Memories, Black wood engineering, years ago were you backed across the road i would go on down to the end of the road and back in offside to the cast material in, tighter than my brother-in-law to back in, did they cast ballast weights for forklift trucks. For many years as a steering wheel attendant from 1973 to 2014, I never did a lot of box work, I was a bulk tipper at that time. Well done chap i enjoy watching and doing the miles with you.
Martyn mate all your plans for going to Europe driving must be hard but you really seem happy at your job more relaxed pity about the reversing lol😮😅😊😅😊😅😊😊
Interesting vlog once again. Not that I'm going on containers as only a couple of weeks left on my digi card before it runs out. Then be on van's for 2 years before I get to the big R
Plenty of floggers show the boxes on and off at Southampton and have also made educational vids on how the locks and skellies work there. I dont see why you can't too.
Like many HGV drivers your behavior on the the road is first class, I admire your ability to handle tractor and trailer with such ease in often difficult situations seeing such blogs must show the average driver why we should respect you and your and the majority of your colleagues.
Awesome vlog as always Martyn. I've never done containers before, it's something that I wouldn't mind having a go at one day. I wouldn't worry about the reverse Martyn, we all make little errors from time to time, I'm sure Claire won't let you forget about it any time soon lol. Keep up the great work and stay safe out there Martyn.
Cracking video, never got the job I went for this week but will keep looking! Been reading my new copy of truckers handbook, seems a really handy book!
Have you ever driven with Mærsk container before we have a container here in Kalundborg from Mærsk Sealand moved from Copenhagen to here because it is easier and sail to And thank you in advance for always your good videos and your mood makes me happy❤❤❤
Loved the vlog Martyn. I must admit I didn't expect it but it was good to watch. Hope you had a blast with Claire with the caravan at the weekend. Take care.
Enjoying the video Martyn. When my hubby worked at Shell Chemicals in Carrington, Manchester, he was on security, and no matter which road you used to drive onto the site, there was always pictures of cameras with a line through them, which obviously means no cameras allowed. Also, because of the nature of the site, there were no naked flames allowed, so workers were not allowed to carry matches or lighters on their person. They would have to hand them in to the security lodges, and they would collect them on their way out. If anyone was caught with any on their persons (security were allowed to do random searches), the worker would be immediately dismissed, no questions asked. Also, the site had their own fire engine and ambulance for emergencies, and they and security were one of the few vehicles in the country who used blue lights and sirens on their vehicles which they could use on public roadways. Whilst you were being searched at Checkpoint Charlie🤣, you could have asked them. Security know all the rules. You would know then whether it was ok or not to film.
Really enjoying your visits to Southampton Docks , Martyn is there any chance you could set up your camera outside so we can see the trailer shorten great vlog as normal
Loving the mid week vlog Martyn👍🏻…also DAFs do oversteer easily compared to the Volvo so don’t beat yourself up to much about that reverse (Claire will probably do that for you 😂)…really enjoying you doing container work,I’ve always steered away from it but you never know now 👍🏻hope you and Claire had a great relaxing weekend…safe travels to you both
Hi buddy, just watch the video and noticed your loaded 20ft box was in position 4. It should be in position 3 when loaded. DVSA will have you for this if you get pulled. Great vlog as always 👍
Great vlog as always Mart, watching one of your CCL vlogs last night I presume you still love the auxiliary Brake on the DAF lol. I enjoy those vlogs too but obviously for you as a driver must have felt bored where as this time around your going all over. How’s your arthritis now since being back in containers?
Hi Martyn, just subscribed to your channel. Excellent vlogs by the way. I used to live on Afon village near Rogerstone and get to see lots of the old areas I used to know with you living near Blackwood. Did you ever consider working for Gerry Jones as I recall seeing this company locally? Steve now in Torrevieja, Spain
Hi jenko great mid week video mate was not expecting that made my day. On that steep hill on the left was there old terraced homes that was empty due to something toxic but been demolished??. Great video again mate 😊
Yeah Caerphilly County Borough Council where me and Martyn lives demolished them as they had the 2 highest traffic pollution in the UK outside London. I’ve past there for years when visiting my sister in Caerleon.
I get it, you love being out and about and are handsomely rewarded for it (hopefully!). But jeez there must be times when you wonder if it's worth it. Myself, personally, have a short temper and an even shorter fuse so wouldn't last 5 minutes in your job. Respect 👍
Do you not put the trailer into 20ft config? Noticed you didn't mention anything about it on the docks just did twist locks and slapped the container on
Very best of luck in your new job
Great vlogg again Martyn thanks 🙏 for your knowledge as well keep on trucking 🚚🚚
18K Subscribers Nice one Martyn😀😀
Nice one Jenko. Great video buddy. Keep them coming 👍
Bet that reverse gave Claire a good giggle 😂😂😂😂

Brilliant vlog Martyn, hope you had a good restful weekend and bank holiday Monday away in your caravan! 😊

Hi mate hope you and Chaire are well
Nice one Martin👍
Great vid jenco interesting
Can you travel with the trailer shortened?
39:57 have u ever thought of doing training videos, or going in to training school to train new drivers ?
nice one Martyn, good info on the container work. stay safe.👍
Hi from Trinidad 🇹🇹
noticed you are not grunting getting in an out of the cab , medication seems to be still working.
It is mate working well 👍
Nothing worse than being near home in the middle of the day/week
I get it, you love being out and about and are handsomely rewarded for it (hopefully!). But jeez there must be times when you wonder if it's worth it.
Myself, personally, have a short temper and an even shorter fuse so wouldn't last 5 minutes in your job. Respect 👍
Do you not put the trailer into 20ft config? Noticed you didn't mention anything about it on the docks just did twist locks and slapped the container on
Ace.
Do not show Claire that reverse, she will give you grief when your on your week end break in you caravan.
😊😎👍
Great vid as always. As a fellow Box Jockey the only thing I'd say is on this trailer a loaded 20 should be in position 3 when loaded and not 4 ;)
Over truck driver show camera at the Dock
3min 30sec your passing a hoyer at BP how many replies can i get with that can give me a HOYER 👌👌👌😂
