- A day in the life to a bulk haulage driver. Starting in a lay-by on a busy road, navigating the narrow roads of Devon to rush hour and busy city’s with a couple of stressful service stations visits

It really opened my eyes to see what HGV life is all about, I for one appreciate what you do❤
Welcome back Jemma, saturday mornings haven’t been the same without your weekly vlogs.
Alright tone it down lover boy 😝
Yep really missed the updates.
I saw a Wains truck outside Harpers a couple weeks ago I waved and flashed lights and some bloke looked up 😂😂 must have thought I was nuts.
💯
Great too have you back Jemma
I have to say you are a great ambassador for a thankless and under appreciated industry , thanks for the upload.
I drove coast to coast in the US since 1988. just retired, now I get to sit and watch the next generation. Thanks for taking us along
What a great video. This is what RUclips is about. Not silly rehashed stuff and adverts. Thank you
Thank you for your comment much appreciated, take care
You’re welcome
How do you stay fit and healthy on the road without a gym ?
Saturday mornings have not been the same this year without your videos, so really pleased to see you back!
Morning coffee and new video from Jemma. Great start of a saturday after a busy week.
Welcome back Jemma
Nice to see you back. Absolutely disgusting that the services dont look after the bathroom facilities for truckers.
Hi Jemz 💎. So pleased to see you back, I was a bit concerned that you were all ok. A great start to the weekend. Thanks for sharing.
Stay safe, take care and safe driving. ❤
Hello from Nashville, Tennessee. I love seeing the countryside and the small villages you drive through. I'd love to take a holiday and drive through some of the areas that I've seen in your videos.
Thank you. I hope one day you will see somerset and the west country for yourself. Take care
Great to see you back Jemma, service stations really need to up their game. Hope that sand came off okay. Stay well 👌🏻
Hey Jemma, hope the house renovation went to plan. Welcome back !😊
i live in British Columbia Canada ,i retired from trucking about 12 years ago,we have electronic logs here too now but were still using paper logs when i retired .i cant believe how restrictive your hours are right down to the last minute,like you said your off duty time is supposed to be for relaxing but if you have to keep such a close eye on the clock the whole time that must be very stressful,you are doing a great job by detailing your movements as you go along and describe what you are doing.i did dump trailer work back in the 70"s and still remember having to watch out for wires and roof corners etc. keep up the good work. yogi.
Thank you for your comment. It is always nice to hear from people from different parts of our world. Take care and happy retirement
Just found your channel and really enjoyed this, thanks. I do a lot of driving through France (car, not lorry) and am always blown away by the difference in the vast quantity of lovely places to stop over there compared to in the U.K.
Just found your channel. It’s educated me a lot about the life of a hgv driver. I’d never have the confidence to drive a big rig. I admire your confidence backing in to some of those narrow spaces. I’ll watch out for you when I’m out on the road 👍
Joe Public doesn’t know the stress and that feeling you get after finding a shower that works whilst living on the road..
I’ve ended up buying a shower that I can charge in the truck and then hide in the trailer and have one as the facilities in the U.K. are that bad!
Great video Jemma,rather you than me down those country lanes!😬
Onboard scales and only one trailer plus you get 45 min rest breaks. Easy life 😉. I have to self load 2 trailers with good guesswork so as to not overload on axle groups and I only get 20mins break after 5 hours duty time 😉. Onya though Jemma for trucking in Blighty. It's not for the faint-hearted. I left it behind over 10 years ago now after having a gut full of English winters. That's what gave me the determination to move to Australia and drive roadtrains. It took a while to get sorted but that's what I do here in Western Australia. No more freezing temperatures for me🙂. If you ever fancy a change of scenery, look me up. Also, I've not heard the word "lorry" spoken for yonks😆. Love it!
It was lovely to see another video. How you work out your driving times always amazes me.
so great to see you again Jem, we've missed you soo much, your vlogs make our week. You are a diamond!!! x
Its hypnotic watching people work
Well it sure beats doing it for yourself 😂
Welcome back Jemma. You've been missed!
Hi Jemma, Great to see you back again. I was afraid you might have been kicked off, like one of Luke C's friends. Presumably that was because of an imbalance between video time and work time. But you're OK - that's the main thing. When I hear your dilemmas about hours, driving time and so on, It makes me appreciate just how free I was driving a small van! Brian
Hey Jemma, I’ve just found your channel and it’s bloody fascinating. So this is just a shout to keep going. I know what it’s like to hit the RUclips wall and don’t even what to think about it for weeks on end…. But the old Al Gore -rhythms don’t like that. Keep pushing if you can, the pressure will lift and you’ll be glad you hung onto the channel. It gets tough, but it really is worth the hassle and you’re taking off a treat!
Hi Jenna nice to see you back another great video what a joke this country is when you just need a shower compared to Europe the facilities for drivers is a total joke pay a fortune to park at services & no shower
2 weeks to fix a shower is shocking. The facilities management should be ashamed of themselves. Great video though Jemma, new subscriber 👋🏻
Hi jemma it's great to see you back again, it's so nice to watch your vlog and have a cuppa on a Saturday morning
Great video you look like you have a interesting job I work for the place you’re showering bag advertising is so pretty boring I was a tramper for years still miss it good to see you back 😃
Welcome back Jemma! I drove passed you on Thursday evening when you were in the lay-by on the A38 - would've stopped for a quick hello, but didn't want to disturb you! Keep the vids coming😀
Welcome back Jemma !! I wondered where you had gotten to.. glad to see your great vids back on my RUclips feed again. Keep on trucking lady!! 🙂
YaaaaY!
You've been missed by many... good to see you back!😊
Hello Jemma new to your channel how nice to young ladies driving trucks, love the way you talk through what's going on, our breaks when I 1st started driving were 3 15mins or a 20mins and 25mins to make up to the 45mins I am now 64years young lol keep up the good work😊 🎉
Good to see you back, I always look forward to your videos. It's always fun to see your driving skills, You make it look so easy! Please stay healthy and be safe until the next time. From Utah USA
Having been reading through all the comments there's quite a few Americans and also some from Australia as well 👍
Greetings from Scotland 🏴
Great Video just stumbled across your YT channel. Excellent to see a young woman showing the guys how to do it correctly and legally well done I will continue to watch your channel 👌
Good to see you back, I grew up in Devon and went to Bicton Agricultural college, your videos are a good connection to my years there.
Welcome back 😁 The shower situation at UK services is disgraceful. I wonder if there a way of sharing your videos to the various companies responsible 🤷🤔
Good to see you back.

Save your pennies,and come to Australian for the wheat season,open country,and experience the land down under on truck driving,good video as always.
Yeehaa, Jems is BACK! I had some great holidays in Kingsbridge growing up. Loved it! Hope the renovations went well. Welcome back, missed my coffee and Jemma vlog on a Saturday morning 🏴👍💯👋 ps, happy new year.
Welcome back Jemma ….I’m sure I speak for all your watchers when I say we’ve all missed you xx
As I've been reading all the comments you definitely do 👍
You made that indoor blindside look easy!......the first vlog of yours I've watched ...and it won't be the last!
Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed and hope you enjoy more. Take care
The road South of Kingsbridge can be a challenge. I've driven it many time with a caravan, will be even tougher with a truck!
So glad you're back it seems ages since you were last sharing your busy life 😊
Good to see you back hope all has be OK .
Great to see you again Jemma

Hi Jemma, lovely to see you back, hope you are well.
I wondered where you’d gone Jemma. Nice to see your wee happy smiley face again. Hope everything is okay with you and yours. 😊
Good to see you back Gemma.
Welcome everyone Jemma missed your videos xxxxxxx
Glad to see you back! 👍
At least you got a shower even if it's luke warm, when I was driving, 1980's into the 90's you were lucky to get a shower once a week ! most of the time it was a strip down wash from your plastic bowl outside the truck with water boiled in the kettle, all very well for blokes but difficult for the Ladies. Good quality fully serviced truck stops were few and far between in the UK then with most only having a sink and toilet if that, different proposition in Europe when I was on the Italy run.
Such an amazing driving skills!
Really good to have you back. I missed your adventures.
Nice driving jemma, i used to live in Devon so i know how tight most of the roads are and how not everyone on the roads likes to yield to hgv,s like your van in your video, i know wains i see them know still,, nice trucks and they always look clean and well looked after, nice to see a young female trucker..good to see the young getting into the industry.
Great to see you back Jemma. Sorry to see your still having shower issues 😢😢
Welcome back Jemma good to see you back!
Great you are back Jemma, really enjoy the weekly videos 😊
A very good Saturday morning to you all from Wellington Somerset

Good to see you back, I was beginning to get worried!
0600 here, got my last DCPC module today then hopefully I'll be fully licenced up and ready to get a job. Great video, subscribed to your channel and looking forward to watching more. Thanks.
Welcome Back Jemma, clearly not the only one a little concerned but glad to see you back 👌
Brilliant Jemma.
It's so wonderful to have you back safe and well.
Instead of using motorway services that are rubbish and sleeping in industrial estates,I was wondering why you don't use truck stops like lymm.
Thanks Jemma take care.
