A chance for a bit of extra rest as the Homebase warehouse doesn't open until 09:00hrs so there's time for some breakfast before I unload. A single lift and the load is dropped. Off to Liverpool and then through the Wallasey Tunnel for £4.80 (must remember to claim that back later). Another Homebase store at Upton on the Wirral with a single pallet of chipboard, then down to Mold for glue at Dynochem. I am using a curtainsider which has a large bag that can be rolled up and stored in the rear. Unrolled it's about 42It long and it's filled through pipowork permanently installed under the trailer. It only takes about an hour to fill up with 20 tonnes of resin glue; the bag is held in place with 32 ratchet straps. Back to South Molton to offload the glue. Wash the truck using Torridge's pressure washer and spend the night in the yard.
