- A day in the life to a bulk haulage driver. Starting in a lay-by on a busy road, navigating the narrow roads of Devon to rush hour and busy city’s with a couple of stressful service stations visits

It really opened my eyes to see what HGV life is all about, I for one appreciate what you do❤
Welcome back Jemma, saturday mornings haven’t been the same without your weekly vlogs.
Alright tone it down lover boy 😝
Yep really missed the updates.
I saw a Wains truck outside Harpers a couple weeks ago I waved and flashed lights and some bloke looked up 😂😂 must have thought I was nuts.
💯
Great too have you back Jemma
I have to say you are a great ambassador for a thankless and under appreciated industry , thanks for the upload.
Nice to see you back. Absolutely disgusting that the services dont look after the bathroom facilities for truckers.
I drove coast to coast in the US since 1988. just retired, now I get to sit and watch the next generation. Thanks for taking us along
What a great video. This is what TH-cam is about. Not silly rehashed stuff and adverts. Thank you
Thank you for your comment much appreciated, take care
You’re welcome
How do you stay fit and healthy on the road without a gym ?
Saturday mornings have not been the same this year without your videos, so really pleased to see you back!
2 weeks to fix a shower is shocking. The facilities management should be ashamed of themselves. Great video though Jemma, new subscriber 👋🏻
Hello from Nashville, Tennessee. I love seeing the countryside and the small villages you drive through. I'd love to take a holiday and drive through some of the areas that I've seen in your videos.
Thank you. I hope one day you will see somerset and the west country for yourself. Take care
Morning coffee and new video from Jemma. Great start of a saturday after a busy week.
Welcome back Jemma
Hey Jemma, hope the house renovation went to plan. Welcome back !😊
Joe Public doesn’t know the stress and that feeling you get after finding a shower that works whilst living on the road..
I’ve ended up buying a shower that I can charge in the truck and then hide in the trailer and have one as the facilities in the U.K. are that bad!
Great video Jemma,rather you than me down those country lanes!😬
Britain is a complete embarrassment to lorry drivers both foreign and domestic. High prices and very low standards.
Hi Jemz 💎. So pleased to see you back, I was a bit concerned that you were all ok. A great start to the weekend. Thanks for sharing.
Stay safe, take care and safe driving. ❤
Great to see you back Jemma, service stations really need to up their game. Hope that sand came off okay. Stay well 👌🏻
Great video you look like you have a interesting job I work for the place you’re showering bag advertising is so pretty boring I was a tramper for years still miss it good to see you back 😃
Its hypnotic watching people work
Well it sure beats doing it for yourself 😂
Welcome back 😁 The shower situation at UK services is disgraceful. I wonder if there a way of sharing your videos to the various companies responsible 🤷🤔
Onboard scales and only one trailer plus you get 45 min rest breaks. Easy life 😉. I have to self load 2 trailers with good guesswork so as to not overload on axle groups and I only get 20mins break after 5 hours duty time 😉. Onya though Jemma for trucking in Blighty. It's not for the faint-hearted. I left it behind over 10 years ago now after having a gut full of English winters. That's what gave me the determination to move to Australia and drive roadtrains. It took a while to get sorted but that's what I do here in Western Australia. No more freezing temperatures for me🙂. If you ever fancy a change of scenery, look me up. Also, I've not heard the word "lorry" spoken for yonks😆. Love it!
Welcome back Jemma. You've been missed!
Hi Jenna nice to see you back another great video what a joke this country is when you just need a shower compared to Europe the facilities for drivers is a total joke pay a fortune to park at services & no shower
Just found your channel. It’s educated me a lot about the life of a hgv driver. I’d never have the confidence to drive a big rig. I admire your confidence backing in to some of those narrow spaces. I’ll watch out for you when I’m out on the road 👍
It was lovely to see another video. How you work out your driving times always amazes me.
i live in British Columbia Canada ,i retired from trucking about 12 years ago,we have electronic logs here too now but were still using paper logs when i retired .i cant believe how restrictive your hours are right down to the last minute,like you said your off duty time is supposed to be for relaxing but if you have to keep such a close eye on the clock the whole time that must be very stressful,you are doing a great job by detailing your movements as you go along and describe what you are doing.i did dump trailer work back in the 70"s and still remember having to watch out for wires and roof corners etc. keep up the good work. yogi.
Thank you for your comment. It is always nice to hear from people from different parts of our world. Take care and happy retirement
It seems daft but it’s nice to have your videos and your smiling face as always great vid 👍👍🤪
Not daft at all, we all missed her 👍
Save your pennies,and come to Australian for the wheat season,open country,and experience the land down under on truck driving,good video as always.
Hi jemma it's great to see you back again, it's so nice to watch your vlog and have a cuppa on a Saturday morning
A very good Saturday morning to you all from Wellington Somerset
Hello Jemma new to your channel how nice to young ladies driving trucks, love the way you talk through what's going on, our breaks when I 1st started driving were 3 15mins or a 20mins and 25mins to make up to the 45mins I am now 64years young lol keep up the good work😊 🎉
Great communicator -- Interesting adventure.
Hi Jemma, Great to see you back again. I was afraid you might have been kicked off, like one of Luke C's friends. Presumably that was because of an imbalance between video time and work time. But you're OK - that's the main thing. When I hear your dilemmas about hours, driving time and so on, It makes me appreciate just how free I was driving a small van! Brian
Been following on insta, didn't know you were on here. Nice to watch your video.
Welcome back Jemma! I drove passed you on Thursday evening when you were in the lay-by on the A38 - would've stopped for a quick hello, but didn't want to disturb you! Keep the vids coming😀
Glad to see you back agin.👍
The road South of Kingsbridge can be a challenge. I've driven it many time with a caravan, will be even tougher with a truck!
Hiya Jemma, great to have you back 😊 I hope you had a lovely Xmas/new year? Brill video as always, they're always a fab start to weekends ❤ stay safe, our queen of the road 😎
Hey ! Good to see you back.
At 5:57 I saw you go past in Harbertonford, Devon at about quater to 10. Thats me sat in the bus stop...😅
Great share enjoyed the video. Morning coffee and watching the great journey you shared. Keep the shiny side up and the rubber side down. Stay safe and take care 😎
Great Video just stumbled across your YT channel. Excellent to see a young woman showing the guys how to do it correctly and legally well done I will continue to watch your channel 👌
Good to see you back, I was beginning to get worried!
Great to see you back Jemma. Sorry to see your still having shower issues 😢😢
Glad to see you back, really enjoy watching your videos
HAPPY NEW LUNAR YEAR! HERE IN VIETNAM WE CELEBRATE "TET".
THINGS WE LEARN FROM JEMMA! WHO WOULD HAVE FIGURED AGGREGATE WOULD HAVE SUPPORTED PLANTS GROWTH.
Another really enjoyable video thanks. Plus I hope you enjoyed your stirfry.
Hey Jemma, I’ve just found your channel and it’s bloody fascinating. So this is just a shout to keep going. I know what it’s like to hit the TH-cam wall and don’t even what to think about it for weeks on end…. But the old Al Gore -rhythms don’t like that. Keep pushing if you can, the pressure will lift and you’ll be glad you hung onto the channel. It gets tough, but it really is worth the hassle and you’re taking off a treat!
Another great video Jemma.
At least you got a shower even if it's luke warm, when I was driving, 1980's into the 90's you were lucky to get a shower once a week ! most of the time it was a strip down wash from your plastic bowl outside the truck with water boiled in the kettle, all very well for blokes but difficult for the Ladies. Good quality fully serviced truck stops were few and far between in the UK then with most only having a sink and toilet if that, different proposition in Europe when I was on the Italy run.
Welcome back Jemma
Good to see you back.
A very good Sunday evening beautiful from Alan in Lowestoft hun xx ❤😊
Great to see you back
Never had a microwave in my truck (back in the stone age)... Ran a 2 burner gas stove on the drivers side fuel tank (only 1000lt of diesel so no problem). Nothing better than a hot cuppa.
Good to see you back Jemma. Worried if you were O.K. Stay safe. Mick
Nice to see you back on & keeping us farmers talking about the weather 😂
Great to see you back on the TH-cams.
Good to have you back. Love how you just get on with it and cope with everything so well. 👍
Lovely to see you back! 😃👍
Just found your channel and really enjoyed this, thanks. I do a lot of driving through France (car, not lorry) and am always blown away by the difference in the vast quantity of lovely places to stop over there compared to in the U.K.
