The man in the balloon

A man is flying in a hot air balloon and realizes he is lost. He reduces height and spots a man down below. He lowers the balloon further and shouts: “Excuse me, can you tell me where I am?”

The man below says: “Yes, you’re in a hot air balloon, hovering 30 feet above this field."

"You must be a freight forwarder” says the balloonist.

“I am” replies the man. “How did you know?”

“Well,” says the balloonist, “everything you have told me is technically correct, but it’s no use to anyone.”

The man below says “you must be a customer.”

“I am” replies the balloonist, “but how did you know?”

“Well,” says the man, “you don’t know where you are, or where you’re going, but you expect me to be able to help. You’re in the same position you were before we met, but now it’s my fault.”

Barrington vehicle gets smashed by another freight company !

Last week in a cruel twist of irony, one of our vans was smashed by a truck from another freight company.

Barrington MD Matt Everard was sitting in one of our vans as a truck from another freight company reversed into the front of it. Luckily only our pride and our little van were dented. Mr Everard escaped without injury.

If you have road freight your cargo will be safe if you chose Barrington as your freight company .
The offending truck can been seen here, been warned if you see him reversing anywhere near your car !
