Is that berechurch hall/mersea road junction ? Sorry I can't help you with the value but one thing I have learnt with accidents is always call the police regardless of who's fault it is, the driver in my last accident just said "he wasn't there" so can't have been him, only witness was my girlfriend, and they won't accept her word in court. I ended up having to pay the £2.5k repair bill.

I don't know what they have offered you but streamline brought all of mine down when I said I was moving due to better rates, although streamlines premium charges are a joke, they do offer pretty good customer service I have found.

that looks great, quite a talent.

I looked at them when I was looking to renew, can't remember what put me off but the google reviews might have played a part in it

Have you tweaked the injection pump yet ? Thats the first thing and makes a fair difference. then a bigger intercooler. I have the 300tdi and am going to be doing the intercooler and fit a variable rate turbo next. Edit:beaten to it again

You pay extra with most companies to process business credit cards ie: barclaycard commercial sage quoted 2.05% on commercial cards

it's the "about £100 per year" they quoted me for PCI that put me off. Check what they are charging for business cards, it's normally more than a normal credit card. Barclays were the only one offering 1.5% across all cards

They do the card processing for you, and then transfer it to your account, depending who you go with they may also sort out the card machine. firms like cardsave, sage and payment sense are really only middle men, and they just supply the machine and sort out the merchant account for you. I wouldn't recommend cardsave, it's just a case of they are my best option as I am already with them, and I left it late to move (they have a rolling 12 month contract), if I was starting out again I would look at barclays, but wait until they have a deal going, which they often do, or sage, just try to get sage to clarify the actual cost of PCI compliance, but both seamed pretty transparent with their contracts imo.

Best thing we ever done, it's been discussed on here lots before, at the moment at least 75% of our turnover is done via cards, I no longer accept cheques unless it's from account customers. But as said above, if you go with a merchant service check the small print and then check it again, some of them are plain and simple liars, and the contract doesn't even remotely resemble what you are told. I have just looked at renewing our merchant services and out of the lot paymentsense were by far the biggest liars, sage were good but were very vague on how much PCI compliance was going to cost, barclays were good but a bit too pricey and there GPRS machine only used 2 networks for the roaming sim, both of which are crap around here, I decided to stick with the devil I know cardsave but they are now worldpay. Depending on how much you take on the machine per month is the best way to decide if you use a proper machine and merchant account or a mickey mouse one like the izettle or the others that use your mobile phone, merchant account percentages are considerably less. Do your homework properly is essential, some of the merchant account small print can tie you in for years and cost you a fortune in hidden get out fees. Had sage been more clued up on PCI compliance fee's I would have gone with them, their contract was clear and was what I was told on the phone, there didn't appear to be any hidden nasties.

If it's the domain in your link the domain name has been suspended, you should be able to buy it back in a couple of months or so. Try to learn about SEO yourself if you can, otherwise it will cost you a fortune.

My girlfriend is a childminder so never been a problem, If they are school age then most schools have an obligation to provide before and after school clubs and if they don't it's because there is generally sufficient childcare in the area for them not to have to.

That's a rather major oversight, and will they recall all vehicles to fit new plates ? I very much doubt it. Very similar thing happened to me years ago with a hilux when they went from 1500kg to 2000kg towing capacity, after owning it nearly a month I checked and realised our's had one of the old plates fitted, Toyota insisted they couldn't and wouldn't supply a new plate, instead they gave us a new truck with the proper plate.

Never trust anyone in business, I have recently been trying to change over to another card merchant and have decided the devil I know and all that. I read every bit of small print now, which is just as well because payment sense told me I would have an 18 month contract with no get out fee, what he meant to say was 60 month contract with £160 machine restock fee and £20 admin. These rolling contracts should not be allowed imo.

From what I was told Johny the chip was for export, it is/was shredded wood waste from recycling firms or put another way stuff out of skips. How true that is I don't know

Bet he won't be saying that when/if it breaks down on him

Here you go uniconnection shipping

Try getting in contact with some of the big waste disposal firms like fred sherwood and the likes, they have them. Edit: might be worth making inquiries with brightlingsea port as they were having boats in that were taking woodchip, not sure if they still are though.

last I had done was ranger truck and ifor tipper trailer, 2 colour with logo on front doors and tailgate and front and rear dropsides on the trailer was about £175

Once done it's permanent free advertising and looks more professional imo, personally I wouldn't bother with wrapping, they are printed and fade over time and start to look nasty when they do, although the inks used are getting better and are lasting longer, and £2k is way ott for wrapping a hilux. I had thought about wrapping the landy but I can get it repainted and signwriten for far less than a wrap. A decent sign firm should be able to make it look tastefully done in normal vinyl.

Assuming the fuel filter isn't blocked ? My ranger has now done it twice where I parked it up, went back to it later and it wouldn't start, changed fuel filter and all was fine.

Dropside transit ? try truck r us in ipswich Or have a word with Mission Logistics Ltd at witham, they have moved odd large stuff for us before, might mean paying for 4 pallet spaces but worth a try.

Ouch Don't beat yourself up over it, I moved my digger out of the yard (where it was covered by a block policy) a few weeks earlier and forgot to change it's cover when I took it to the farm I don't have much in the line of saws and strimmers but if I can help PM me

Sorry to hear I think we are all guilty of dropping our guard, we get used to taking the bother to make sure everything is as secure as we can but then after I while we let it slip, Dropping my guard was partly to blame for loosing my digger and trailer. I get up at the slightest noise now though after last time. Hope you get paid out without too much grief. Out of interest what part of Essex ?

Well from his point of view I would'nt even consider employing a subby who turns up with he's name on the truck, from experience it causes far too many problems. if it's on steel just get some magnetic panels to cover them when you work for him, that or stop working for him.

I have burnt lots of the stuff, so long as it's dry it burns a treat, especially when mixed with some softwood. I would jump at more of it if I get offered it.
