    Welcome to my local! Cat and Fiddle road must feature in dozens of my videos, even took my advanced test over there. The biggest upset shown on this video was at 0:15 - 0:20 when the council dumped loads of ditch digging waste material taking away one of the best layby's to have a break on, fantastic views and you'd get 3 or 4 wagons on there, now only that little bit remains and is regularly taken up by a car or cars parking right in the middle of it and going for a walk all day. We last delivered to Buxton water plant when they had the extension done. I could not believe how many lorries were loading there, especially when you think all they seemed to have was one 7.5 tonne lorry doing the deliveries in the early days! They must have turned the tap on a bit more! 😉👍The pipe line from the source in Buxton to the plant caused grief and traffic jams for best part of a year as it followed the road. Where you paused on the roundabout you were looking over a recent railway goods type area to ease the train traffic taking limestone up to Manchester and beyond. About 8 or 9 trains a day go from Breedon and Tarmac alone from the two quarries on the south side adjacent to the A515 apart from several from Tarmac a bit further on from the water plant. Yes we have snow, have had for a few days, snowing most of today and still doing tonight, not ventured out since last week. Good informative and entertaining video again and enjoyed seeing some local roads. All the best.

    Howdy, Trucker, Happy New Year. Did you get Duane Eddy to do the twangy guitar piece at the end? 😂 You must've taken minutes to find those old clips, the only thing is I can remember them first time around. 😂 We tend to get a lot of weather up here in Sunderland too m8. Seriously though, another class informative video, thanks 👍

    A fair few crossing of the double whites and dangerous driving. I'd report him with the footage.

      I'd understand it if he was flying along but he was doing quite the opposite. I have a 13.6 metre trailer on and stayed in the lane and kept uo with him too 😂😂

    Either this guy doesn't know how to drive, has his missus sitting next to him telling him what to do or he's still pissed from the New Years celebrations. I guess the latter is the case.
