30th Birthday Cake!

So there was me thinking what a lovely meal we had at a posh restraunt, none of this silly cake or singing malarky, when over my shoulder appears this work of art! How smart is that for a marbelled chocolate sponge cake. Hand made by my cousins wife, Michelle Oliver. She is a cake maker but even so to build my truck into such a good replica was a great surprise. If anyone wants a cake similar to this they cost between £50 and £150 usually, but if you email me at ben@truckblog.co.uk  i will put you in touch.
Thanks to the wife for a great cake and whole birthday as it goes, i couldn’t have asked for more, it was a pitty to cut it up but oooo it does taste nice!!

Look what i drove today! Driver was out of cards when he got back to Harwich, so i drove his truck back to the yard. No real weight in it or over width, so was fairly straight forward. I won’t blow my own trumpet as our drivers do this day in day out, but i was quite pleased i got back to the yard through the village without clipping a kerb!!
I won’t talk about the V8 but lets just say i didn’t bother putting the radio on for the hour and 25 minutes i had to myself.
Enjoyed it.
