Here is a update, ok been back at Caz's now for 2 weeks. Got a call last Friday telling me it's back to work on Tuesday morning. The plan is to leave Caz's at 3am and pick up Steve another uk driver who lives in Ashford Kent and over by the euroshuttle then drive up to the yard. Have to be there by midday on Tuesday so thats why i'm leaving at that time. Show season is on us again but it will be a slow start, we have to pick up 3 chassies each, which are stacked 3 high and then drive with the old truck's from the fleet, two plain white one's and head for Algeciras which is nr Gibralter in Spain. Thats where the live show is coming into Europe "I think" from Japan. The show is only 6 containers, so then we do 3 trips each to Cadiz for the boat to Gran Canaria where the show start's, but at the mo i am not going over there, which is a little bad luck for me but hey ho!!!!!!!. Then we take the white truck's somewhere and park them up and fly back....... back to where i don't know yet, probably back to Caz's, will have to wait until i get to the office and see what the plan is. I know a week on Monday my truck is going into the paint shop for 4 day's to be sorted "at long last". I know there is a show due to start here in the uk called "Princess Classics," about mid to the end of September, I might be on that show at the beginning as i have been told, the one that i am actually going on does not start until October. Have not been told what that one is yet, will do some digging later this week. There is a chance as i might meet up with my co worker "Robert" and see if he know's what we will be doing.
Ok here are one or two photos of some places from last season.
This is me on top of the arena in Porto, Portugal. That bridge is part of the ring road.
Looking at part of Porto on the other side of the arena.
This is in Rome at 1700hrs. At this time of day there is thousands of birds come back for the night and what a show they put on but it's very loud for about 1.5hr's, and the way they all move is just amazing. My camera is just not good enough to get good photos of it.
Still in Italy
The next one's are in Greece. This one's not far from Athens.
This is the same road going into Athens, but what a picture, thats not dirt on the lens it's a chinook helicopter.
