Hi Martyn, great tip that about removing your air/lecy lines and using the shunt button. Not many drivers are taught that. Many of the new trucks come with shorter lines on as the trailers are close to the back of the cab. They don’t think about when you are doing tight turns. Stay safe out there. 😎🇬🇧
Loved the vlog Martyn. Nice to see what you do at the end of a shift. The yard was a bit of a tester I wonder how many would have given up on the manoever. Take care.
Had that one a couple of times recently where I cannot turn around and had to take the air lines out and shunt the truck out. You learn the hard way once you’re ABS splits and you’re waiting 4 hours for a new one lol Great video buddy.
Great to see what you get up on an evening when you've parked up and what your having foe your evening meal buddy hopefully can see it more often in the vlogs.
Nice to see something different buddy. Changing content now and again helps out the channel I do believe or at least gives us long time followers a little bit more awake. Its now 0055 hours and way past my bed time, but as I am not working for a few days, why not stay up.
Great vlog Martyn, Thanks for taking us a long, Hope you have a good shift tomorrow. There’s a chicken Dupiza from Aldi microwave meal it’s absolutely fantastic, highly recommend think it’s only 2.49.. Take care
Hi Martyn,that was a bit of a tight squeeze mate,like you I enjoy the 50/50 bread.hopefully you will have enough hours this week,Best wishes to you and Claire as always.Stay safe and keep on truckin'.
Another great video Jenko I love your videos missed you when you were off.I am watching this video at 8pm as can’t sleep due to my new knee replacement surgery and it says that pain gets worse at night while my knee repair it can take 6-9mths and it’s at night it repairs
Liking your vlog Martyn. Anyway, I cannot ever understand why companies, ie, Jewsons, have to stop unloading you to deal with their own wagon. At the end of the day, you are delivering something they asked for, so at that point, to my point of view, you are driving for them, although just for the duration of the drop-off, so they should deal with you whether or not you work for them🙄. As my dad was fond of telling me, there's more than one way of skinning a cat, after turning your truck round🤣
Asda shopping If you like soup try the Covent Garden box soup Martyn all nice Except for me the Mushroom one is A no go...creamy Tomato Leek and potato vegetable soup are lovely, the veg one does need salt though...buttered sourdough bread to dunk in as well... top Nosh
Great to see a little insight to what you do. Once your parked up. Sounds a silly question. But have you ever been scared park up somewhere over night. Like hearing people outside?
Great videos mate love them I have a question how do you stay in the truck at night I seen other drivers put there seat belt around the door too secure it is this what u do
Hi There, I hope you didn't get caught up in the traffic carnage, on Wed on the M6, junc 32/33. lorry overturned, few cars involved, and sadly someone lost their life. Stay Safe Buddy, Toodles.
Hi jenko, love the videos! I have been driving for around 3 years but am new to tramping. How do you go with parking when pulling up late? I have been told the later you finish the harder it is to park up. Is this true or just fear mongeres? Thanks! And drive safe! Keep up the good work. (If anyone else has some tips feel free to reply to this comment) thanks :)
Hi pal, how do you find working on surefreight?? Used to work for them myself couple of years ago, I enjoyed it. George is a good lad also, always helpful. Drive safe buddy 👍🏼
Hi Martin, seems the drivers hours need to be reviewed. 9 hours a day is a bit short 10 hrs would be more reasonable each day and say if you do a sixth shift may be a 9 hour day would be adequate. Messaging a driver in Australia he said they can drive up to 14 hours a day with an overall working day of 17 hours with 7 hours off, now that is along day😮
I feel your pain I had to jack knife a 45ft box blindside with suzies off down an alley way off a narrow street with the usual parked cars, bollards and pedestrians walking behind you. I suppose it's what we're paid for hahaha.....
Omg Jenko extra content is this a new you definitely a way to grow your subscribers instead of drive leave and cuddles more of life of a UK tramper what's the services like let us see more
Enjoyed the park up section. Thanks for sharing & best of luck.
Thanks for the video Martyn. Enjoyed seeing you parked up. Cheers
Another enjoyable one Martyn. A good tip about taking the air lines off and using the shunt button.

Hiya Martyn. Hope you've not any problems with the M6 near to the jnc34. Looks like a bad one. Hope you're safe and well
Hello mate another awesome video
We are going on the 16th to the bike show ,pity would have liked to meet you😂
Great to see a little insight to what you do. Once your parked up. Sounds a silly question. But have you ever been scared park up somewhere over night. Like hearing people outside?
@jonathan-il1ky never think about it to be honest buddy, lock the doors and all good 👍
Great videos mate love them I have a question how do you stay in the truck at night I seen other drivers put there seat belt around the door too secure it is this what u do
@dcroft76 don't do anything apart from lock them buddy never had any problems to be fair 👌
ratchet strap handle to handle
Hi not a driver , why are your connections called Suzie's?.. love your vlogs many thanks.

@grahamlaidlaw3854 yeh I did buddy delayed me some what but at least I get to go home someone obviously didn't 😔
What do you do for exercise when your parked up for the night
@@Paul-qk5et I don't really, maybe a walk to the loo 🤷

@iron_dann2752 yes it's true the later you park up the more difficult it is to find a space anywhere. We need more parking areas
Hi pal, how do you find working on surefreight?? Used to work for them myself couple of years ago, I enjoyed it. George is a good lad also, always helpful. Drive safe buddy 👍🏼
@iainmck74 agree with you buddy George will help out as much as he can.
Enjoying the work so far buddy 👍
Delivered to lots of builders merchants. Typical that HGV turning space is filled with materials

Will Kev Tee win the longest video this week ?lol.Thanks Jenko .Love to Claire ,try not to be shot text immediately 😅😅a.ok.xx
Got everything but the kitchen sink,
How the other half love's eh ?
Your drivers chair back looks broken, or is it angle of the camera ?
@ianclarke6830 could be angle of camera buddy there is a cover over the seat mind so that maybe why it looks broken to you 👍
@ oh ok, cheers for reply, headrest looked off, must be cover
@ianclarke6830 yes that's the cover buddy
You think most of these yards could be set up neater, than having stock dumped all over the place! #2000
These places are to tight should never expect you to go in there
I feel your pain I had to jack knife a 45ft box blindside with suzies off down an alley way off a narrow street with the usual parked cars, bollards and pedestrians walking behind you. I suppose it's what we're paid for hahaha.....
Your wife works for the same company ?
@@robertcowie8230 no different company buddy

I prefer making meals at home and then putting them in a tub and taking them to work
@EddieTruckingAdventures Mrs J normally does that for me but we were busy last weekend lol
@TruckerJenko ah fair enough
