For that sort of money i wouldnt bother, re MOT it and push for top dollar for the bike. Leave bad feed back to the buyer and move on.

Tart it up and sell it to one of those old guys at country fairs who wear flat caps..... I wear a flat cap cheaky tw@t and i aint that old!...........

Ring them up and ask, i think they sent me the stuff through the post, costs 150 quid for 3 years if i can remember rightly.

same here, no kit left in van unless one of us it there and when we get to the job all kit is taken to where we are working, even if we dont need it till the next job, bit of a pain in the ass but its too risky to leave on view.
-
Sorry to hear mate but i cant believe you left kit up a tree over night and in the garden! you might aswell put a sign there saying "nick me"
-
same as, think you will need a bigger motor.

Recently somebody told me that you are supposed to wear a ballistic jacket when working from a mewp, anybody got a definitive answer? why do you need a ballostic jacket, you dont when you climb! Done a few MEWP jobs a few weeks back and no jacket. Why you taking a gun up a tree anyway?

Good day out Jonny, been a few times with the klan, always have a good time. Food is usual expensive crap though. not sure on prices as "er in doors" saves the tesco card points thingys so we go free, 20 quid an adult rings a bell though. most of the rides are free just the odd thing to pay for when your in.
