Default TNT handling nows there a first!

Hi All

Just had to post this as did make me smile every couple of weeks we get our big trade deliveries arrive via TNT now they are pretty good with our stuff and its usually always the same guy who delivers but this time a new guy arrived lovinley clutching a small box with 6 huge boxes carefully placed behind him turns out he's herper and has snakes and seeing the box had live harmless reptiles written on it he'd had the baby snake sat in his cab and kept it warm bless

If only all TNT drivers were like this
cheers for rading paula

LOl it was to be honest my normal TNT man is fine not a reptile fan knows whats in the boxes and treats them with respect I would say TNT are not bad at all for domestic couriers

I used to use amtrac years ago they were fantastic bring reps up from geoff clark in devon to the soouth east often in cabs I even had loads of live rodends in lab cages delivered without any probs those were the days LOL

The TNT guy who delivers to the shop isn't a rep keeper, but is very good with the boxes. He always asks if he can wait while I open it up, he's always interested in what he's been looking after for us this time!

Paula - love the new avatar!
