THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

Hello everyone, hope you're all well. I'd just like to say one more thank you for all the wonderful kind messages and the amazing amount of money you've raised in my brothers memory. The funeral went well last week, well as well as a funeral could. The whole family have been so pleased with the money raised. As a little aside at the pub after the funeral where we had lots of pictures of Simon so I asked young Ellie which was her favourite picture of her Dad and after thinking and looking at them all she choose the one I took of him driving my lorry, the one on the charity page. That made a smile, and cry a bit. You never know how important a picture is going to be till later, my whole family hate me taking pictures of them! But thankfully I do it anyway. I'm going to get it made up and framed for her bedroom.

Anyway thank you. If you've sent me a message or commented I will get round to replying, as you can imagine its all been a bit chaotic. I'm planning on normal service resuming next week! ONWARD

Hello chums. Waterford Show was a great time, met loads of great people and saw lots of brilliant trucks. Im gonna do a blog post later in the week with pics and the like. If you have any of you that you had taken with me and Bertie please send them so I can share. lorrydriverluke@live.com. I met a certain someone at the show as you can see in the pic, I think Bertie's new name plate sums the situation up! Anyhow, have a little bonus video. Of me on a milk round with my Dad.

Looking To The Future……..

So, here goes then! I’m a LinkedIn novice, having spent a lifetime as a driver! Background- after a serious car accident in 2020 that very nearly killed me I started thinking about the future, as you do when you came so close to not having one! Driving was my dream job, I’ve driven so many things from minibuses and coaches to trucks & vans and even plant machiny like articulated dumper trucks & diggers in a career that crossed 20+ countries in Europe from Portugal to Hungary to Norway to Finland to Ireland and everywhere in between so many times over a near 25 year career.. I had the time of my life, it was amazing, but…… I’ve done all I dreamed of. My CV looks ridiculous because I wanted to experience everything, which I did. But this has left me wondering what’s next? Do I simply repeat everything over the next 20 years. Which would be easy but not fulfilling or do I strike out on a new path? I’m choosing the latter.   I’m incredibly experienced as a driver but obvio...
