Don,t forget to pack your “Ladies Sanitary Items”, as listed. 
Who would need that lot to survive 4 nights out? They take less when they climb Mount Everest.

agree with that, i’m in a stralis now, and used to have an xl volvo.
the volvo was a much nicer drivers truck, and better build quality, but for the tramping, the stralis, makes much better use of the space. even though they are a bit cheap and nasty, you soon get used to em, and i quite like mine now, apart from the stupid bloody curtains.
pot noodles, a kettle, and wet wipes, are def must haves.
i know many people swear by these sat nav thingies, but a uk atlas, and a few a-z’s of some of the major cities, could serve you well, london, birmingham, manchester, etc.
bumped into a new driver at our place the other week, and was gobsmacked, when he informed me, he didn’t need any maps, as he has a sat-nav
good luck!
Cheers lads, will see how I get on then and if I get on with the fiat I’ll ask to keep it I’m not a lorry snob. Do like the actRoss mega space cab for room. Don’t drink tea so might get a gas cooker and make some of me own food to keep my costs down.
I found the Stralis seat a little bit thin on comfort after a while. Never had any comfort problems in a Volvo.
the stralis is a cracking motor, as bits fall off the interior space increases.

That could be me lol.
I carry 2 sat nav’s and an UK atlas with bridges, no a-z’s or anything though, too much ■■■■ to drag wagon to wagon.
Both my sat nav’s have truck maps on and do really well, but sometimes it’s just nice to look at a map and say “ahh”…
