Top Trucks No. 2

Here loading fruit in northern Italy
Happy new year friends! The good ship Michelle* will always till the day I shuffle off this mortal coil be my all time favourite truck, for so many reasons. However when it comes to a league table (not that I’ve thought beyond 2) this beast is second. There was just something so fantastically right with this truck, air all round, 580 horses and it looks like that, I mean come on it’s simply beautiful. And let’s face it a big power Scania hooked up to a Chereau fridge is a little bit iconic in the transport world, possibly more than any other truck & trailer combination. A combination that built so many transport companies.

I took her on her first run, to Italy where this is taken reloading fruit for home in 2016 for Whites Transport Services Ltd

(*Michelle is my FH16 750 at Virginia International Logistics)

#ThrowbackThursday; Where It All Began….

 #ThrowbackThursday - So if you’ve followed me for long you will already know I’ve had a rather ridiculous career working for every man and his dog, driving everything from vans to rigids to artics to drawbars to buses and coaches. I’m really proud of my bonkers career, it’s been absolutely amazing! But, my driving career didn’t start on the road, it started on a landfill, in a Moxy! For pretty my whole childhood Dad was a mechanic who drove on the side. I used to spend lots of time with him, going away in lorries or spending the weekend with him in the workshop. One job he had was for a local plant hire company and this was one of the best as back in those days when no one really cared much about H&S, I got to drive and play with machines in the yard. It got to point where I could lift engines and axles etc with pinpoint precision with the mini digger, helping Pops. Can’t dig a hole to save my life tho! One day one of the bosses saw me gently lifting the engine back into a Mox...
