What were you doing over there? Work? I lived there for a long time. -
<p>Sorry for late reply, now in Canada. I loved my Mazda, build sides for the back and could get loads in it! I would recommend it as a work truck. However, it does get stuck in mud/wet roads if not loaded on the back, so be aware of that when parking etc. I got 30 mpg roughly, and used it as my social vehicle, too. Great pick ups.</p>

<p>Hi , iv seen you have a 2wd mazda I'm thinking of getting something similar , what sort of MPG you getting from it ? , would you recommend one, are they ok as a run about on a daily basis ? It's only for small jobs</p>

I've reduced the price, so if anyone is after a well looked after pickup, please look in arbtrader.

I developed this really badly late last year and couldn't even pick up a glass of water. Desertrat from here suggested a tennis elbow strap: http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/?ie=UTF8&keywords=tennis+elbow+strap&tag=googhydr-21&index=aps&hvadid=9030087665&hvpos=1t3&hvexid=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=163995846569750317&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=e&ref=pd_sl_4fija3qyny_e I didn't want to pay that much, so went to the poundshop and bought a knee strap (elastic with velcro end) for £1. I feel your pain. It has taken me nearly 3 months to get my arm sorted. Still not 100% but the strap really helps. More than I thought it would. Best £1 I ever spent!

Shameless plug: Sadly my beloved Mazda has to go as I'm moving abroad. It's advertised in the classified if anyone is after a ready to work arbtruck.

The single cabs in good condition are hard to find. I had to travel to get mine. It's up for sale in the classifieds if you change your mind

I've got a Mazda B2500 (basically a Ranger, but better ). Been really impressed with mine and sad I'm having to sell her.

This would do it, cheap as chips: Toolstation > Hand Tools > Builders Tools > Tarpaulin I bought a large one and set up a makeshift cover to work under whilst plyboarding my van. Put over the roof, tie down with rope using the eyelets. Job done.

Same as everyone else, I'm very sorry for you, must have been totally gutting to lose him. My dog's prey drive is so strong, he takes off after anything. So sadly for him, he is always on a lead when out now. I really hope the new pub brings you some fun and excitement.

Just thought I'd update. My partner and I are going to Canada in 2 months. I was certainly hoping to find more work before then, but things have been quiet. I've pm'd people personally who have contacted me. Cheers

I'm with Arborisk for public liability. They do a sole trader package. Mine's just under £400 for £10mil. That includes climbing and groundwork. -

KingoftheRing replied to Hodge's topic in Employment
I fully understand how hard the economic climate is for everyone (employers, workers wishing to gain employment, and self-employed contractors). I'm experiencing it first hand.
