I have been a member of the FSB for about 12 or more years.
I have used there legal advice on more then one occassion.
You can also get free banking with the Coop Bank if you member of FSB, plus you get £25 per year loyalty bonus with the Coop.
I find it worthwhile but depends what they asking you to pay.

Same reason here - cheap at around £100 a year - apart from the legal advice you also get protection against the tax man investigating you - which could cost you £000's!

HMMM 

i will probably join but in a years time as i already have free banking and i payed an insurance through my accountant which is better cover than fsbs. they want £120 a year plus 30 extra first year seems fair enough to me.

thanks for replies

Hi Rich

The answer to your question re the van is - neither!

I had it made by a chippie. I'm not sure that I would be brave enough to take this on. You can't put back what you cut off!! The shelving came out of a big Merc Van, so it was a bit of a hotch-potch but it seems to work.
