Today's Office
Thought that I'd show you today's office.
It's a VDL on DAF Tri axle mechs. Lovely drive, but a bit big for driving around Chester, especially with the heavy downpours. Gwen swore at me last night so she is obviously much better.

Today's Office somewhat smaller than my usual fare.
This is a 36 seater changed into a 20 seater diner. Most of the seats have floor mounted tables and the back of the coach has a kitchen area with microwave and two fridges. There's also the usual loo. I had a day in sunny Southport today with this.

What a nice big rig the first was, bet that took some manoeuvring around Chester.
Sunny Southport, the riviera. Bet it was cracking the flags there Ray. Nice to hear Gwen’s feeling better. Hope she ramps up the swearing

What speed do you drive that at Ray, when the paper tissues get their own seat belt?
Glad to hear Gwen is on the mend... and bending your ear.

Thanks from Gwen to everyone.
Scary isn't it, tissues strapped down Biggest problem is the microwave, it tends to slide out of it's cubbyhole if you drop the anchors. Seats one and two are the "built in auto warning device for overtaking in Europe". When I poke my nose out to the left to check for clearance to pass the vehicle in front I watch the faces of passengers 1 & 2, if they stay calm I can overtake, but if they have a panic attack then I pull back in to the right. Better than any beletronic device. BTW, sunny Southport was persisting down all day.

Gwen has stated that I will not be allowed to bring one of my larger toys to the annual meet.
