Blimey Mick... glad you are OK...

Next thought is about the 'conversation' when someone comes for the van...

"Not quite ready yet..."

"We're still waiting for a few parts..."

"I needed to change the head light bulbs... and it all fell apart in my hands..."

"Don't know who you got to leave it outside this morning but you want to see the state of it when we went to the yard / parking area to get it..."

or, of course...

"Van, what van?"

Scary stuff  :shock: Glad to hear you are OK.

I had a Pontiac "something or other" slip off wheel free jacks on a 4 post lift when I was at Lotus. It landed it's plastic fuel tank on the wheel free which, fortunately, didn't split  [-o< I have never moved so fast in my life. Would have made Linford Christie look like a pedestrian  :lol:
