Defo been keen to see that castle in the day looked massive !!
Looked sooooo cool. I bet I’m never there again 🤦🏻♂️🇵🇹
Great video again Ben , interesting to see the other Brit trucks at Santander , hopefully I will be coming the other way on my motorcycle this year .
Cheers Chris, fantastic roads for biking out there mate 😃
Another great video Ben thanks for all the great trips looking forward to your adventures in 2024 just started following Mozza seems to be a good watch you Broughton guys are all over RUclips lol
Haha a takeover ! Cheers Gary 😃
Another great vlog. How do you chaps working in Europe get on with data roaming on your phones these days, I see you use it for calling customers and checking Google etc. Do you pay the going rate on a UK network or do you buy a separate SIM or subscribe to an overseas provider?
I just have a “bolt on” but it costs a fortune so I’m going to look at an EU phone & card. Great question mate 👍🏽😃
Please Can You Explain Why i;m Being Blocked
No idea 🤷♂️
Great video as always Ben. Just a quick one why can’t i comment on your Facebook ?
No idea mate you should be able to ?
They also load directly onto the truck when in the fields.
The load you got on is 40 Tonnes do you mean the load you got on is 40 tonne including unit and trailer ?
40T all up mate.
what was that at 21:42 on this video it looks like a boat under wraps
It was mate. 😉
Subscribed on a recommendation from @truckerjenko, happy new year to you and yours, john from Ireland
Thanks John & welcome.
On the the tools and then a pleasure cruise home. Brilliant 🙂
Glad you enjoyed it Murray.
Great video Ben, How long did the ferry take? Take care
Ages mate - I think it was about 30hrs 🤦🏻♂️
big hello thank you from norwich and happy new year
Hello & HNY to you too.
Lunch from 1300 to 1530? Sheesh!
Haha crazy eh 🤪
Do you ever chat with any other uk trucker when away?
Yes mate, regularly. We talk on the phone or CB app & park up together (sometimes) at regular stops.
Can you show more food services etc
I’ll try.

Cheers Ben really enjoyed that one, a bit of winter sun must have been nice.
Is it normal for the driver to call ahead to his collections/deliveries or something you do to assist the smooth running of your trip?
Thank you mate. I just do it to make things run smoothly where possible.
Why

Talking about rain. When we were travelling on our way back from, what was then, Yugoslavia, we travelled through Austria, heading towards Germany (Munich), and we entered a tunnel, and the weather was completely fine, however, when we exited after a few miles, it was lashing down so hard, even some of the locals were pulling over to stop on the hard shoulder as you couldn't see much in front of you as the rain was so heavy. The wipers just couldn't cope with it
Funny you should say that it’s just started lashing down here in Paris 😂🤷♂️🤦🏻♂️
Passed you between Northampton and Peterborough today on the A605, Spalding bound per chance? 🎉
Loaded March for Bristol. Cheers Edwin 😃
Great video reminds me of when I was tramping Spain and Portugal 30 years ago 🥴
I love it out that way 😃
Nice 1 ben. Few irish in santander heading out of port.
Safe travels and heres to more vids in 2024
☘️👍🍺☘️
Hoping so Mark & thank you !
Hi Ben.
Looked like the old customs post at Marvão on the border?
Would it not have been handier to drop down to the A6 and crossed at Badajoz?
To be fair I was empty & had plenty of time so took a more scenic route which I’ll probably never get an opportunity to do again 🤷♂️🇵🇹😃
When you boys bringing. those. seville oranges back?? I need to make Marmalade!!
Haha I did a load last year & thought I might have on this trip but it was butternut squash !
I bought on of the OHREX sat-navs about three weeks ago. So far very impressed. I am still learning all of the things it has, but as a Sat-Nav it is very easy to use. And so far its been accurate to destinations. I will keep you updated....
Mine seems good so far too 👍🏽
Excellent video Ben. Thanks for posting.
My pleasure Tim, thanks for watching.
great v/log ,Ben have a great happy new year and family looking forward to 2024 with you and your trips /keep on trucking stay safe.✋👍👍
Cheers Alan & the same to you.

Great trip buddy and happy new year,,keep them coming,i do miss the continent,still we had happy days,,
Happy new year to you too my friend 👍🏽
How often do you have to change your passport doing continental work?
As soon as it’s full ! Depends how many trips you do mate as the “short” hops use it up quicker. Good question but don’t ask @Captain Slow 😂
How do you get paid? By the miles or hours? Happy New Year
I do it for love mate 😂
