    Hi Taylor, driving yesterday (Saturday) was like a walk In the park compared to Friday. I always ask the controller when he’d like me to leave. As you say he can see the bigger picture. I think on Friday it was a case of leave when you want, it doesn’t make much difference anyway.

      Yeah yesterday for me was so much better. I rarely take my 5 minutes the only time I normally take it is if I need the toilet or if I'm really tired and just need a minute to get my energy back.

    4 Hours from NX to PD! That explains why Plumstead High Street was deserted of 177s, 180s and 422s for a few hours. That’s crazy! 😨

    Great video Taylor. And here was me thinking that Mike had it bad - although it does sounds like a fun action-packed day hahah. How on earth did you keep yourself entertained for 4 hours on the same trip?!?!?

    Thanks for this, I know a guy who was three hours late for work due to the fire. Sounds mental. Do you have to stay for the 40 min break? It would be the same difference if you just got away there and then, you’d need the head start getting home with the roads so messed up : 0
