Starline office is at Essendine which is in Rutland and operate a mixed fleet of Rutland and SKDC plated vehicles

incidentally it is the firm I sold my business to most of the cars are branded Premier Starline they have very few owner drivers and mostly run their own fleet with drivers on 40 percent many of whom do school contracts and not a lot else

One of their vehicles picks up at the school I go to in Grantham So between 30 and 40 minutes waiting time in the afternoon and about 20 minutes in the morning. I hope they are on a good rate for the job if they don't get paid by the hour.

Irfan always brags about how his drivers are all earning £400 a week he is another one that likes to quote big numbers for contracts

I'm never going to retire, well as long as the council doesn't retire me.

Seen too many leave the trade and then leave the world within a few years.

Maybe one day cut back on the days I work, but that's hopefully a very very long way off.
