Since the blog will be low on pictures for a week or two while I wait for my phone to be replaced I thought I'd pst some of my favourites from the past year to try and maintain your interest in my little site! The first year of my new R440, Holly!

We start with Hollys birthday last week, I thought I'd mark the occasion since I was in the yard with a picture of her next to her mother Doris, a '97 Streamline





In the mountains of Snowdonia with a UK Mail trailer earlier this year




I quite like the contrast between dark and light on this one! Listen to me sounding all arty!




In a warehouse, how exciting!




Early morning in the yard washing and fuelling




I was on the company Christmas card last year!




Outside my parents house last Christmas




Parked up on the motorway in Belgium 2 days before Christmas because the police wouldn't let trucks move, arghhhhh




Proper filthy!




Parked up on the M25 last December! It took some getting out at 4am I can tell you, but we did it.




Dirty and dark in Dublin




And finally her first day on the road, here with a brand new trailer.




So that's a brief run through of Holly the lorry's first year on the road. It's been quite eventful, and she's performed faultlessly. Here's to another year. ONWARD...

Some Pretty Pictures

 Someone asked to see pictures of this so here she is. The Volvo Dual Clutch 540 I took to Italy to review. Actually probably no word of a lie the single best truck I’ve ever driven. The Virginia 750 will always be my favourite but technologically this was on another level entirely. The dual clutch is a sublime driving experience, the adaptive up and downhill as well as flat cruise control with engine brake makes everything so effortless. It literally went over the Alps with minimal driver intervention. Thanks to Martin Tomlinson at Volvo for making it possible and Pete White for giving me the perfect run and Truck & Driver Magazine for printing the review. Hope to get into reviews like this much more when driving again. Have a great day all. Have a great evening all
