Mr Scania got bored today, you can all shout me down for being irresponsible for taking piccys whilst driving, yes, its deplorable!  Roll Eyes

That aside, I thought I'd capture my morning routine, I started late , by my normal standards, as I finished @ 22:30 the previous night - Yes, I don't get much time off!!!!
Enjoy the piccys!

It always starts off well, cruising along "on the limiter" - 56MPH.....
...

Nice sunny morning!   8) - The M6 in all her glory....  Undecided
...

The sign of trouble ahead......
...

The view I see all too often, the rear end of another truck, whilst sitting in a jam  Roll Eyes - You should have seen the girl in the Black M3  Shocked Wink Grin
...

As you can probably guess, I'm not going to get my artic past those vans, the gap seems small, ho hum, I sit & wait whilst I try to get out, I unloaded 30minutes ago...... Angry
...

Home, let the days stresses fade away in beer & a good spliff (check my tin  Wink )
...


Expect further photo's if I remeber to take the camera to work again! Grin Smiley

No mate, my employer in his infinite wisdom deems it too expensive (£6 I think...) thus, we sit in the jam, burning out our clutches (@ £2000 to replace) and the 12 litre engine burning up fuel as I crawl along in my low gears @ high revs! - utterly crazy!

The M6 toll is a good road, I often use it, but, I don't get re-imbursed for the toll, it depends how late I get up from the previous night's exploits!  Grin - Generally, as I'm paid by the hour, I seek trafficjams anyway - hence my love of the M6!!!  Roll Eyes Grin Grin Grin

Sorry about the girl, I was too busy enjoying my "top-down" view   Wink

Ahh, yes, my PC setup, salvaged from the ruins of my last disasterous relationship! - its all currently at my mates house, where, I temporarily, live...........

You call that speeding? Roll Eyes If you're going over the limit anyway you might as well make it worth your while. Cheesy
