Join me on a very frosty morning for a trip to Dorset and back! I find that missing a train can actually mean more time to explore new places. Meanwhile, along the way we’ll see the Minster at Wimborne, the Harbourside at Poole, and a blue 1987 Ford Orion!
Amazingly, the Ford Orion I stumbled upon in this video at 3:55 is available to buy, on 1st February 2024 at South Western Vehicle Auctions! Check out the @SWVA channel to see a video of this exact car which has under 16k miles on the clock!
Lovely upload. I love the frosty mornings.
Great video as well
Thank you!
I’m a trade plate driver. And it’s exactly like this
Hi I'm interested in applying for a job as a trade plate driver but was wondering do u get a pre payed card for travelling or do u have to use your own money then get it bk at the end of the week
It depends where you work, but I use my own money and get it all refunded week by week. I'll hopefully be making a proper video on all this kind of stuff soon.
So would it be right in saying you could be spending 300+ a week of your own money on travel
@@Seymour-f7h Yes, so even though I get it all back I need to make sure I have enough in the bank.
I was interested to know why the pub was called The Man in the Wall, and found this info on their website, which links to the tomb in Wimborne Minster with the corrected date: "This JD Wetherspoon’s pub is named after Wimborne’s Anthony Ettrick, known as ‘the man in the wall’, who has a curious burial place inside the minster. A local magistrate, he obtained permission to make a recess in the wall, where his colourful coffin was placed in his lifetime. Convinced he would die in 1693, Ettrick had the date painted on the side; he did not die until 1703… and the date was altered"
Your videos are great . Loved seeing the Ford Orion. I too remember them being everywhere . Loving the pickup trucks you get to drive 👍😍
Thank you, that's really great to hear!
I think I watched most of your videos yesterday. As I said a while ago I used to do this job. This trip is from my part of the country. Thank goodness for mobile phones these days.
Thanks for your support Terence! Yes without my mobile it would be so much more difficult!
It will be very interesting for you to do a electric car test
I'd love to test an EV if I get the chance

With some of the journeys you do, you’d never get there in an electric car.
Thanks for showing Poole and Wimborne, my home area. Poole is the hq of the RNLI, and also the home of Sunseeker motor yachts.
Great video.
Thank you, yes indeed I noticed both when I was there
