Motor Trader

As usual July comes round and the Comtec crew takes to the road for the Motor Trader Industry Awards. With happy smiley faces the Comtec crew, loaded up Big Bertha (the truck) and the crew jumped into the bus heading down to ‘the big shmoke’. The journey was long to say the least, as the motorways came to yet another stand still. All magazines had been read for the 2nd time - yawn - and after 9 long hours we saw the bright lights of London and the crew bus pulled up outside the Grosvenor House Hotel, Park Lane where we were soon joined by Bertha...

As Fode lowered the tail lift and everyone eagerly awaited the start of the load in, the heavens opened. At first this wasn't too bad, until the sky went from grey to black and the rain changed from a heavy summers rain, to Arctic pebbles of ice!

As the pebbles hit us they felt like needles in our backs. Luckily we had Rowan on hand to brighten the mood as he decided to do a bit of singing in the rain and the crew couldn’t fight back the hysterical laughter.

The load in was the quickest yet, there's a new record to beat crew!

  1. Ford - Hope you will be taking Rowan's place in the singing stakes. It's been a while since we have heard you belting out Take That classics from the room next door!
