Looks like it is an  older used van,(with a decent tool box) as well as the one I have. If I get the same as I have and a second, I could probably get a scrapper for parts. All for about 2.5k.

The lad I am giving it to is on a promise to run like the clappers for the first twelve months, so I guess there should be enough cash to get something newer and keep the best of the old ones.

The handy thing about having an older engine is that they will run on chip oil fairly easily so if the fuel price gets a lot madder than it already is, I can pop into my mate the burger baron and get a tank o gas.

I was brung up the same gold but it sometimes gets a bit tempting seeing all these shiny vans about the place.

I think I would be happier being skint than in debt. Though of course being a window cleaner, I am never skint.... ;)

Thanks dave, it has crossed my mind, but Really I need another van.

Mostly it is so the dog can come, at the moment he stays at home when I have a lad in.

Also my mate has got a baby on the way, and is pretty keen on the windows. He had a go through the winter and wasn't too phased by it, so hopefully he should be a goodun.

Don't panic I still don't fancy going global just yet, but I have got an eye on a couple of towns nearby.

two days per week at the moment, but it looks like I will get this van and have him on full time. We don't really have enough for two, but really that is down to me being fussy about who I work for.

 Like I say he is on a promise to run like the clappers for the first twelve months.

If you need a dig out or a spare pair of hands give us a shout.

I will pick up this van in the next wek or two

Seems to sum this forum up
First we wanna know how deep in debt everyone is because we want to make big business expansions
Then we find out someone needs a baby sitter really!

It's all big business plans here mate!

Yes, too much chit chat on here - I'm going to have to delete many of these posts. You guys can carry on gossiping with emails in future thank you.
