Two simple jobs and a little good planning meant I could leave home to get to the customer around 9.30am . Having collected the used MG3 going to the customer near Canterbury last night.

So the drive going from Aylesbury this morning, took me down the A41 the M25 then clockwise, past the Dartford crossing to the A2 and on to an address near Kearsney train station.

The customer had asked me to deliver the car to a different address. Which is ok, provided I get identification that I'm handing the car to the correct person and agreed this with the dealer.

I had plenty of time today and decided to walk the 25 minutes to Kearsney Station.

From there it was a direct 40 minutes train to Rochester and a quick Uber to the BCA site to collect the van destined for my customer in Aylesbury.

As usual here at BCA Kingsnorth it's a simple process. Give the security gate my registration number and release code. It's a pre booked slot for collection so they have the details.

They then call the vehicle out and a few minutes later, out comes my vehicle to get home. Not only that. I get paid for it 😁.

A couple of hours later along the M2 and anticlockwise past the Dartford crossing round to the A41 towards Aylesbury. 2 hours if your lucky at Dartford.

Two jobs done. But....

I had three jobs today. I had subcontracted a job for my customer in Oxford. A delivery of a retail car to a customer in Liverpool with a car coming back to Oxford.

The car being delivered was one, a few weeks earlier, I had collected from Grimsby. The 2018 Toyota Auris if you remember?

Thank you Richardson Logistics for another great job done.
