This is one of my biggest hates on the motorway along with people who insist on driving in the middle lane without actually overtaking anybody. You usually find that these 2 situations are a major cause to motorway congestion.

Middle lane hoggers... ......I must admit, I enjoy nothing better than going past them on the inside lane, beeping my horn, whilst giving them random hand gestures....It can liven up an otherwise dull day...

...Ask yourself, who is hunting whose business?....I reckon its more the hauliers scrambling for the Supermarket's contracts, than the other way around.

Ultimately, its the simple world of dog eat dog capitalism.....The supermarkets are making bucketloads of cash, your hauliers are scratching for a living because there are so many of them undercutting one another, desparate to get the supermarket's business....

fantastic! three pages on a road that links two of the biggest shatholes in the country.

Not quite sure what there is to comment on, as your sole argument seems to be the misguided idea that the Haulage industry holds the key to the British economy and so should be treated leniently when it comes to tax issues, rather than just being like many other businesses that have to COMPETE with their competitors.

What about the m25

Read your posts fella. You've contradicted yourself so many times on this thread I've lost count.

....Feel free to highlight those contradictions....

Lets get to the point here, what we all want to know.

Milk in different company stores are usually the same. Infact alot of times the same milk is in two/three different containers and different prices.

you moved to the chiller section?

We network.

Sometimes all you do is go over with a two pinter and nod as you put it back on the right shelf. Typical customers putting the full fat with the fresh n lo.

Not sure about "networking"; I understand your colleagues would prefer it if you just did any work at all.

For somebody who has in his time slagged-off the job that just about every one connected with the club, from builders to maintenance men to markerting department, does its amazing that you can't even pull your weight on a ready cooked chicken counter.

Wow, that's dead interesting.
