Since leaving the industry, there are many things that I do miss about the lorry driving. The binging and bonging from trucks is certainly not one of those things that I miss 😅 Another great could of videos DTW 👌! I am really enjoying the content that you're putting out. As someone else has said in the comments, the FCL clothing looks of decent quality. Maybe a limited run DTW/FCL collab on hoodies for the future 😁? - Scott
@@ScottandAlana4x4 Merch and sponsorships is something I really don’t want to get into. I know some companies set up a merch section on their own website but I don’t think that would happen any time soon.
@@DTWTheWanderingMuzungu I was looking forward to a nice hoodie with your face emblazoned across the back of it 😉😁. But on a serious note, we have found stickers to be a great thing to have on us and we are looking into getting mini stickers made up in due course. When we have exchanged stickers with someone, Alana generally puts theirs on her SatNav case. We took a bunch with us to a recent show and 2 people put our sticker straight onto their cars. Another person has taken 1 away to put onto their toolbox, another person has taken 2 for their sons gaming wall and we left 2 on the car as a trial and they also got taken. 😃 - Scott
I loved going to Ireland. The last 2 times I went from Fishguard. Off in Rosslaire, 20 minutes drive to small town called aenniscorthy. Lovely country, very friendly people. Stay safe, mate
This vid is a year in the making if thats the K Club!! Totally agree, Irish service stations are mostly brilliant places to stop - the Irish Government bought plenty of land when they developed them so no shortage of parking and they dont surcharge fuel like they do in the UK.
The last time I went from Fishguard to Rosslare by ferry was in the early sixties,my Dad's car was loaded aboard with articulated hinged planks under the wheel axles front and back by crane , each vehicle individually,and the same the other end at Rosslare.On arrival at Rosslare we showed our passports and the guy said to Dad, "have you got yer Green Card?" Dad said what's that for, the guy said "Its for when you're having an accident.", Dad said "well we shant be having any accidents" So the Guy said"OK, Off you go and have a nice holiday!"We set off down to Bantry, I remember all the bright pink and purple fuchsias growing wild in the hedgerows, and every shop had a bar in it!
Great video. I’ve Ireland my self. Never drove or rode there. Just normally fly with Ryanair and stay in Dublin a few days. Keep saying I’m going I venture more out when I go.
Another great trip with you thanks. What does the blue ATA sign on your colleague's trailer mean as opposed to the usual TIR I see normally? Ross 🏴

Another fantastic video as always, great to see you over this direction , even though I'm in Northern Ireland, I trucked all round Ireland for Surefreight for 12 years. And a bit of useless information, Naas is pronounced Nay-ce or Neigh-ce . Keep the vlogs coming mate 👍
Fabulous video as always, Was that the K Club golf course that you were delivering to ? Hopefully we won’t have to wait too long before you release some more of your wonderful videos 🤞🙏

First class vid mate as always 👌. Loads of content, beats me how you remember all these short cuts across country. Looking forward to your next trip.
Nice one!! We lived in Ireland(Bandon, Cobh Co Cork 1973-80) Used Fishguard-Rosslare on a couple of occasions!!

Good video again. God knows how you remember all the bumf with all the ferry movements and tacho modes. 👍👍
It takes awhile but there's only so many rules and quirks to remember.

Nice video, did you enjoy the R407, the road from M7 J9a to Clane, I drive it regularly in Artic for Supervalu
