Once again Robroy rumbled for the bag of hot air that he actually is.

My friend whos boyfriend knows a mate said this…blah blah blah…
But have you done “euro” in a Topliner, truckbling? If not then you are just a lowly trucker and your opinion doesn’t count.
You are seriously ■■■■■■■ me aren’t you? why the hell would I want to drive on t’ continent, live in a tin box, get constantly harassed by gendarmes, have to listen to [zb] heads talking about their lorries whilst on ferry crossings, smell like a donkey, be out all week, miss my children growing up and for £500 take home per week when I can make double that for doing nothing and sleep in my own bed every day…hahaha anybody who drives on t’ continent is a mug or a big trucker.
£1000 a week for doing nothing? You schoolboys always let yourself down when you get excited.

Im grateful for drivers like this, driving all over the continent to bring us all the goods we need. Regardless of their nationality they deserve utmost respect for what they do, sacrificing family time, bathroom and a home bed to make a living and do the job.
I hope most British drivers are not slackers like you - “doing nothing and sleep in my own bed every day” .

I’d love to tell you about my illustrious trucking career but unfortunately I’ve yet to turn a wheel because every assignment I’m given involves spending several hours removing frilly curtain pelmets, dream catchers, Spanish bull-fighting sticks and batteries from electronic air fresheners left by selfish trampers such as yourself, by which point there are not enough hours left to do my job so I go home.
There are the odd rare occasions when I manage to complete this ordeal in 2.5 hours instead of 3 so am able to do my job but unfortunately this then gets scuppered by the class 1 bell-end flipflop that is blocking my escape by taking 63 shunts to get on a bay.
Ahhh so no mention or answers to me shooting down your inaccuracies but instead choose go on to something entirely different…well side stepped.
Also a refusal to reveal your career even though you unsucessfully attempted to ridicule mine…tut tut.
Just as I thought, all wind and ■■■■, and highly over opinionated on things that you actually know [zb] all about in real terms.
Knows it all but actually done next to [zb] all, and too ready to have a go at those that actually have, and knock the same people, namely me, who have at least had a go at something that you would never have the balls to do.
Just stick to your shop deliveries mate, as I’m sure you are an expert on those at least
No. I’m just intelligent enough to not provide you with any ammunition to shoot back at me which is exactly your plan. I can see straight through your type. The rest of your post is just antagonistic bluster in an attempt to get me to reveal what I do; that won’t work either, sweetie.
Mate, I called you a bufoon last time,You know what?
I was wrong … I think I was being generous.
Reading some of your stuff I don’t think you have even reached the heights of bufoonery.
You come on all guns blazing, making remarks about stuff that is none of your business (remember…failed o/d ) then back right off when I retaliate.
Believe it or not I could not give a flying one whether you ‘reveal what you do’ or not. Try and keep up ffs, …you already have!! : …You deliver to shops, hooray.
The rest I pieced together for myself…100mile radius/300 quid sat nav .
As for ammunition and ‘my plan’ I was only responding to your verbal attack on me because you could not win a simple discussion that you turned into an argument.
Look mate if you have a problem with me because you think I have done stuff that you would be incapable of, … that aint my fault, so why not just ignore my posts in future if they remind you of your lack of ambition and inadequecy, …I really don’t care. …‘‘sweetie’’

Jeeeez! it’s a ■■■■■■ pincer movement now , we’ve had Dom now ■■■■ makes an appearance. b
Look I aint as stupid as you look. Just go back and read your posts on this and the other thread you have ‘‘both’’ had a go at me on.
Same style, same terminology, same infantile themes.
You have not got the intelligence to try and fool those that have.
Why have 2 user names ffs, you achieve your goal of looking a complete ■■■■ by using either one of your nom de plumes so, don’t over tax your brain power, and stick to just one of them eh? you will only slip up one day as others on here in the past who like to talk to themselves.
Btw If I AM wrong, you should ‘‘both’’ get together.
A match made in Heaven.

You are seriously ■■■■■■■ me aren’t you? why the hell would I want to drive on t’ continent, live in a tin box, get constantly harassed by gendarmes, have to listen to [zb] heads talking about their lorries whilst on ferry crossings, smell like a donkey, be out all week, miss my children growing up and for £500 take home per week when I can make double that for doing nothing and sleep in my own bed every day…hahaha anybody who drives on t’ continent is a mug or a big trucker.
we’re all curious what you do now … presumably as you sleep during the day, your activity is night time, but you say it is doing nothing, could it involve touching your toes perhaps ?

Doing nothing and sleeping in his own bed, only one job it could be and that’s Rent Boy.

its good money though … I’m tempted … just not sure anyone would pay a £1,000 a week for my fat hairy old arse.

Over shot the runway a bit there pal did you not? A grand a week for doing nothing? Pull the other one. If your going to spout ■■■■■■■■ to try and big yourself up, at least try and make it a bit more believable.
Oh, and another tip. If your going to log in and use another username to leap to your own defense, try and mix up the writing style. Otherwise we can all see your the same person.
It’s like amateur hour
strange how people jump on certain things - failed OD, whoopity doo so am I.
like rob I tried so big deal, better to try and fail than not bother trying in my opinion, I have done continental too when I was an OD as a last gasp way to make some money which I did but I didn’t like being away 14 days back for 2 and setting off again after a while it becomes tiresome, having said that the best days I had driving was abroad a much better sense of camaraderie and fun, unlike the miserable lets sit on my phone in a corner rdc drivers.
I would rather on this thread alone share a pint with rob than either of you 2 bellends.

Ok, Cheers for that mate, but watch out that you aint gonna be accused of being in my ‘fan club’
I love the type that knock everybody for trying things that they haven’t got the balls for.
Anyway apologies to everybody else having to endure all the crap, maybe I should not have bitten, but I do have a low tolerance threshold towards ■■■■ whits.
Anyway to get back on thread, some of the older drivers that are not too good at reversing… I think it’s more down to type, character, and lack of self confidence in anything in life… not just driving.
I know a guy, nice bloke but a bit nervous and who has self confidence issues. I once saw him sat in the passenger seat while a shunter backed in to an awkward bay.
How many would do that unless they had the type of character that lacked confidence.
Maybe that is the reason, because we all know if you do anything often enough it becomes second nature, but if lacking confidence to do it, it is cancelled out.
I think a lot of it is because bays at certain places are too small or badly designed coupled with being asked to reverse, blindside in between two very expensive looking wagons. If someone is not 100% confident in their reversing skills then in come the nerves which makes everything 100 times worse.

Half the problem with reverses of the sort you mention Radar, they would be a piece of ■■■■ if the cab rear windows were fitted, or if those lucky enough to have a standard Scania pulled the bleedin curtain back from the NSR window so they could see
I can understand a long distance motor with one driver living in the thing being specced with no rear windows, but i can’t for the life of me get me head round why standard fleet spec going to be used night and day on RDC work arnt’ fitted with rear windows as standard.
When i had properly specced for the job in hand motors with rear windows i’d usually go for the blind side in preference.
One job we used to do regularly was a Kwik Save in south london, don’t ask me where around Streatham just off the A23, might even have been Streatham store, anyhow it was done with a tandem 33 ft fridge and you’d get nothing bigger in, approach via a one way residential street with cars parked both sides, entrance on the left and the loading bay down a ramp immediately to the right of the entrance, so you’d pull past the entrance and blind side a 180’ jack knife into the entrance and onto the bay, no banksman.
Thats why i loved me day cab Scania 3/4 series, manual box plus windows all round there was no better urban delivery tractor for that job, near enough the turning circle of a fork lift, if the best driver here tried that with a bloody silly great oversized sleeper with no rear windows and satans Arsetronic box it would be a complete nightmare but was with the right lorry literally a doddle, even for a numpty like me.
I’m seriously thinking about starting another thread about veteran drivers who can’t understand forum posts.
This has nothing to do with the following:
Newbies who can’t reverse or drivers not lending a hand to spot other drivers back
Eastern Europeans
Difficult reverses into very tight bays etc.
It’s about a driver, who had been driving to the same drop for five years who couldn’t reverse into the yard, off a decent width road, and instead had to wait and get the yard cleared so he could drive in.
Now all the hugz for drivers where reversing isn’t their strong point is all very sweet but, the bottom line is this, being able to reverse your vehicle safely is kind of important and the Driving Standards Agency agrees with me by including it in part of the test. So these drivers somehow manage to bag the runs where there is no reversing and find spaces they can drive into in MSAs, or avoid them altogether but, I still don’t really understand how they don’t come a cropper as most driving assessments will include reversing on to a bay and they must risk ending up on a diversion or holiday cover every now and again. It just seems mad to bluff their way through.
I didn’t think of that Juddian, we both remember when all sleeper cab motors had rear windows.
I think it was the MAN that started the trend of a complete blank at the back and sides of the cab.
It certainly made reversing a lot simpler especially if coupled to a flat trailer, it also helped to master the art if lacking experience.
… I think I was being generous.
