A SPARKLY TRUCK

You chums, welcome to my first sponsored blog post! As you'll be aware I do love a clean lorry so with this in mind the kind gentleman at Chrome Northwest in Middlewich asked if I'd like to pop in for a wash and pick up some products to try, so naturally I jumped at the chance! http://www.facebook.com/chromenorthwest                                            The soap he used to clean the truck was totes amazeballs! The truck was filthy and the final result you see there is without putting a brush to the truck. Amazing stuff indeed! He then gave me a big goody box of stuff to try! So I shall be trying the various items and reporting back to you. Currently in Heysham and went round the truck with the spray on wax. Its brilliant stuff, called Lucas Slickmist. Put a beautiful shine on the cab and side skirts so that'll be a favourite from now on. Also the Pink (...

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 nor...

SOME VERY SAD NEWS AND A REQUEST

Hello chums, I hope you are well. You may have noticed I've been a little quiet online the past few days. The picture is of my brother in his first week as a truck driver driving my R500, Bruce, when he came to work for Virginia and spent a week with me learning the ropes! Its breaks my heart to tell to that at 9am on Saturday morning he died when his heart failed in hospital after being admitted with pneumonia. He had been ill for a year or so but this was a bolt out of the blue that has left us devastated. He seemed to be getting better. I tried to make a video for this request but I couldn't hold it together long enough to get many words out. He was 32 years old and leaves two young children. So heres the request, the care he has had over the past year has been brilliant, so I have decided to try and raise some money in his memory to help people in the area he lived who need care like he did. So me and the whole family would be so pleased if you could donate anything you cou...

OU LA LA A JAUNT TO FRANCE

Hello chums. How are we all. Heres the latest video, a short trip to France and back. Anyhow I know they've not been of great quality of late in terms of video quality (otherwise still as ramshackle as ever) but I promise they are going to improve soon. I have a brand new Windows 8 laptop in the pipeline along with a new camera so I shall be stepping up a gear. So do stick with me, I promise it'll get better. In the meantime feel free to like or comment and such. ONWARD
