  2. i have been edited....................at last:001_rolleyes: that means i have been ever so slightly naughty and got my wrists slapped, thanks monkeyd i knew with a bit of patience it would happen..
  3. .................what a hole. takes some believing that people do actuually live in those conditions. takes the phiss when you have to wipe your feet on the way OUT. .
  4. carry on with the ladder if it works for you, Lofthouse has been using a ladder for years..................:lol:

  15. Does this van have some device to warn you if you leave the ingnition keys in Jim?
  16. Keep it simple and go for colours that stand out, eg white and dark blue with a few bullet points and contact numbers. If you have too much people get confused and it takes ages to read.
  17. Thats what i have done, real deep engraving, buggers it up if you want to sell it but thats life. Our kit is just sooo easy to hide and get rid off. Most crims these days wouldnt give a toss about smart water to be honest, most of em dont know what normal water is never mind smart water!
  18. In theory a good idea and is not new, been around a few years, used on bikes a lot. for our job not a lot of good IMO saws etc are to small and easy to get rid of at car boots etc and to be honest the plod aint bothered about half a doz chainsaws they want the big boys nicking top class cars to order, thats where it will help. Even if you found your says at a boot sale you try getting a copper there to check it with the device before there packed up and gone! IMO for our kit it has got to be Prevention, prevention and prevention so they DONT get it in the first place and if they do forget it and make a claim. Just imagine how much "nicked" stuff changes hands EVERY week/weekend in this country at boot sales, ebay etc with very little getting found.
