In this video, I have a solar farm delviery and a very wet collection from Wimbledon
As a HGV Truck Driver in the UK, trucking across the country can be challenging especially when its down tight, narrow county lanes.
Join me as I take you along, showing you the loading and unloading, difficult manoeuvres as well as the other challenges that I face on a day to day basis and what I have to do to ovecome them.
If you enjoy the content dont forget it give it a like and why not leave a comment asking any questions you have about becoming HGV Driver and life on the road.
Vlog 324
Another good one John-o. 👍 Totally agree on the electric car front . Horrendous cost to change the batteries if they go wrong, cheaper to scrap the car, good for the environment !!! don't think so .
No far from it with production I'd say more polluting
Interesting vlog John. I hate all this solar stuff on wonderful farmland. It should be producing food, put them on houses, industrial sites and rook over carparks. Take care and thank you.
I agree
@@TruckerJohno totally agree
Hear hear
Another incredible road 🛣️ video in the DAF XF John and and have a great weekend.
Thank you
thats me old yard at chard and axminster transport around 1989 when i worked there CATS......long gone used to see your trucks around.....🐱
I wasn't even in School then, sorry for making you feel old 🤣
John o another great video mate the joys of driving a HGV lorry problems all over the place
If it was always easy then it would be boring
Sounded like a dreadful week!! When it rains it pours. But it can’t rain all the time! 🌧️
I survived
A very good Monday evening to you all from Wellington Somerset
Yep
Great editing jonno on the manouvering... and interesting vlog.. Cheers
Thanks
Another great vlog pal keep up the good work pal 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks, will do
Many thanks loved the video,
Welcome
Another great video.
Thanks
At least you did get a free shower in the thunderstorm at the end. Probably the only affordable thing around that area.
Yeah I should have got my shampoo out 🤣
Excellent video as always, Sounds like you had the week from hell though Johno
It wasn't the best week but I survived
What a week mate the joys of it
Just another day on the office
Hi johno great video mate😊
Thanks
Back in the 80's I used to overnight at the Woolwich Ferry. You could go to the leisure centre for a shower and there were plenty of eateries. Parking was free. I would be surprised if you can still do that nowadays 😂. Also we used to use the ferry as much as possible and claim the Dartford money instead lol😂😂 no receipt and it was either £1 or £2 back then. How times have changed😂
Yeah I don't think you can do any of that now
I'm with you on electric cars. I will give up driving before buying one
Yep I don't fancy driving a bomb
Hi John O I love your latest video & that would be some distance from Taunting Somerset to pick up a trailer in Bonny Scotland 🏴 Pal. Plus if you’ve found it too hot in the South you can have some of the Scottish 🏴 weather as it’s been a cold summer here Pal. Put it this way I’m 51 years old & it’s the first ever cold July in my lifetime & totally 💯% I’ll stick with Diesel ⛽️ & Petrol ⛽️ 💯% Buddy. 👍
Yeah it's not been a great summer, this was definitely the hottest day for me
Excellent video as always John o, hope you had a peaceful night in Wimbledon! Keep up the good work and keep safe! 👍🙂🚛🎾
It was very quite thanks
yay got to love story time with john-o
Ha ha enjoy
@@TruckerJohno always
hi jonho. Bloody lorry drivers parking overnight in OUR road. LOL. Hope all was quiet anyway. Travel safely.
Yep lovely and peaceful I hope I didn't upset too many people
Hi john o good vid i liked the part when you said somebody said i should put it on a tee shirt (we'll figure it out) that was me take care
Thank you
@@TruckerJohno I thought of another one " it is what it is". Lol. Take care John.
Vauxhall Combo for the win - welcome to my world. I drive one of these (on 275K miles on a 2017) as a national same day courier. That was your punishment for the truck letting you down. Sorry you had a rubbish start to that week
It is what it is, the Vauxhall part was painful though 🤣🤣
Another great video John
Thanks
John great video again shame about the start of week with your truck
Let's hope she behaves herself lol
Time will tell
I agree with your views on electric cars/vehicles John"O, all electric vehicles are doing for pollution, is move any pollutants from the vehicle to the ruddy power station, I've just purchased a new car went for a mild hybrid, so I did investigate going electric, 'but' until EV's sound like a V8 or a Ferrari & the infrastructure to service them appears, I feel going electric is a fools game,... x
It's a good way to throw away a lot of money
@@TruckerJohno Absolutely..
Fantastic video, Mate
Thanks
Sorry you’d a crap time with lorry repairs.Bet you kept all off till you felt lorry charged.I think you are correct on solar farm/electric cars.Thanks Johno watching last half now.a.okx
Yeah still having issues with the truck now
Johno hope you didnt see any Wombles lol
No they must have been hiding
They could have had you on a closer to home job.............like Charlton.......but not by going along Charlton Rd, under a low bridge..........pulling a high box sider 😂😂😂
I totally agree John. I'll not buy an electric car if I can help it.
I herd a truck tried going under that bridge on Charlton road a couple of weeks ago
@TruckerJohno sure did. Best bit was he went down hill not up 😂😂😂
Wow tried the hard way 🤣
02:27 Ooh Matron
🤣🤣
Hope your truck starts behaving itself from.now on
Would be nice
@@TruckerJohno enjoy your weekend buddy
Make you right about EV cars,whats more of a worry is how many of these productive fields are being put under solar,we are going to be very green but starving.
I'm pretty sure there's got to be a limit on how many can be put up within a certain area
When it goes wrong you think what did I do to diverse this. It can only get better.
I don't take it to heart it's the nature of the job to just go wrong sometimes
I'll be one of the last ones with you to get an electric vechile
I'd still rather walk 🤣
The day I buy an electric car will be - never!!!👍
Same
I love gas cars never electricity. It's another money making scam. People are dieing to make these shit cars. Great video
And more dangerous as more likely to catch fire
Did ya do any Wombles spotting.. 🤔
Na they was off that day
Good one John o I feel like you about electric car's but I heard that Volvo are pulling out of the contract and Still going to make petrol and diesel vehicles after the 2035 ????
I'm sure they will along with many others
Please stop going full screen so often please
Yes Sir 🫡
I hate electric vehicles. Give me a big old V8 any day.
I'd take a 3 cylinder over an electric car
Please stop cutting to you so oftnplease
I will take note 👍
