Currently roughly 45 deg C in NYC. Where I live is by the water, is roughly 40 deg C. That has been the case since mid-May. Once July comes around add 10 deg to that. VERY HOT summer this year, apparently. A/C not really helping matters.
Welcome back mate, Glad to see a new video, Enjoyed watching it! This weather is too hot haha doesn't help being ginger! Burn in the shade me.. With reversing how do you find best to determine where the back of your trailer is? Like on the test having to get it in the right section? ... Roll on Friday my birthday woo! Managed to book it off wheyy watch it start raining now though just my luck 😂
Happy birthday for Friday mate! 🤞🏻 it stays dry for you. For the reverse you kind of get used to the size of them tbh so you can judge it pretty well after a while
@@Life_of_Darren Thanks Darren, Appreciate that, Smoking the brisket went really good, Was so nice! Took about 8.5 hours, Going to try some Ribs on Friday I think 😋.. Yeah I guess so, Will find out when I start my lessons how well I take it all in. Cheers mate
Welcome back to work Darren. Hope you had a restful vacation. Good to see you back trucking also wanted to let you know my wife loves watching you your wife and LB out and about. She really dig it so we watched the Scotland holiday nice peace, and God bless. Keep on trucking.🙏💯🇺🇸🇬🇧
@Life_of_Darren all went well on my first class 1 day. I was in a MAN truck curtain side, multi drop in London. I'm pretty sure you and your vids got me through a 13 hour day with no problem. Very tight in places but just took my time. A big thank you mate for all the little tips
New to your channel. Very interesting I have to admit. I don't drive lorries ro trucks. Do you own your rig? Can we have a tour? Would you recommend it for a career change?
Hi bud thanks for watching, glad you’re enjoying the content, I don’t currently own my own rig but it is something I would like to do one day, as for tours I could do some more no problems I’ve done a few on previous videos if want to see in the meantime. Personally I love driving the class one trucks, you get a good sense of freedom etc, fun to drive but it’s very long hours (it does go quick though) , so if you don’t mind the long hours then give it a go.
I listen to a few tbh and depends on distance I’ll be covering etc, pure dead gaming (for gaming content etc) bad movies rule (for movies) and how rogan for the long drives as there normally about 3hrs an episode. May as well plug my own podcast that I do with a mate of mine 🤓 six and below movie podcast, it’s available on TH-cam for the video or Spotify for audio only Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/34pbEh660sJg1dWm4MQxhR?si=PLXAP3ZMSransiGxrMPF_w Yt: th-cam.com/video/lAY3pp_7gi0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=pq171sfOUW-_UxnB

New to your channel. Very interesting I have to admit.

Would you recommend it for a career change?

Hi Darren
What podcasts do you recommend to keep myself entertained in the truck? Cheers mate.
I listen to a few tbh and depends on distance I’ll be covering etc, pure dead gaming (for gaming content etc) bad movies rule (for movies) and how rogan for the long drives as there normally about 3hrs an episode.
May as well plug my own podcast that I do with a mate of mine 🤓 six and below movie podcast, it’s available on TH-cam for the video or Spotify for audio only

Cheers mate for the suggestions. I'm already listening to your podcast mate 😉
Does your company know about your TH-cam videos ?
Yeah, spoken to them about it when I first joined the company, there happy with it as it’s good promotion for them too
Used to leave London around 6ish got Birmingham around 8ish thats when traffic used to build up .used to go Dudley regularly
Before digital cards came in used to write taqos so now it's lot easier now
Ong I remember the days when you had to carry a pack of cards around with you for 28 days 😂 the digital cards are so much better
Miss driving lorries but so many stupid driver's who just don't realize that lorries need extra turn and more room. In London driving is bad
It’s crazy the amount of people are oblivious to trucks, the driving standards have gone down hill lately
