Germany via Dover. 

Welcome back, there are no grey areas when driving in Germany. You are either right or wrong. x

I grew up in England saying Lorry, my brother is a 'Lorry Driver' but after living in Oz for many years I now say 'Truck' but when I hear someone say Lorry it makes me smile & I think it sounds quaint. As for straps I was always told to put the ratchet on the nearside, so that if you need to stop & tighten them, you're not standing in the middle of the road. Enjoying travelling with you.

Enjoyed your Oz adventures, I live in Qld Australia after emigrating from Yorkshire in 1986 did 26 yrs driving a wagon lol see I am an old old Trucker then did 18 yrs driving a Truck in Oz. Happily retired now 82 yrs old, but still enjoy watching Wagon, Lorry,Trucking videos. Keep up the good work.

Just found your channel its fantastic brings me back I used be lorry driver driving on the continent Dover to Germany love it 👍🇬🇧

G'day from Australia 🇦🇺 I watched you n John's video.

Glad you're back great vlog again

Dear Sherallin thank you for a thoroughly relaxing and informative video diary, I really enjoyed watching your journey whilst learning and observing the cultural differences. Your narration I find to be calming, well done. ❤

Hi sherallyn pleased to see you are back in the hot seat of ya Lorry & vlogging your journeys again , stay safe and keep those wheels turning xx

Nice to see you driving in Germany. The place you crossed the Rhine, Iffezheim, is actually the last lock on the Rhine. From there on the Rhine flows free all the way up to the Netherlands. You have been to Augsburg, a very beautiful city - a pity you couldn't stay over night and have look at the center. LKW in German is a short form for "Lastkraftwagen", in coloquial German we say "Lastwagen" for lorry and the driver is a "Lastwagenfahrer" or in your case, the female form "Lastwagenfahrerin". You could say: "Ich bin Lastwagenfahrerin" (I'm a lorrydriver). Greetings from Offenbach/Germany!

Hi Sherralin. Thank you for the latest vlog I do enjoy your work. Hope you had a great time in Australia it’s seems like you did. Flat work can be hard work but I must say satisfying. Take care.

Hi Sherralin 😊 welcome back and in Germany 🇩🇪 too 👍🏻 xx

Welcome Back Hope You Enjoyed Your Holiday ! ! Nice Detailed Video Really Enjoyed It Please Keep Them Coming And Stay Safe Out There.

Greetings sherralin.... thank you for bringing us along and welcome back from your holidays...

Onya Sherralin. Did you manage a small holiday to get over the holiday. I guess you were happy to be back with family. Great vlogs as always. Stay safe, travel well. The Ol' Fella Greg.💝

Great video as usual really good info too

Great job, mate in your new truck👍🇦🇺

Great video looks like you had a great time on holiday keep up the good work 👍

Just found your channel. Lorry or truck. The unsubscribed person should not be so narrow minded. I just subscribed. Good content.

A good job up and back keep on keeping on

Did you enjoy your holiday to Australia and new Zealand sherralin and thanks again for your road 🛣️ videos 😊

Another great video, recognised the airport at Sttutgart, that you passed through at night. My son worked at Porsche in Sttutgart and used to visit him on a regular basis. Agreed the Black Forest is beautiful. It looked like you unloaded in Augsburg. I used to visit Ulm in the 1980's which is quite close and drove through Augsburg to get there. Couldn't believe in the Magirus factory in Ulm they had vending machines that dispensed small bottles of beer. Agreed Germany is a very efficient country, the language is a bit mechanical though. Another couple of words you can learn in German is Krankenvagen ( ambulance), Krankenhaus ( hospital) and the town hall is called the Rathaus. Crazy language but fun

Welcome Back , Hope you had a great time down under ? . Another Great Video , I always enjoy them . The wheels to me will always be a Truck .

When I went in there I've never seen so many orange jackets sat around doing f all! What a waste of money!

Another interesting video. Enjoy driving with you. Thanks.

Great to see you back Sherralin hope you had a great holiday really enjoy your vlogs, still waiting for my chance had my class 1 for over 12 months but still no luck with a job yet but will keep applying for jobs, 14 years class 2 driving but it counts for nothing in this industry, experience is a massive stumbling block for new drivers stay safe and take care

Hi Sherralin, glad you had a good holiday. Followed all your posts. Back to the grind🙁, but in a Scania...😊😊😊. Thanks MARK uk

Amazing looking at other parts of the world seems very busy at the border. How long are you away for each trip. Very interesting cheers

As everyone else has said welcome back, and "vielen Dank" ( many thanks) for this Germany jaunt . Yes Garmisch P is a very nice place to visit, Germany is well worth visiting by train as well as road. Auf wiedersehen

Welcome back. Hope you had a fantastic holiday, and now back with a bang🤣. I'm also back with a new desktop. I've had to watch your videos of NZ and Aus on my tablet, which isn't very good. I've been to Germany many, many years ago, in the early 1980s, as my hubby was based in the Army over there around Celle, Belsen Bergen and other places. Have been to the Black Forest as well, but I did find northern Germany far prettier. I also drove over the Rhine when we visited Arnhem (A Bridge Too Far) in Holland, over to Germany, then Belgium and back home. I actually picked up some of the languages when over there, and what I do, is learn the very basics, eg, good morning/day/night, how to ask for things, thank you, etc. The easiest was Oo Ar... when asking for something. Can't spell the words, just how its prounced🤣. I picked that up from Manchester United fans when asking "where is" Eric Cantonar. Don't bother about the idiots who try to correct you on words. To me, they're just ignorant. After all, English came from England🤣🤣🤣, so actually, we're the ones that are always correct

An excellent example of how to do it,, great work 🇦🇺,,, in your truck 😇

Hi just joined your channal , I did enjoy it but the Americans call their Trucks (Semi's ) . I am also a UK truck driver . Keep up the good work and i look forward to seeing some more of your Channal . Drive Safe

hi Sherralin great see you back from holidays seeing family in OZ back to wet weather here in UK i had issues also with bleeping going off in truck when turning left or passing people on nearside when turning left do not have button to turn it off in the cab till next vlog take care on road 👌

Love the tips and details in this video , The world would be very boring if we all used the same description for everything and all vehicle's, i know folks are trying to be helpful when I'm securing loads maybe it's weird i have to go to a quiet corner in the yard and work by myself, keep safe.

The taco looks like a casio from the 1990's. Nice trip 👍

Back in the day it was common to call them wagons also.

Welcome back, didn’t mind driving in Germany. Lots of night driving there but the facilities are spotlessly everywhere. Used to load yogurt in Wurzburg and if you had to finish your break they had spots to park with a plug in. Plenty rules and regulations which as a Paddy I struggled with but not half as hard as the Polizei struggled with me . Ah good old times and love the sound off the Scania your driving now. Old joke with the lads on the fish was , you drive a lorry if you don’t drive a V8 Scania. Over here in the States a lorry can be a truck, semi, 18 wheeler, Large Car and Rooster Cruiser. Trailers are Reefer for a fridge, Skateboard for a flatbed and a Can for a Container with a car transporter being a Portable Parking Lot. The list goes on and on.

Good video . My brother and his wife were in OZ and NZ when you were there . He got a speeding ticket in NZ , 50 down to a 30 even though he was slowing down . Got home and a fine was waiting for him .

Holiday over, back to reality. 🤣🤣 Must have been a shock to the system, coming back from the beautiful weather in Australia to a wet and windy Dover.😞😞 38.00 " You say potato I say potato, " that doesn't have as much impact written down, but you get what I mean. 😂😂 Funny the things some people feel are important, ho hum. Thanks again for a really interesting video, I really like the longer ones. Safe journeys.

Nice to see you traveling to Augsburg. The buildings near the Bahnpark (a railway museum) you commented on are all quite old. Mostly late 1800s. Know the city well as some of my family live there though I’m U.K. born and bred.

Hi Sherralin. Good to see you got back from Oz ok. That bridge at 25.43 has only recently been completed and is part of the ongoing massive building project for the high speed rail link between Stuttgart and Munich. Also, in addition to the info that that other chap gave you, the phonetic pronunciation of LKW is "EL CAR VAY" (Might be useful when you`re trying to get a Lithuanian to shift his lorry sometime in the future :-))

ooh how i miss that times, 2005 to 09 every 2 weeks Friday after work at dover around 9 pm on the ferry to Dunkirk and arrive in Aachen Germany around 4am visit friends and family and 2pm head out back to Southampton, was always a great time. but now no more just driving east coast Ca to west coast US and back. but safe travels in GB and D

Welcome back , sorry your not in warmer Spain

Larry UK, LKV=Last Kraft Wagen Germani, Lastbil Danish

I always call a lorry a lorry. Regardless of whom I am speaking to. Simple reason, that is what we say in the UK. Interesting fact is that here in Japan, regardless of whether rigid or an articulated lorry, they are commonly referred to as 'trailers'. When I first came here back in 1991, artics were few and far between. Limited to petrol tankers, which interestingly enough are called 'tank lorry' here. The other variant was a car transporter. That was it. Private trailers behind cars were non-existent until the mid-nineties, even though Subaru had manufactured and sold a caravan briefly in the early seventies. Nowadays, artics are commonplace as well as dolly trailers and centre axle HGV trailers. Consequently, the terminology is also starting to change. Private trailers, goods, caravans, boat and jet-ski as well as car transporters, are now common and increasing year on year.

There are no yellow lines on roads in Germany, no single, no double yellows. The signage is sufficient. LKW stands for Lastkraftwagen but it's generally called Laster and some folks even call them Auto

hi , welcome home. Totally agree about Germany go there every year. Changing the subject ,whats the history of your unit ,I noticed it was issued with Edinburgh plates. Keep the vids coming.

Great video it's just today I came across your channel am a new member in the house 🏡🎉🎉🎉

Well that was a treat seeing bits of Germany. You are right it is a beautiful country. We call lorry's trucks in Canada aswell probably because it is a lot like the USA here. I hope the rest of your trip to Aus was good and i really enjoyed this video.

O wow welcome home jope tou enjoyed toue holiday

Hi sherralin welcome back to the uk my late wife came from Lancashire and she aways told everyone I was a wagon driver and the family up north. Still say are you sill driving wagons so that’s another one for you good video with John o stay safe regards bob

Great to watch from Aussie one question what’s the payload max sorry 2 question with all the costs how does it pay also are the French Les routes still good food

👋 hola.....welcome home....😊

Thank you for the holiday videos,t hey do it different there. Welcome back to europe & uk with rain in dover but no buffer queuing . That inland land border facility (20 miles from dover& tunnel) will get ultra busy soon But there are many orange staff to assist. Think you had a booking with p&o and sailed on a dfds boat, that happens as p&o + dfds have a space share arrangement So you travel on the next available dover calais sailing. Not my idea so Irish ferries gets my credit card now. The people i do a week away dont allow me to film had to sign a nda , not that bothered thou. Safe travels and ta for the videos.

Sevington a horible inefficient place!

It's new generation 😂😂 ,my old man was a Lorry Driver, and myself. if I had left something in the cab, I sometimes say I've left it in the Wagon 😂. now my son, he's a Truck driver. We must be showing are age lol. PS. love the videos.

Good to see you back at it, enjoyed the Aus vids too. What was you carrying over to Germany, if you can say roughly? Thanks

Great video thanks for sharing it. Just a quick question when you get onto the boat, what tacho mode do you use please.

Hi here in denmark we are called lastbil chaffore ,roy copenhagen.

Hello , Did Johnno show You how to Tarp a load , very old school , talking about Trucks/Lorries , I always think of a rigid vehicle , articulated truck is a Semi , and articulated truck with more than 1 trailer , a road train , but who is right ????? , Cheers

Welcome back to the lovely EU Sherralin, once again thoroughly enjoyed that trip to Germany with you, a bit of a change for you. Spain next? Missing the Volvo comfort yet? (Haha)

They have moved the Garmisch show to Berlin now not the same.

Just came across your videos enjoyed the watch! A question i have for yourself is what advice would you give for someone looking to get into European ? would you say jump straight to a HGV or would vans be a better place to start ? what's your pro's and con's to doing it working for someone else of running your own vehicle

Germany has its fair share of potholes too i see Shiralynn, have been to my German friendsxwedding in Kelkheim not far frim Drankfurt and have also had a,weekend in Berlin, English is therex2nd language there . Count me in for your next vid, take care

WELCOME HOME

Sherralin ballard ive got time on my hands im getting Bladdard stay safe guy manchester .

Come on, let’s get another 100 subscribers to reach 8k.

The big trucks in the usa is a semi truck and smaller trucks with the box is a boxtruck but its no offense thank you for sharing.

Another interesting video Sherralin. How pathetic people have been "correcting" what you call your "work vehicle". As you quite rightly said 👍you drive your "lorry" and each country has their own name for their lorry. People need to learn to be more tolerant and not so critical. I wish you happy and safe travels in your lorry Sherralin. Best wishes, Gail, Czech Republic ❤️

yes that happens to me too, rental car from Brussels Airport to Aachen and at the border at the time they were controlling the border and the police spoke to me in his broken English and didn't want to understand where I'm going to, eventually he found out I could speak German, he said, why don't you say you can speak German,. I replied, you didn't ask, and your English needs brushing up.at the end it doesn't matter, truck, lorry driver, in Germany you're a bad LKW Fahrer.

Good to see you back in EU . Nice video good to see germany again . Thanks Sherralin

🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️🇫🇷 them TOTEM POLES and THOSE ROUND BALLS plus THEY HAVE TRIANGLES and all DIFFERENT colours 👍🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️. THEY R SO U DONT LOOSE CONSENTRATION on the roads at DUSK ( know that SINCE THE 1980S 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️👍👍👍👍 ). safe travels now YOUR BACK from AUSTRALIA. all my family is in ADELAIDE and KANGAROO ISLAND ❤👍😍. Been 4 times between 2017 And 2020 ❤😍👍. it's a beautiful country. ❤👍😍

From one former lorry driver to you who's still enjoying the life, I have just one thing to ask....... Do you still chuckle at the German "Exit" signs?

Bang! Back to reality! How did you cope with the sudden change in temp? Mr Nesh ere. I would be still stuck to a hot radiator with a hot water bottle! To Mr Pedantic sub; I am 65, my dad described himself as a wagon dvr, I described him as a lorry dvr. Nowadays they call themselves truckdrivers. Language, like vehs, just rolls on.

why are the roads shinny whats that wet stuff .when i get to the P&O box at 1pm and she gives me a ticket saying 5.30pm.i always drive to the queue thats loading and squeze on at 1 pm ive only been refused twice . saves me hours .And i lived in fussen and garmische p and i worked in Neuschwanstein schloss 4 times .lkw is a waggon. pkw is a small van 7.5. A spuler is a kitchen assistant . A schwooler is a rent boy .i spent 3 months telling people i was a schwooler in garmisch

We call it a semi

From Britain all the way to Europe...where they speak European.

37:48 LKW stands for Last Kraft Wagen, a bit like HGV Heavy Goods Vehicle in England 😊 LastKraftWagen, don't try to say in English haha, this wouldn't be correct.

Youre back in the UK? So, you flunked out of road train school? Dang it. !

LKW-Fahrer......lorry driver in Germany 😊

Does not seem that you were on holiday for long time, l thought 6 or 8 weeks would have been better so that you get over the flights each end.

Hi Sherralin nice to see you are back from Australia. Just one thing i did notice about your trip? not nit picking lol , Buy why do companys run mismatched outfits ? i could / would not let a vehicle out of the yard looking like that, but then againg i have pride in what i do. That trailer was at least a foot if not more out of alignment ffs.Had it got an air problem ? if not it looks like a pikey setup lol, All My vehicles run level ( there is a good reason for that ) i even check trailers with spirit level from time to time lol, its easy to readjust air suspension if you know what you are doing, I wonder what the Germans thought of it lol? some micky mouse English Operator over here maybe, With your professionalism in euro work surly then can give you the right equipement to do the job with ? What i will say you are to Good to work for that unprofessional outfit thats for sure. (As i said Not Nit picking, but i don`t think a blind man would be glad to see that serup )

bradford and leeds dont yet have ch5 or internet .

LKW is la’stkraftwagen hgv in German

merci pour le beau reportage, c'est un réel plaisir de vous suivre sur les routes UK France Germany,

Good to see you back in UK...Brits and Yanks...two peoples separated by a common language! (Churchill I believe?) Boot, bonnet, shooting brake, estate car, etc. I could always remember but when a neighbor in Inverness asked if I had a shifting spanner he could borrow I was at a loss!!!
