Yeh well everybody is good at something. 
Going into happy mode right now as I’m off until Wednesday, and Newcastle won today…again.

Ah, the use of offensive beat combos logos to scare the public…
I find that winding down the window is quite effective. …
I got a bit of stick for my baseball (butch trucker ) cap, so I’ve found some headgear for you ND, reckon it will suit your look.
…What do ya reckon?Look good driving down the M6 in that or what?

But so did Brighton, who are hot on your heels.
The result between Reading and Leeds should be interesting, and a draw or a win for Reading is probably the best result.
That way the top 2 can pull further clear, and you can get promoted as the runner up!

I get it a fair bit unfortunately. We deliver to building sites, everything from single house projects to all the major house builders. I had a tricky reverse into a single house job the other day in one of the posh parts of London so I pulled up on the road and quickly went to get the lads to help stop the traffic. As I got out the truck all the cars behind me that had to wait a lifetime (20 seconds or so) started blasting their horns in that really annoying way, BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP continuously as they drove up the road!
Oy Nomi, that bloke at the bottom of the pic, did he blow his brains out? now thats what i call a real protest about juggernauts, prepared to martyr yourself…
The people that live in these quaint places presumably have happily and tribally voted in agreements for the country to be overfilled with people over the last 2/4 decades, they escaped to places more suitable for those more equal than others, such as they, but now they are (along with the rest of us) are starting to reap the rewards of their folly, overcrowding means the crowds have to be serviced hence all the roads are chock a blok.
Oh the irony of it all

Isn’t that the truth!!
And no new infrastructure to service the arriving crowds despite the supposed increased economic activity.
So where did the extra wealth go to??

Take a drive up the full length of The Fosse Way (mainly the Cotswolds/Oxon/Warwicks, other well heeled areas that by sheer fluke seem to have escaped enrichment are available) looking from the height of your cab over the endless fields at the manors and stately homes set well away from the results of their actions and you might gain an inkling who benefitted from the sale of the country 
Just witnessed it again locally on my day off, unnecessary abuse and impatience to a trucker
On the bypass where I live there is a factory just under a railway bridge.
A foreign motor had not seen the bridge turned towards it, and was trying to reverse back on to the bypass,… while contending with a selection of d/heads swerving (with no real need) around him and blasting their horns at the poor ■■■■ .
I turned the car back round, put the hazards on and stopped the traffic to let him out, and guide him, it took all of 30 seconds.
The driver could not thank me enough, his English was worse than my Bulgarian , but I showed him where to park up for the night…(.aint I good eh )
But seriously, it’s a Sunday evening ffs,.what could the hurry be for these knobs? 
Doncha just love these perfects arse holes who lean on the horn while some poor bugger is trying heir best to sort the job out.
There’s not one of them could cope if they found themselves in similar circs if they were the ones half lost in a Bulgarian town.
I made a ■■■■ up yesterday, missed a bloody turn had to do a U turn in a roadway, luckily the bloke in the car behind must have realised i’d dropped a bollock so hung back and let me do the spin round, cheery wave of thanks from me…just hope he don’t post the footage on the tube 
A big problem in rural areas is towns people who have moved there and don’t realise lorrys are quite a big thing in rural life.
They usually complain about normal farming activities like tractors on the road and muck spreading as they think it’s all ploughmans lunches and some yokel standing by a gatepost giving weather forecasts.
In London the problem is everyone thinks there journey is more important than everyone else and the general third world mentality of many of the newer residents.
I find reciting poetery or random quotes of famous people confused hell out of them and they go on there way.
We occasionally got ‘verbal’ when delivering to ongoing housing sites, “Do you have to park that thing outside my house”? was the usual comment. I just used to say “Yes, and your neighbour used to moan when we parked outside his house while they were still building yours” and it tended to quieten them.

About 15 yrs ago I hired a 4 wheeler Volvo 4 by 4 crane lorry , I went up weardale way and parked up for some breakfast in a village , on my return a shop keeper was giving me some grief for parking over his cellar or something , I thought it would be good to give him my mates number and we’d have a good wind up ,well after he’d rang my mate who wound him right up he Sussed us out somehow and ended up speaking to my Mrs who dropped us both right in it
Being a European driving over here must be a right pain in the arse. You’ve got measurements in some ancient and meaningless format, worded signs you can’t understand, and a B road could be a 10 metre ride tarmac NSL road or a 3 metre wide track. And to top it off the locals are often unfriendly ■■■■■■■ who don’t like foreign trucks.
I always enjoyed the abuse of I’m honest, the variety was just amazing!
My average time blocking the road is about 10 seconds with my manitou. I once got told “its rush hour you bellend!” As if I could only work during off peak hours…
I had two cars decide they would not wait for me so both drove to within 6 inches of my machine and then lent on their horns as if I could magically fly out of their way…
I’ve been told that someone’s husband “used to be a policeman” as if that would make me do things differently all of a sudden.
I just used to smile, say thank you, and move on safe in the knowledge I wouldn’t die of a stress related disease anytime soon.
Someone in the village I live in complained to the police because a turnip fell out of the bucket of the farmer’s tractor as he was going to feed his sheep,another one complained about the milk tanker passing their house every day and a third one tried to stop the farmer slurry spreading. Shouldn’t move to the country and try to stop people making a living.
