White vans  cussing:

There's been an increase of white vans in the road I live on and they always seem to be badly parked. The neighbour across the road has acquired a BIG white van which he often parks close to my drive causing me problems in seeing if anything is coming up the road when I pull out. There's no room on his side of the road as he already has two ice-cream vans and a car.

Then there's the neighbour two doors down. His white van is a bugger to start and he has to keep turning the engine over until it fires up. Then he revs it until he's confident enough that it wont stall.

Deserving of a thread of its own ~ this could run and run.












Hopefully BM doesn't run a white van for his other enterprises. whistle:

It'll be a problem because some people who BBQ in their gardens do so until late into the evening, create a lot of foul smelling smoke by not knowing what they are doing, drink to excess and ask a lot of chavvy friends round to join in the fun. I have neighbours like that (or did have until I got the council onto them)

Damn! I just love that phrase, I got the council onto them guaranteed  to strike fear into the souls of even the hardest Fireside Fusilier. Outstanding Snoopy,  ;D you are my hero
