There are always jobs advertised locally (Dorset) driving tippers with sand and gravel. Local bus co advertising for drivers too.

And parcel deliveries (multi-drop) - always work there too.

Prolly no enough dosh working in a bike shop if you want to buy a place. Houses in this area are not cheap.

I can tell you that you don`t wanna be a lorry driver :rolleyes:
unless you like very long unsocial hours and crap pay and driving 1000 - 2000 miles a week, and with only a class 2 licence its even worse.
