    Disco 2 second batterytray

    Not in the second battery position, I'm talking about the spot thats just in front of the passenger (in the engine bay, i don't thinkthe wife would like one in the glovebox) was hoping someone would say something like "2003 ford fiesta battery tray fits perfectly"

    Disco 2 second batterytray

    Hi all, am looking for a second battery, but the tray has to fit in a specific place in the td5 engine bay, does anyone know of any other vehicles with a smallish batterytray that will fit right in? I am crap at fettling things and the "proper" ones cost a fortune.

    Asked my wife for a fork-lift

    If driver makes the decision it's one thing, but for the company having two separate staff at operations tell me they would separate the stuff and send it out is a different matter. They didn't separate them despite knowing it was a residential street, I told "Liam" that a pallet wouldn't work...

    Dash cam discounts

    I have since discovered AF count any HD dash cam, but the onus would be on us to ensure it's always working I guess, even with the small discount my current insurer was cheaper ( as long as I don't have a van)

    Asked my wife for a fork-lift

    Nope, i was having 5 wheel rims, individually boxed, delivered, The pallet was someone elses idea AND we do quite often have HGV loading and unloading here, there's actually a loading spot in the road too, for all the washing machines and fridges the people in the flats next door want Edit...

    Asked my wife for a fork-lift

    Tuesday! they turn up, but still on pallet, I ring up and spoke to Liam at TNT again who told me they needed the permission of Frog Island to split them so they sent them out anyway ( ????) My wife signed for them, said 'Are you going to undo the Pallet? like they said?) and he clears off...

    Lol I want them separate. Otherwise I can't get them through the door and I don't think the wife will stand guard on them on the pavement.

    Asked my wife for a fork-lift

    I recently purchased a set of 5 modular wheels from Frog Island, helpful and friendly. They sent them out as they do with TNT. Note these are just the rims, no tyres. I got them sent to the wife as she's in during the day. At 1550 I get a phone call, your delivery is here and he won't unload...
