After leaving the Sea I worked as an HGV driver.
One day I had a delivery note with just [Evans - Caerphilly] on it, so phoned the Transport Office from a phone box (remember those?) for a proper address.
"Have you tried looking them up in the phone directory?" said the wise traffic clerk!
Remembering I had once been at sea I replied:
"**** OFF - have you seen how many pages of Evans there are in the Caerphilly Directory?"
On another occasion, I was in the said Office when an agency driver phoned in about 2 hours after he should have completed his delivery.
"I'm in Wales" he said "I can't find this Tunbridge place anywhere."
