    PRS...Music Licensed need for van!

    Apologies for the "auto correct" title! I thought we'd had all this 5 - 6 years ago with the PRS phoning everyone trying to enforce their "license". They've obviously spent the money they made from that scam so are back on the phones. Apparently if you have a colleague in the van and you...

    My First Van Break In......

    So I've just experienced my first van break in. Happened an hour ago, broad daylight with the van parked at the front of site I'm working on. Only managed to get a drill though as a cyclist disturbed them. How's everyone else's day?

    Caravan Electrics (20 chars - have we still not fixed this?!)

    I'm wanting to add a couple of sockets in my caravan as there's only 2 at the minute.

One of the sockets is going under the bed (this area is accessible from the outside by...

    Reminder of poor security on Ford Vans

    Saw this video online today of a guy using the now infamous lock pick tool to open a ford van in around 30 seconds. It is shocking that these picks are available online for around £20... Its a reminder to all with Ford vans to fit extra locks, as it only takes a moment for somebody to steal...

    Speeding ticket for van

    I just got a speeding ticket because vans have a different speed limit to cars. I was not aware of this, and nor is any van driver I have spoken to since, so just a heads up. Vans have a limit of 50mph on country roads not 60mph like cars. There is a van limit of 60mph on Dual Carrages not...
