I thought that, when did villa Tom go? And without causing controversey or annoying the mods. What are they doing wrong?

its only temp 2 day bans

its only temp 2 day bans

Is there a reason ? something that everybody should be steering clear of ?

 

[Mike Jackson]

I think they got the hump over the swearing ban.

Back to vans, I have a plan which may come to fruition over the next week or so. It's too flipping expensive to hire a van for long.

What does it cost to hire a van? Can't be more then £30 a day for Transit??

 

[Mike Jackson]

I've had to get a LWB as I've got a vertical flue next week and the hire vans don't come with roof bars so I need to get my roof ladder inside. Works out about £35 a day.

Yep a pal of mine did with a supposed windscreen chip! Cost him loads in time, hassle and money

Most of the second hand vans on sale here are ex hire vans. Some are ok but the majority are high mileage and need a lot of work done.

Get a Hiace they're almost indestructible but you will get stuck if it sees snow.

 

[Mike Jackson]

Hopefully something will be sorted in the next week or so.

You not got a Landy still mike ?

 

[Mike Jackson]

It's the Landy that's packed up. I've been using it for work since i went back on my own. Trouble is I'm struggling with the size of it, plus the roof leaks like a sieve, the bulkhead is shot and there's a hole the size of a football in the footwell. It's all repairable but I'm not sure it's worth it when I could do with a bit more room. Trouble is I'm getting a lot more boiler and heating installs now and wasting time because I can't hold enough stock in the landy. I'm having to leave a lot more stuff on site than i like and when I clear the job I can't nip in and do anything on the way home as the landy is stuffed to the roof.

 

[Barry98]

Am with ya

 

[Mike Jackson]

New vehicle is hopefully sorted. All will be revealed next week if everything goes to plan.
