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

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....  :-/

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

The view I see all too often, the rear end of another truck, whilst sitting in a jam  ::) - You should have seen the girl in the Black M3  :o ;) ;D
Image

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...... >:(
Image

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

Expect further photo's if I remeber to take the camera to work again! ;D :)

80mph Paul? :o :o :o :o



























You must have left the hand brake on. ;D ;D ;D ;D




Or maybe you're slowing down having run out of fuel.... the gauge doesn't look too healthy. ;D

Tomorrow, I won't break the law......  ;)Image

You call that speeding? ::) If you're going over the limit anyway you might as well make it worth your while. :D

Hope the fuzz doesn't spot this thread. Otherwise they'll have great fun totting up the offences. ;)

Ok, heres one from a previous trip whilst in 4'th Gear, with more petrol (Woodlouse!) and a warm engine!!!
I was'nt brave / stupid enough to take a piccy flat out in 5th.....
:o

As for the Fuzz, Image
I was doing more than the limit as was the Copper in front of me !!!

Note, the 1'st image was'nt taken at the same time as the second! - I'm not quite that daft!  ;D
