Central London SW1A Gonna Be Fun 

The camera makes the roads definitely look narrower than they are. But I think the US roads are generally a little more spacious. Truckers never have enough, since they're asked to haul such long and wide loads, but it usually is a little more roomy though.

If it wasn't for the stress of the driving, it looks like a nice city to visit!

Love the sign language you shared with your fellow trucker! Just oblivious to your rig being there.

Used to deliver into West London and West-central, within Whitechapel for a production company (film and TV stuff) and boy I am SO glad I switched jobs. Now do local work, no motorways, no parking attendants and no traffic Wombles (HATO's) for a fender bender.

Always I great video from you never boring it’s the joy of London 😂😂

Happy to see you go by Canada 🇨🇦 House across from Trafalgar Square .

lovely drive through london great views thanks jenko

Hello Jenkins When You Hitch Up To A Trailer You Check Around The Trailer Check The Bar Accross The King Pin &Do you Check The Load Then Check If The Bar Across The King Pin From David Walter Poole (Snowy) Safe Trip

Loved the trip to London , also loked the timelapse with the sounds of witchcraft very catchy tune thanks

Starting agency work next week, be a big change from buses and driving a van for Asda

Pity about the wrong plasteboard but what a good video of how to deal with a city centre drop with skill and patience. Jenko is a real Pro

I had Bishopsgate one week then the next Cannon Street, Salters Square.

Like the music you played when you're time lapsing

that cop car was flaying i bet you wish it was you London you can keep it and that was a good blog a gen martin Gary from Crewe

That particular road needs a dedicated truck/bus lane for extra large transport vehicles. It's shocking they don't route you around a different path and expect you to somehow squeeze down the road. Because just as you were reacting, even though the cab fits, the trailer has to follow the cab. And around the turns, it could have impact with a four-wheeler. That's poor planning on the city. And since your goods keep the city alive, they should find a better way to accomodate tractors and semis.

Like that delivery you did with Keedwells when that guy told you to go away, think that was the same type of load too if I remember rightly, cheers for the shout-out in your live vid too. Nice to see Gavin make an appearance as well in the chat.

Really enjoyed this one and no apologies needed for the length or traffic jams because that is clearly what London is all about. Wife and I always watch you and already looking forward to the next one. Take care, drive safe and hi to Mrs Jenko from us. Richard and Karen in wet Brisbane 😀

Well ! That was fun ( for me ! ) well done on the London drive . As a Londoner , I’ve done vast amounts of miles in and around London first in Lorries , then 40’ coaches and for the last years of my working life in a Transit . It got progressively worse as the years went by . What used to be a fun challenge become a chore even in a transit . Traffic , cyclists , motor bikes , traffic wardens etc has made delivering in London a bloomin’ nightmare now . So , so glad I retired 8 years ago . I have no intention of driving in London now . Ever . You handled it well !! But I really enjoyed the drive with you , things have changed , for the worse , since I last drive there . And all that driving , for sweet Fanny Adam’s …….

Love it mate great watch on a sunny Sunday afternoon in New Zealand best regards to u and the mrs

What a Muppet @ 26:56 and on double red lines also

Welcome to my world mate!!

As you said to me at Gordano last Thursday morning, that was a bloomin nightmare!! Bloomin great video as usual tho!! See you in the next one,toodles!!

Thank you for the mid week Martyn. And, as for the London trip, you can have it. Haha! Its the only way I'll ever see any of it, so thanks for that though. Take care. You and Claire be safe. Cheers! Todd Konoske the retired trucker.

Great blog London it’s not boring I was getting tensed up like you thanks for the blogs we’d .sat stay safe

34.33 - the muppet on the scooter without a helmet... DUH

Yeah, the gatekeeper saying, today was a joyride with a full load. No deliveries today!

Great video again Jenko London nightmare seen some good places on the way traffic is mad no wonder you don't like London stay safe mate 👍

Great vlog jenko very interesting seeing London sights I wouldn't like to drive around London either mate 👍

Good video mate 👍

Very very good 🤗

Really enjoyed this video.. You have mega bladder control.. Lol.

Good job you not driving a New Zealand artic pulling double trailers. What you pull plus another trailer the same length!!!

Rather you than me Martyn rather you than me especially in London. It’s hard enough in a car let alone an artic! My dad always said ‘if you hit one red in London you’ll hit the lot red’. He didn’t drive in London very often either! Bloody good vlog though x

Thank you Martin. Great video for me Enjoyed it. But What a day for you. Will you be rushing back to London Didn’t see you Stop at. Harrods to pick up a little gift for Mrs T C (Claire ) to Show her you had a lovely day in London. 😂😂. Spent half my Childhood in London. In the. 50. Only go down to London buy Train now. Really felt sorry for you. Thanks again Take care and Stay safe and safe Trucking. Toodles.

Hi Mate i do this run once a year in a car and it stress. Ok its late January on a Sunday at 9am but still not good then coming out a 1pm need eyes every where. You taking the truck respected feel your pain.

Ardmore just ouch not watched all the video but having delivered to other sites of there’s I feel for you

Calm as ever. Don't know how you do it. Did it a few times over a couple of years in a rigid and that was enough for me. Great video, and just as I remember it. No apologies needed for the edits, it's a true account of the jams. Keep up the good work. Those last few speed bumps at the end had me clenching! Think we've all been there!! 😅 Cheers Gruff

Welcome to my world , can’t beat London in an artic , I felt your pain I’m sure I’d have broken out in to stronger language lol stay safe mate

Hi Martyn , i received a fine for a similar incident in Croydon..I appealed it and only had to pay half..still annoying though…but regarding Central London…Chelsea football club is as central I wanna go in an artic..that was enough for me 😂..hat’s off for your patience mate 👍🏻loved this vlog though and thanks again for another weds vlog…stay safe pal

Thank you for the London tour😉 I did spot the Natural History Museum on the left set back a bit after the idiot with the tail lift down! After watching this I will stop complaining about the traffic through Yeovil in a 24 foot long rigid curtain sider 😳 that's a doddle compared to London😂 have a good Thursday, Friday and weekend, see you in Saturday's video. Yes the Cenotaph is where the main Remembrance parade is held, not sure what the other memorial just before it was, could have been the Bomber Command memorial

OHHH RELIFE. !!!!!!! 😀😀😀😀

Great vlog agree London is a real pain, I hate delivering to it. Hope you don't get a fine from TfL for entering a bus lane near Harrods when you swung around that traffic waiting to turn right. You and the Mrs take care on them roads.

I don't blame you for hating to drive in London. I'd hate attempting it in a car far less your huge HGV

Another cracking video Martyn! I certainly would have sworn at that idiot reversing with his tail lift down ,Numpty!! Haven’t driven a HGV through London since the mid nineties! Funny don’t miss it at all!😂What a waste of a day and all that stress for nothing! At least you get to meet up with Claire! Keep up the good work and keep safe both of you! 😀🚛🚛

really really awesome vlog. I have a mercedes actros awesome cab to live in and i am glad i don't have to go into london. Keep up the videos and fair play for surviving driving in london

I would not want this in a car let alone in a Truck. You next job should be a nice run in the country side to unwind.

Martyn, a real good informative vlog on all the joys of trucking for a new or would be trucker. hope the stress levels soon got bac to normal for you. hope Claire had a good day. both take care and stay safe

Thanks Martyn for a wonderful scenic tour of London, we saw ; Natural History Museum, Victoria and Albert Museum, Harrods, Trafalgar Sq, Horse Guards, 10 Downing St, Parliament, London Eye, Big Ben, ... we didn't miss much, cheers, Garry from DownUnder

Pall mall. Just passed jail 😁

A very good Thursday morning to you Martin and claire

Jenko: Great video, of you trip to London: especially all the scenery! You were mad, to pay a fine, for another persons' ignorance: you should have taken it to the small claims court. Take Care/

Hi Martyn how are you doing ? Thanks for the mid week vlog very much appreciated Pal. 👍

The fine for the box infringement! Yes, you should have appealed, yes, you would have had it turned down, but you can appeal further and the chances are it will be dropped. The main reason for this is that it will cost more to take you to court or admin costs than they will get in fines! I did this when I went through Bath and got done for entering the CAZ. I know a guy who ex police SOCCO and he says you can get a lot of minor offences dropped this way!

I’ve only been to London five times in my life! I’m 63 years old and it won’t worry me if I never go there again. I cannot stand the place! You certainly did very well on the driving front Martin, total credit to you.

Great vlog. The traffic in London us flaming nuts. Your a brave man. I was there as a tourist and for the amount of people is to busy for me and the tube is on another planet. Great watch

Gosh Martyn, what a day you had, but I must say I loved the London tour, living in a rural area seeing London is a treat, not that I want to move there!! Thanks and take care.

love it wednesday is fab with a jenko vlog

Great video mate, great intro learning and as a non trucker, I find extremely useful.

You might have been better turning right off the A4 when you was behind the blue Bentley and going down past where Earls Court was all the way down to the river then along The Embankment

The look on your face,when they said we not taking deliveries today,😄,great vlog though,the traffic wow,stay safe

Like yourself i am also a man of a certain age and know the feeling,when you need to go you need to go,get some TRAVEL JOHNS Martin , they have saved my blushes on a few occasions mate i can tell you!!

That day was the definition of hell! What plonker caused the wrong consignment to be delivered for God’s sake?

@56:22 Did not know you were allowed to reverse into a no entry road in order to turn round

….ps. What’s that truck do?.. 8 to the gallon? Love the hitching up stuff too.. interesting stuff when you’ve never done it

Enjoyed the vlog Martyn as you said what a waste of a day it must be so frustrating driving all the way down there and having a load refused. I hope Claire had a nice easy shift for her birthday not to stressful. Stay safe and take care guys.

Where were you in the opening shots of coupling up?. You seemed to br surounded by your old firm Keedwells

Don't panic about long clips longer the better for me . Take care mate

Excellent vlog Martyn , enjoyed the Martyn's sightseeing tour of London 😂Stay safe out there

You have the patience of a saint. What would happen, I wonder, if all the trucking companies and delivery services refused to go into London unless the roads and rules were made more trucker friendly. If they all stuck to their guns it wouldn't take long before something changed.

What a bloody joke!! Shocking. Those poxy developer sites don’t deserve supplies!! Somebody needs sacking. Who pays for all that fuel you’ve used?? Tell u what mate.. we’ll done for keeping‘relatively’ calm 😂 Keep safe Owen.. East Sussex

1:01:40 - that's not Parliament, that's St Margaret's church; Parliament is behind you across the square. Seems a very odd route both in and out - I'd have thought you'd have been better off going via Hyde Park Corner, Constitution Hill, then the Mall. And definitely not along Victoria St on the way back; instead of reversing you could have gone ahead onto the Embankment, then left along Northumberland Ave back to Trafalgar Square. Assuming they're all open at the moment. Also, how did you manage to see the flag on Parliament from St James St? You must have x-ray vision :)

Just being in London would stress me out nevermind driving an artic through it 😫

No need to say sorry for long clips, I find them very good giving us a proper look at your trip in.

You kept so calm when they said that they were not taking delivery’s today.😂

Hi Martyn, cannot say enough times, what a relief when I hung up my card and said "No more London's". Don't quite understand the modern way, of never seem to have time for a toilet break or something to eat? seems counter productive to good health & wellbeing. stay safe both & enjoy your evening. You'll sleep well after today.

We have a London mayor who is making life for working people hell especially truck drivers. The guy in Manchester is trying to copy him. Vote Labour!

London has never changed mate been 13 years since I drove in fact been there wouldn’t want to go in the near further Toodles

I hope you made it.to the toilet in time Martyn and well driven in London there too buddy

What a joy London is. An absolute pain of a city to try and deliver into. A complete shambles. What a complete idiot of a driver reversing toward you with something on the tail lift. Complete clown. Who the heck would want to drive in London. Incredible. How you manage to stay so calm is amazing in these ridiculous traffic jams. Brilliant job there Martyn. What a complete b..... waste of time after all the messing about getting there. These organisations should be charged double time for the excessive number of hours being kept waiting around. So so frustrating!! Hope Claire had a much better day than your day Martyn. Stay safe both and take care.

Great video. Wait until you get a bit older. I needed a break during the video 😂

You may hate Central London, but it was a very interesting journey for me. Thanks for the video.

Enjoyed the drive nitemare it was a rejected load but hope u made it to the toilet lol

Noticed when you got out to find out where they wanted you, left keys in and engine running, surely that’s a risk of it being stolen

Good effort 👌you'll be doing the London runs all the time now. 😁

this is how i spend my day also the joys of living in south london

Just subscribed to your channel most enjoyable . It must really take all your patience to drive in London. Personally I wouldn't drivr there if they paid me.

Why are your trailers in a yard with Keedwell trailers??

Hi Martyn, I am going to be training on C+E soon, I enjoy watching yourself and the other Road Legends for help in driving Class 1. You were over 4 hours parked outside where you were meant to deliver but on double yellow lines and double stripes on kerb, how do you get to do that, if it is no loading / unloading at any time. I feel for you driving into London then have to bring the load back out again.

how can they stand living in london you would have to have a electric scooter

Don't apologise. I love the London ones than the normal drop and tip. Living in Manchester, I thought we had some idiot drivers, but London seems to have the monopoly of them :) :) Just got to the part where they're not taking any deliveries. Cannot believe it. Then again, it is a Government building they're working on. That says it all

All that aggro, for a rejected load. 😡

Taking my class 1 end of the month, lessons and test. Any tips?

I hate London to the best bit is the road out . stay safe 👍😅

When I was driving, I had to take a fabricated steel beam to a site in London, that the firm were screaming for. They refused to tip me because it wasn't booked in, even though the crane wasn't busy. Not sure if it ever got delivered, because needless to say my boss wasn't happy.

seem to be surounded by keedwells trailers
