Work van Wednesday

[Cherokee]

Then several trips dumping the spoil. See on the windscreen, collateral damage from parking, well loading the trailer, on double yellows. Traffic warden, or whatever they're called now, stood round the corner on which I was parked, wrote the ticket out and slapped it on the windscreen as we were loading wood in the back. I only saw him when he stood back to take a picture. I'm appealing (the ticket).

They’re a nightmare here in Bmth/Poole. I paid for parking dispensation last month, £30.00 & still got a ticket. I appealed and got a condescending email back as if they were doing me a favour.
I did actually track the parking tw*t warden down and had a word. Didn’t get an apology mind, just a shrug.

4 more photos!
1 and 2 are the small bit of ply to prevent any pipes coming into my footwell in cabin.
3 And 4th is my hand tools and power tools. This is the best part as I have such easy access to my power/hand tools.

Earlier this year I got a ticket in Clifton whilst loading tools into the van, the warden could see I was ready to leave but ticketed me anyway.
A couple of weeks later I was called out to a fault at a new customer's house. While I was there the warden walked in from work, needless to say the final invoice total rose by another £90.

Just removed bulkhead and used a grinder. Smoothed the edges off with it also.

Water is a liar. I've been chasing a leak running down the reveal of a bedroom window for three years now on a 2FF flat. Re-felted roof, felted up over a parapet, new flashings over an adjacent bay window. All to no avail. Flat is above a shop in the middle of a terrace. The only thing it can be is coming in from next door and tracking down the cavity. Have decided to stick a cavity tray in over the window. £15 of bits, 2 hour job, £500+ for the scaffold. At least I can see my van from a different angle.



Let's hope this fixes it.

Ironically the smartcar and pug are so big they have to park on the pavement

Don't want to offend, 'Mahoosive, but your kitchen units look a bit rudimentary!!

Tray all fitted, repainted. It's not super pretty, but it's a second floor old building. Scaffold came down yesterday. Hopefully this fixes the leak.

Think you need to clear your dash - people will think it's a Transit

All still v. quiet on my day job which is tech, so more maintenance on renters. At least no scaffold this week. New front door for these lucky people.



It was about time. I've had a few of these Howdens engineered wood (v. thin hardwood laminate) exterior doors now. Quite impressed with quality and finish, pre-glazed and right price. Finished off with Cetol Filter7, I don't expect to have to touch this again for a few years...

WWW day off today. Me though, had some 20’s to pop on. Can’t believe the transformation. Time to look into lowering a bit

Are they your real ladders or are they your step ladders?

 

[Dellmassive]

lol , , , they are the two step ladders, then in the back we have 2x tripple combi ladders, 2x hop-up and 2x telescopics.

they were just put there while we were getting other stuff out the van.

they sprayed with blue bits so we know whats ours when on a busy site.

and yes they are BS EN 131 Pro rated.

Working somewhere like that, i.e. clean, tidy, easily accessible with your van and well lit makes every job so much less tedious.
