It was four years ago today that I passed my Class 1 driving test – first time.


All of my subsequent driving was done in rigid trucks because the agency I worked for mostly supplied firms doing multi-drop in and out of central London rather than long haul. Don’t get me wrong, these were still big lorries (see my favourite tanker below).

But driving the really big trucks for long distances is an itch that I still feel the need to scratch. I look up at the big Volvos and Scanias next to me on the motorway and think – one day.
Was that really only 4 years ago?

It’s funny, I keep thinking it was only a couple of years.

I thought it was more. Covid has completely thrown my sense of time.

I wanted to drive a truck when I was a kid.
Forty years later and I’m playing Snowrunner.

Those graphics remind me of some of the building sites I delivered to which in the winter were like WWI trenches!
