And I thought the driving standards and parking was bad in the UK.... Those hazard lights are what we deem "Magic parking lights" in the UK ... Well done Sherralin ...
Hi from France, love your videos.Just getting back to the car parking situation, i drive à petrol tanker here in France,i do alot of inner city deliveries,yeah the parked cars are a problem,hard to acces the deliveries and at times impossible to leave,parked cars,so it"s tow-trucks/Police/one pissed off Australian that insults them as only an Aussie can do.The client i work for is B.P. (E.G. RetailFrance) they probably could spell my name backwards with all the e-mails/photos i've sent them,but yeah you wouldn't believe where they leave their véhicules.Love your chanel.
@@GBtrucklady Nothing stays the same. Before that Pamplona road was widened and the tunnel put in at the top, everyone went via Burgos to Madrid. Wild nights and weekends at Victors. Your videos are a trip down memory lane for us oldies lol. Keep em coming.
@@sk1nzsk1nz34 we used to go 121a 1982 before the tunnel up and up round all the hairpins then Pamplona head for Sofia down the c101 to medinicelli And onto the N2 for Guadalajara and Madrid,soma sierra was ok but struggled getting passed victors without stopping for a few too many.
that was really interesting Sherralin, some tight spots for trucks in Spain, must say you do really good job. they sure park all over the place there😃and i thought in england and germany, where i come from is bad. Love your videos, they are really interesting. Looking forward to more. Stay safe on your travels. Greetings from Germany👍
I’d love to see America someday, such a diverse place. I’m glad I can help you escape your normal. Everyday’s an Adventure no matter where you are. Take care 😁
to start off i'm 78 live by myself and have for years, now that out of the way if you ever do cross the pond your wel. stay safe and god blesscome here, i live right in the middle of the u.s. maybe i could show you some of the surrounding area and maybe later if i could make it to the uk you could do the same@@GBtrucklady
Good day to you and thanks again for another video. The scenery at the start is amazingly similar to the Highlands of Scotland. You are right the snow gives the video a very Christmassy feel and the gritters and ploughs seem to be doing a good job at keeping it off the roads. Malaga looks lovely, really marked contrast in the weather. Enjoy your time off. 1.50 into the video, have you ever been there on time.😂😂. Sorry poor joke. Safe journeys.
Great video Sherralin. when i think of Spain i don't normally think of snow lol. It was very interesting to watch your travels through the mountains and hills. Great veiws of the countryside too. Hard to believe that they can park on a roundabout, that's just not right. Anyway i look forward to your next video, thanks again.
Hi Sherralin great video. Just gave you a sub, been following Trucker Jenko for years and The Breeze since Martyn joined Broughton’s. Looking forward to following your adventures. Take care stay safe 🚚
Hello Sherralin, it made me laugh about the parking! It’s quite normal here in Spain! Double parking, just stop anywhere is the way it goes. We are in a village 45 mins north of Malaga and we have folk in cars just stop in the street to chat 😂😂😂 Malaga is indeed a gorgeous city 🤩
😂😂 Yep that’s pretty much what they do😂😂 I was going to do the tourist bus but didn’t have time so when I was near a guide that was speaking English I hovered at the back and listened 😂😁👍🏻
Hi Sherralin, am new to your video. I'm Barbara and I live in Manchester. I do understand the parking as I've been all over the place in Europe as me and my lovely hubby Tom (no, not from The Good Life🤣) would caravan, although only tipped our toes into Spain. Would love to have gone there, but sadly, my hubby passed away before we could do so. Anyway, I'll start catching up with the videos, and will see you again
Bravo to you lady driver.. I live in the US.. Been driving trucks since 2007...I thought we had some tight places to get in and out of... Safe travels to you.. Enjoyed your video..
A great watch as always , through the snow , over the mountains , deliveries done & parked for ya weekend break , last time I parked there I had to have 66 hours off to make up my weekend rest cost me €36 for the privlage & I slept most of it , have a great safe trip back home to uk . Xx
Thanks Sherralin, , another interesting one. Been to Malaga, saw some sights and went up to Mijas. Don’t take the bus up there. The pot holes are on ‘steroids’ and the roads are a nightmare. We were shaken like beans in a can !!! Phil - Suffolk. 😮
Saw your wagon at a depot today (leicester) I wanted to come and say hi but I missed you obviously you would have been being tipped or loaded and awaiting in canteen. Hope they gave you a quick turnaround. Keep up the good work.
I can feel your driving experience. You think ahead for possible icy road in the morning. Good call on your part. Mountain road are all the same in any winter and country that have snow. For my part, in the month of June, I have encounter snow in the mountain of British Columbia, Canada. Not much, but surprising!
Good video, a canny head needed for some of those tight spots - nicely done 👍 Snowing here in Ireland, just thinking about Rosslare Santander and some winter sun in Andalusia 😊. Car or campervan? Decisions 😮
Hi Sherralin great vlog as usual ! just wondered why you tipped the Frozen first if the 8 pls on the back were just around the corner ? keep em coming & thanks.
Bryan S: Ha! You are now speaking MY language! 'Washing Thingy'? Yes, it is pronounced 'CO-IN', (I used to live there!). So you were half right..And yes, it IS an 'Amphitheatre'!...Stay safe and thank you once more...🅱️🙏.
Hi sherralin nlce video as usual have you ever been over the top of the mountain on the 121 before the tunnel in the snow it’s very challenging stay safe regards bob
Great video and commentary from the cab. , Thank you. The ever changing scenery is unique. Malaga industrial estates, like many in spain . have a relaxed method of parking i have found out but never a problem. Keep the head compass calibrated= results➡⬅↔ ⬆⬇ 🏁 Just been given provisional details for a collection in Algeciras 😔and then a secret place in france Its a weeks work. Safe travels
What is the Price difference with parking charges between British truck stops and ones in Europe etc ?? Also do the likes of BP ,Shell etc charge the same as i once knew a driver that was constantly writing to them for an answer as to why they charged for parking in Britain but not in Europe , Thanks for the videos :)
Parking prices are set by the owners of the parking areas not the fuel companies. CTM’s in Spain are owned, I believe, by the government. Most parking areas in Europe and UK do not have security. In UK you pay for parking in service areas, some have free showers, some also give meal vouchers but in Europe most are free parking, you pay for showers and food. In UK the price for parking is around £30 per 24hr. In Europe parking tends to be free but parking areas get full from 1500hrs. A lot of private areas in Europe eg German Autohauf’s and Dutch rest areas etc charge for parking but the cost is taken off your meal price. The CTM’s in Spain are secure, you pay extra for showers and food. It’s about €15/€20 per 24hr and €0.50 per hour.
You can go that way, down A1 but this is N221A, I go this way and cut across land, it’s a much better road, easier on the lorry, not so many big hills and quieter. It takes about the same time.
Hiya , if the second delivery was just around the corner how come you didn’t do that one first , is it about booking times ? Not criticising just interested
At night🤔 maybe in the early hours, Owine Wyn Evans maybe? Oh it might have been on the Phil Williams thingy? 😂😂 Me and my son have a competition to see who can get on when we’re on silly hours work 🤣😂🤣😂
Don’t worry about deletes, we are glad you show us any part of your interesting journeys. Philn- Suffolk😊
Thank you. 😁
Excellent. Years of experience, you make it look easy , behind the scenes it’s not . Fair play to you . Stay safe
Thanks for watching 😁
And I thought the driving standards and parking was bad in the UK.... Those hazard lights are what we deem "Magic parking lights" in the UK ... Well done Sherralin ...
😂😂😂 Thank you.
Awesome driving you make it look so easy going through them street's hope you are well keep enjoying life Phil.🙏👍
Thank you but there’s millions of drivers doing the same thing as me everyday all over the world. 😁
hiya,,, another good one! have a great weekend, as always drive safe keep well.

Many thanks again for an informative vid. Nice to see a bit of blue sky - -5 and overcast in Lincolnshire....DOH!

The N121A I run Pamplona that brings back memories of late 80s running to Spain used to have Saturday night at sunbilla garage on old road
More Brits than anyone else there at the weekends lol. Always enjoyed the food there.
@@sk1nzsk1nz34 your not wrong ,bet you’d be hard pushed to see an English reg now we used to roll up there 4 or 5 handed ,set off Sunday night
Only the southbound one open now. 😩

Hi sherralin Thank you for your episode 👍
Thanks for watching 😁
Thanks Sherralin, , another interesting one. Been to Malaga, saw some sights and went up to Mijas. Don’t take the bus up there. The pot holes are on ‘steroids’ and the roads are a nightmare. We were shaken like beans in a can !!!
Phil - Suffolk. 😮
Thanks for watching 😁
Saw your wagon at a depot today (leicester)
I wanted to come and say hi but I missed you obviously you would have been being tipped or loaded and awaiting in canteen.
Hope they gave you a quick turnaround.
Keep up the good work.
Hi 👋🏻 yes I was loading but there was a bit of a problem with the product, got it sorted in the end. Come and say hi next time. 😁
I can feel your driving experience. You think ahead for possible icy road in the morning. Good call on your part. Mountain road are all the same in any winter and country that have snow.
For my part, in the month of June, I have encounter snow in the mountain of British Columbia, Canada. Not much, but surprising!
My brother used to say “use your knowledge of the road”. And knowing where roads get closed is one of those things. Thanks for watching 😁
Good video, a canny head needed for some of those tight spots - nicely done 👍
Snowing here in Ireland, just thinking about Rosslare Santander and some winter sun in Andalusia 😊. Car or campervan? Decisions 😮
Thank you 😁
Another great video Sherrlin loads of information as always makes for a great watch is there a part 2 ?
Thank you. Hopefully get the reload filmed. 😁
Hi sherralin you are a top class driver enjoying watching your video be safe on your travels.
Thank you so much 🤗
Hi Sherralin great vlog as usual ! just wondered why you tipped the Frozen first if the 8 pls on the back were just around the corner ? keep em coming & thanks.
The first opens a lot earlier and are happy to move other pallets to get theirs early. 😁
It's chilly here in cork ireland also be safe
My friend is in the north, they had a lot of snow up there too ⛄️🥶
Hope you got to see the wonderful Malaga Christmas lights - no rain for months but nobody seems to worry! 🇪🇸
Unfortunately not. They were still up but turned off. It looked like they were stunning.
Beautiful malaga the lights amazing
Bryan S: Ha! You are now speaking MY language! 'Washing Thingy'? Yes, it is pronounced 'CO-IN', (I used to live there!). So you were half right..And yes, it IS an 'Amphitheatre'!...Stay safe and thank you once more...🅱️🙏.
😂😂
Your videos are way better than the so called “Road Legends “,too many calling themselves that,too young to call themselves legends
Thank you 😁
I’m more of a leg-end than legend 😂😂
@@GBtrucklady …Do you originate from Pinvin ?
Yep. Would you be Ian’s brother?
@@GBtrucklady ..Correct
Hi 👋🏻 to you and Ian. Glad you’re enjoying the videos.
😅next time do a hour to hour and half, we love your videos ❤😂🎉
😂😂 Tbh I record far too much. I just deleted the wrong bit this time 🤦🏼♀️😂😂
I take your point about double parking but it's fairly disciplined in comparison with Paris!
😂😂 Paris is like London, a completely different world 😂😂
Hi sherralin nlce video as usual have you ever been over the top of the mountain on the 121 before the tunnel in the snow it’s very challenging stay safe regards bob
Yep many times, in fact I was that way a few weeks ago as they’d got the tunnel closed. 😁👍🏻
Great video and commentary from the cab. , Thank you. The ever changing scenery is unique.
Malaga industrial estates, like many in spain . have a relaxed method of parking i have found out but never a problem. Keep the head compass calibrated= results➡⬅↔ ⬆⬇ 🏁
Just been given provisional details for a collection in Algeciras 😔and then a secret place in france Its a weeks work.
Safe travels
Algeciras is a nice place to walk around, really historic, just keep an eye on your pockets.
Safe trip. 😁
When reversing do you lean out of the window more
🤔 can’t say I use any particular method, sometimes I do look out window, sometimes I don’t, it’s about adapting to the situation.

@peteg6341 😂😂 I got the answer wrong….Doh! 🤪😁
Do you have a directory of safe parking in Europe.
No. Some areas advertise as safe parking but mostly we find out by word of mouth and experience. 😁
Claro que si, España es mucho mas que sus playas.
Increíble historia!
betterroads than england.
Swings and roundabouts, some are, some not.
