Thanking you

Good morrow people's. My daft little site seems to get busier and busier as the months roll by and it's fantastic to see. Not to mention unexpected. So I'd just like to say thank you to all of you that visit and watch my various videos or read my inane ramblings. It's looking like I'll hit 10,000 hits for August, the highest month so far. That's nuts!

Also I'm going to ask if I can do a Denmark & Sweden run soon so I can make another video diary.

In the mean time here's a pic of two new and rather fine looking Magnums. I'd never even sat in one before and when it came to getting out I nearly fell out. They are strange trucks layout wise even after all these years. They've a very busy life ahead with two Irish chaps that do a lot of Italy.


ONWARD!

The Flexibility of In-House Training, Without The Cost

I offer you all the advantages of having an in house trainer without the cost or commitment.

Everyone who attends my courses and your office staff will be given my contact details and told I’m available at any time to help and advise as required. I’m always here to help customers, basic...

A SHORT DAF XF REVIEW

DAF Review So, one of most common questions I'm asked lately is what I think of the DAF. Obviously for a long time time I've mostly driven Volvos and Scanias and before this job it was well over a decade since I last tramped full time in a DAF (for HSF). As you know though I had driven later models and hated the body XF with a passion!  When the current version came out DAF seemed very confidant it would change my mind about them in our Twitter exchanges but I thought how different can it be? The answer? A lot. In some ways its like a completely different truck despite being almost identical in looks. Firstly- the gearbox. The auto on previous DAFs was a fupping disaster and everyone knew it! Show, jerky and just generally rubbish in a way no auto should be this late in the day. That's completely changed, for the vast majority of the time it's indistinguishable from an iShift (that having long been the good standard). Yes it has its odd moments but they are very rare an...
