Truckers Tales
I was in a truck stop listening to two long-distance truck drivers complaining of the increase of traffic on the roads.
One said he can remember his Father telling him about how he used to leave Amsterdam on a Monday, drive to the south of Italy, make his delivery and be back home on Tuesday evening.
The second said his Father used to leave Cherbourg on a Monday, down to the south of Portugal and back by Tuesday lunchtime.
At this juncture I had to chip in "my Dad told me that he would leave the south of England on a Monday evening, go to Hamburg, drop his load and he'd be back in England early on Tuesday!"
"**** me" exlaimed the other two "what the **** was he driving?"
"I think it was a called a Lancaster."
