Are they happy with you storing it for 4 days? Roddas has a panic attack if it goes a minute over 48 hours!

 

[DairyNerd]

No, but they are happy with three days. Never had to ask for 4 days, yet.

 

[Cowwilf]

We supply meadow, due to be collected tomorrow.

 

[Cowwilf]

No, but they are happy with three days. Never had to ask for 4 days, yet.

A new driver a couple of years ago left a few hundred litres in the tank. I rang meadow to say it needs collecting or tipping away but I want paying for it, they said just leave it and milk into it so some of that collection was 4 days old. bacto was up a tad.

Some good news

I always thought Lloyd Fraser were a privately owned company, turns out they were bought by some Irish Venture Capital firm last year.

I see at least 7 businesses listed as Lloyd Fraser etc so will be interesting to see which have gone pop and which has a good year...call me a cynic!

Can't have been very big or busy if they can stand up new equipment and drivers so quickly
More trans shipping to cut down travel times perhaps.

Heard yesterday off one of the drivers, Arla was his new employer.

Arla must have had some spare vehicles on their operators licence, or they've done a deal with the Gov on a temp licence.

Maybe there were some immaculate vehicle service records available.

A lot of trucks and trailers listed on at least 6 different operators licences under various different operating centres.
