mate had to wait until after 3PM when a few stalls were moved.
He explained to the TM that the tanks at the factory were full after I tipped and he had to wait until they used a bit of the liquid. He got away with including waiting time money.
My mate passed away years ago but I bet a few of you old timers will remember him, name was Len Mimnagh a regular around the town pubs.
