Oversized Mesh & Timber: Day in the Life of a UK Trucker

Описание: ​In this episode, I’m taking you along for a Friday run starting with a mesh delivery (complete with a tricky overhang), a quick stop at Cardiff Docks, and a final load of timber for Monday’s run. I also get a surprise visit from a viewer who was inspired to get his HGV license—shoutout to Louis!
