I don't give a XXXX

I really really don't give a flying fuck if any Outback Trucker fails to make his delivery in time!

Please Truck Off with this total nonsense reality TV shite and stop trying to give me unwanted added anxiety in my already complicated life!

You could always turn it off.

Not unlike my 2 year old, he seems to get a little stressed when it doesn’t go to plan for Postman Pat.

Yeah but how will we know if he made his delivery?

ICBM

Never watched it.

Presumably it’s like MyHermes, only they usually manage to make the delivery?

Will they insure musical instruments?

How much do they charge to send a 4x12 cab?

My mum still brings up the time that I screamed because Postman Pat's hat went in the river.
Its been 3 years, I wish she'd drop it.

There's a road train going nowhere!

Isn't that a scene from back to the future 3?

My personal favourite was the Eddie Stobart documentary that was on for a few years - “Mike has to use all his specialised driving skills to keep control of his 40 ton killing machine called Amelia Louise, carrying a cargo of flowers, down the relatively straight and quiet M5...

I remember it.

"Chris has only 45 minutes to get to Luton through rush hour traffic', etc. Life and death stuff, eh?

Oh yes. Way over dramatised.

Ice road truckers is fantastic though.

Definitely. I suppose it was the original reality trucking programme wasn’t it? 

Theres fuck all scary about a bio mass Stobart truck heading up a country lane to pick up wood chips (no matter how deep the voice of the presenter gets) compared to driving a truck twice the size over a few inches of ice!

It's good, but they still go over the top with the dramatisation/suspense at times.
