Happy Weekend / Bon Weekend / Penwythnos Hapus

Good afternoon all. Hope everyone’s weekend is a splendid and joyous affair. Mine is, I’m doing roast pork later. Just a couple of pictures-

Waiting to load Tesco Brillo pads in Madrid in the nineties. Got there early and chap kept shouting ‘ocho, ocho! maรฑana. Ocho. Maรฑana. Ocho!’ to an increasingly bewildered man and his son. They’d gone home by time we worked out he meant 8 in morning! This was only something like Dads 3rd or 4th trip abroad and my second (first for both of us was Germany).

Like me Dad has always enjoyed variety and in that job one week he could be delivering to Madrid the next he’s hauling logs off a Welsh mountain.

Have a great weekend one and all and thank you for watching my rambles.

SAVE BERTIE

Friends, disturbing news. When I woke up this morning Bertie was gone. I tried ringing but he left his phone in the lorry. Then, just now, I got this disturbing picture. It seems Jason from Chrome Northwest has kidnapped him. Basically unless www.facebook.com/chromenorthwest gets over the 2,000 like hurdle by the end of the day it will be the end of Bertie! Nooooooooo! So quick, LIKE NOW ONWARD!

#TopTips: WTD & EU Drivers Hours

Hullo! So boom, after years of procrastination I finally have a drivers hours video! I’ve tried to simplify it and make it more of a chat than me droning on from a script and I think it’s turned out well. In the description all the chapters are marked so in future you can just skip straight to a point you may need reminding of. Would be great if you can share as much as possible, I know it’s 38 minutes but the legal aspect is only the first 18 minutes, the rest is dispelling the many myths about drivers hours that go around. Don’t forget my email is ALWAYS OPEN if you need advice or some clarification. If I can’t answer I’ll know someone who can. Also if after 24 hours I’ve not replied please email me again with REMINDER in capitals in description, some emails so fall through the cracks in my non existent filing system! So yes email and remember you are never bothering me and I’m always happy to help if I can. luke@lorry-driver.com It’s made me realise I love everything about teaching ...

ANOTHER WEBSITE TWEEK

I've had to have another little tweak to the website. The previous layout was my favourite but people were having problems leaving comments, as was I, so I've had to change it to the magazine format. You can still choose your own layout in the bar at the top. With this layout it gives the most recent post more prominence too which is good. So now when you clip on a blog post it opens into a window, allowing you to read it then like on Facebook or share on Twitter and also leave comments of your own at the bottom. It's always good to see comments people leave on there. Sorry if all this tweaking is annoying anybody but I really want to get it right and for it to be a good place to visit and one you want to interact with. Oh and heres a pretty night shot for you to look at, with Bertie's shiny bonce showing. Thanking you and of course ONWARD!
