  1. Thanks guys for your messages and your PM's it's really appreciated! But all this palaver has made me realise that there are also a lot of good people out there offering chippers trucks etc.. Or just a bit of friendly support.

    Thanks :-)

  2. Turned up to site this morning to find that some little Toerag had decided to have a bash at my Unimog smashed two windows, slashed the tyres, smashed the dash and ignition, nicked the battery, nicked the snorkel and when they did this ripped a big hole in the wing, nicked bits of the front linkage.

    Nicked a load of pipe work (copper brake pipe) damaged the door.

    And lots more.

    Now the mog is going to be off the rd for a month or more and costing money as it not out working!

    Luckily my insurance company have been really good and been more than helpful. It just gets you down when people carry out this mindless vandalism and don't think about what impact this has on a small company!

  3. It's not a big problem we(Arb) will be deducted 20% from your invoice if you work on a construction site eg site clearance or working on site while building work is be done. You will be issued a Cis receipt with your remittance advice keep this and give it to the person that does your accounts and you will not have to pay any more tax on that invoice. Not sure if this helps
