I drove those Renault D series trucks as a box truck for over a year. I do not miss them, they are awful to drive. That struggle with the gear box I'm glad to see that it's on every one of those and not just mine. Cheers, great to look at these old vids and be reminded that I'm moving on to better material

And what is it your modelling Kev? I enjoyed the journey around Southampton. Used to deliver for a firm called Railex who made office filing cabinets etc out of Southport. We would get loaded on a Monday morning and be out for the week delivering to offices, companies and government offices around Britain, even delivered to Downing St, to the chancellors house / office. Was a great lifestyle, and watching you driving really brings back so many great memories. That was in the days of the log book and early days on the tachometer, putting a new card in every day with 10 1/2 driving days . Keep up the good work, your obviously enjoying your days now compared to your artic days.

I like what your doing now, some locations are really challenging and each pick up presents it's own problem. Also it's not like tipper work where you do the same thing on the same roads over and over. Also it's not local work all the time either, you get around seeing different places. The thing you might get fed up with is how some people park, well not so much park, dumped might be a better term.

It's all about the local multi-drop and tight road driving. I do multi drop in an urban trailer artic to small businesses and the odd house. it's the kind of driving that keeps your head on a swivel and your brains working. I did long distance work for 4 months and couldn't stand the boredom. Still got a sleeper cab though need a comfy nap every now and then. Shame you have a Renault D cab. It is so basic it's an insult. Their T range is my favourite motor.
