Ben... nothing worse than realizing a mistake!! I once had a load (30ft trailer , all handball grocery products etc) where the first four drops had been loaded bacwards!! Sad to say, the air was a bit blue on that day, figuratively speaking!!!
Looking forward to part 2. Don't know how you manage with 9 hours off then doing a ten hour driving day. And travelling across Europe. It mustn't be as big as I think😂😂.
Hiya mate is the restaurant at Orte still open? I did Rome regularly back in the late 80s and stopped there most times. Now doing the odd F1 trip. And enjoying it all over again.
Good question & I believe the answer is because of the amount of extra diesel we carry on the fridges though there’s plenty of trucks with larger capacity tanks than mine & my fridge combined 🤷♂️🤦🏻♂️
Sivep is straight off the tunnel in Calais for all our Customs & veterinary checks plus I had a drop on for Holland I believe (if I’ve got the right video) & also we need our rest periods as late in the trip as possible to allow us more time to load & get back.
Excellent timing nd planning
Thanks a lot

Haha, it happens which is why I wanted to share it mate. It’s not all sun, sea & sangria is it 😉
I done Italy for a lot of years in yesteryear love to go back in a truck to see how much it as changed any offers as a passenger
Sure but you’ll have to be quick.
Back on normal cam. Brill.
Haha, I’ll be incorporating both in the future when I get more used to the 360.
Looking forward to part 2. Don't know how you manage with 9 hours off then doing a ten hour driving day. And travelling across Europe. It mustn't be as big as I think😂😂.
Haha the 10hr drives are usually easier believe it or not as the total day is only around 12hrs with breaks 😃
im still in IC with breathing problems.OP went fine.
Glad to hear you’re ok buddy. Hurry up & we can get a trip in 😃
Morning, have you seen the statue of Rocky Marciano (world class boxer - deceased) on a roundabout, just below the actual village in Ripa Teatina ?
I saw something about it last time but didn’t get chance to stop. I’ll look better next time mate thank you.
Nice video
Thanks Wendy ☺️
Great video Ben we all make little boo boos now and again keep em coming

Great video mate, Thanks for taking us along! Shit happens as they say! At least you got everything off which you wanted for that day. We move on :)
Cheers Ryan & yes, exactly 😃
Hiya mate is the restaurant at Orte still open? I did Rome regularly back in the late 80s and stopped there most times. Now doing the odd F1 trip. And enjoying it all over again.
I believe so mate. I did a few trips on F1 - different ball game. There’s videos of the trips in my library if you check them out 👍🏽
Still better than driving in the UK.
You’re right mate 👍🏽
👍
👍🏽👍🏽😂😂
Gotta get that volume sorted pal.
Yes I need a cable for my mic to phone 🤦🏻♂️
Do you ever go near to Bari, Brindisi, Lecce area in Puglia?
We do Bari every now & then mate yes. Probably one of our longest regular trips.
if any man tells you he has never made a mistake then he is a liar, glad it worked out well for you in the end
Haha you’re right there Merv. Cheers mate 😃
Question for you, when going through the tunnel why not just turn the fridge/freezer off rather than waiting for an escort?
Good question & I believe the answer is because of the amount of extra diesel we carry on the fridges though there’s plenty of trucks with larger capacity tanks than mine & my fridge combined 🤷♂️🤦🏻♂️
Do you not like your new 360 camera?
Yes just learning the editing & trying to keep videos coming. It’s a battle ☺️
You've probably said before but why do you have to be escorted through the tunnel?
Safety measures after the fatal fire there some years ago 🤷♂️
Hi Ben, any news on Mozza ?
He’s been on holiday so I’ve not spoken to him in a while.
why go to folkstone to get to italy from your depot when you can get brittany ferries to france and get your break in as well
Sivep is straight off the tunnel in Calais for all our Customs & veterinary checks plus I had a drop on for Holland I believe (if I’ve got the right video) & also we need our rest periods as late in the trip as possible to allow us more time to load & get back.
Shit happens Ben
It does Ray, you’re right. Cheers pal 👍🏽
Ben,your video are great but the sound is no good.All you tube lorry drivers are the same.😢
Mainly because of the road noise conflicting with the mics mate - sorry. #musttryharder 😉
Is it me or is there no sound on this video ?
Might be you mate though it IS quiet I’m afraid 🤦🏻♂️
Sound is crap.
I know - sorry 😔
