got a positive offer today company down here in Austria said they’ll take me on when I get my digi card 
had 4 years off, sick of doing menial mind numbing jobs 
said to them my German not fantastic all they said to that was " we cope with romanians bulgarians slovenians English is no problem" 
result me think, money not fantasic but my foot is back in the door and the bonus is don’t have to put up with the traffic chaos of the uk 
means being away from home a bit thats the only down side got used to being home every night but needs must to pay the bills, suppose i’m gonna find some changes out to the regs, been reading up on that and this site helps a lot, see very few brits down here maybe see more when i get back on the road i hope, think i will be doing south Germany (bayern) sud tirol north Italy and of course Austria maybe a few of the border countries too 
so maybe will see some of you guys down this way 
Just hope all goes smooth and they’re gentle with me for the first few weeks (or hours) and no regrets I hope

Put an old pair of work gloves at the wrong door. Then, when you open the door to climb up and realise there’s no steering wheel, grab the gloves, put them on and check something, then put them back. Make it part of your routine to check there’s a steering wheel before climbing up. [ZB] me, we have to explain everything down to the smallest detail these days
What to do when you do it with your car you’ll have to invent on your own.
The gloves one is an ancient trick.
Or just laugh at yourself as you slam the door shut, that’s what I used to do.
