    Hi from France, years ago i drove a truck and drag for Norbert Dentressangle here in France,we did heaps of Italy>England,i had a client that was in Valence Road,London.Although it was back in the 90's I'll never,ever forget that place as long as i live,the hardest place on earth to back into and even harder getting out of.Whenever the word London is pronounced i think of that place.

    Hey, I’m absolutely loving your channel. I’m going to dig out some pics of my late beloved old man’s V8 Scania’s that he piloted, predominately out of Northern Ireland. They were all 141s, 142s & his babies, two 143s he drove before sudden & serious illness forced him into immediate retirement back in the mid to late 90’s!! Enjoy your evening wherever you may be and parked up for the day 🤗🤗

    Greetings sherralin, today I have signed up because I follow quite a few Spanish truckers, and I don't know how your Vlog got to me, but it has been surprising to see such perfect maneuvers. And above all and more what has caught my attention is seeing the markets or loading and unloading warehouses... and unloading. That is something that is not seen in Spaniards... a lot of roads, some rest area... but the essence of loading and unloading is not. They say that it is due to the policy of the companies that do not want them to leave. (which I don't believe) thanks for the videos, that is seeing the soul of a driver.

      I’ve just watched the video through again and nowhere did I “bad mouth” anyone. If you are talking about the guy at the end, as I pointed out he was being grumpy, it turned out it was due to a lack of communication between his office/superior and him. I am very careful what I do and what I say to or about people especially on social media.
