Gotta get the poty out for tomorrow, first time for a while. Apartments in SW7, no chance of using the Tm,  what with the snow due over night sitting here thinking "don't want to go to work tomorrow"

Ok, it costs me a certain amount in parking fines - but that is worked into my pricing as is the congestion charges. 

I dont know if its true or not but my brother who lives/works in London says that so long as you have something coming out of your van i.e. hoses/cables and its coned off, that traffic wardens cannot issue you a ticket as you are in your 'work place' and that there is no other way to complete the job. If they do you can challenge it in court and win - apparently.

He also said that traffic wardens should know this rule (some do so he says, some dont), and will allow you to get on with your work once reminded.

Dont quote me on it though 

 
Sorry, this must be one of those urban myths that do the rounds every now and again,

By the way Truck Mounts have their day, it will all be LM cleaning in years to come as stricter guide lines come in on Safety and Products being used.
 

See..... I'm well ahead of the rest of you lot

i work a lot in london and south london,if i have a chat with the warden they are normally as good as gold,
the trouble is you dont always get that oportunity,also have the various councils got different rules?
nigel said if you cover the tax disc they wont issue a ticket ,im sure i have had a ticket when i have not even displayed one
im sure nigel will sort me out if his idea doesnt work

The Low Moisture revolution is on the way.....

Truck Mounts will be parked up all over the country gathering dust or clogging up ebay..

I'm thinking of just using dry fusion with cfr spotter for any bad bits.

What I always wonder is whilst doing this why people's vans aren't cleared out by the pikeys?

We leave van open for reach and wash but we are outside mostly in view of van.

I have visions of looking out window on fifth floor and seeing your van being cleared out
