Dads diary(with pictures)

Monday morning 7am-waiting to get loaded as usual

Tipperary bound and listening to Ray.This station stays on most of the day although i confess to listening to Joe Duffy :blush: (oap’s complaining) sometimes its hilarious

In the afternoon and evening i wind things up a little :sunglasses:

Vladamier is having a break

Im on the old n7.The new motorway is to the left-nearly finished,cant wait

The roads get narrow fast

A bit of illegal parking

Some nicer scenery


This is my turn

Not the worst road ive been on(take note Bugcos)

And this is destination A,A for A BIT TIGHT


Im in

Only 4 bundles to come off here

15 minuites later im tipped :laughing:


After i get back out the roads in a bit of a mess

Cashel main street-on route to “B”

Fethard main street


Avenue into “B”

We’ll go over this stream again

This is an electric gate-if any of you ever meet one.Just drive thru it but dont touch the metal door of the truck :open_mouth:


Back over the stream again ,done 6 kilometres in here now :open_mouth:

You dont see this in an RDC

■■■■■■■■ i must be close

Everything has to come off here

I get an audience

Load off and its well past lunchtime


On the way out i snap this

On the way home i spot a fellow trucknet member in this green Daf

Onto the hourlong stretch of motorway home. I overtake Dafs to pass the boredom :laughing: -notice the bike on the back of the cab :sunglasses:


A john o’neill Scania

A dirtbox :blush:

I get back to the yard and drop the trailer then bounce to North Kildare to collect my own from the garage. Its well locked up

Hope you enjoy this it took me ages :laughing:

My old Freuhauf,a much better trailer than our new Dennisons

Great diary! (I could almost hear Bug groaning at the thought of those tight lanes! :laughing: :wink: )

Glad to see you’ve got some do-as-you-likey ■■■■■■ over there too.

I’ve got a big green flask like this although I’d keep the blue phallus out of sight. :laughing:

Good diary though, nice work shame about the weather.

Mother Hubbards mug, town of Cashel…
