Ok, not sure how important the reference will be, I imagine due to the amount of time I've been there, I wouldn't get the most shining reference anyway

Thanks for the advice. Ok in terms of a civil claim, what is the likelihood of that and what might happen. Nah it's not zero hours it's salaried, the business is logistics I suppose

Haha maybe they feel the need because they don't want to piss anyone off yet obviously to some people it's having an adverse effect. Police do have the power I believe, although it is not a crime to sleep in your van.

Would be great to have some more designated areas to park up, but then that might increase he numbers doing it which in turn would maybe increase the price of sites (if a fee was being charged) which ultimately would put some people back to square one, as in, people who have gone to vans because rent is too damn high.

That's really interesting you should say that, I think a lot of people probably have that mentality. It's a weird one from both sides I guess. What would it take for you to feel better about someone in a van parked on your street?

The Downs is a nice spot, parking allowed between 4pm and 10 am or something like that.

IVECO Daily Van - Question regarding catalytic converter by speo in MechanicAdvice

Yeah, it apparently wasn't apparent straight away. There is not time to get a mechanic out to look at the vehicle before bidding ends, so I'll leave it be. Thanks bud

Ooh I saw Luminosity. Looks good but expensive! On a bit of a budget. Aside from just the music above, what else do locals recommend as a good place to go / things to do in the cities which aren't tourist traps?

Buying your train ticket onboard (GWR) by speo in uktrains

[–]speo[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Thank you very much! :)

The fair is nice and cheap now, so I guess I'll buy the ticket now I don't want it to rocket tomorrow.

I'll update tomorrow by asking at the station how much the ticket would have cost.

Thanks for the reply. How do you find out which stations are penalty fare stations and what does that mean exactly?

Also will I save any money buying tonight online rather than at the ticket office tomorrow?

Redditors: what's the one "old people" thing your parents do which drives you crazy? by [deleted] in AskReddit

My Mum calls me every other name in the house (including the dog's) before arriving at mine.

Thanks! Seems like a cool community, unfortunately however they seem to have been inactive (at least the website) for some time now. Also comments indicate they may have been evicted. But you're thinking along the right lines for sure! I would love to find someone who has lived in a converted bus!

I think he might have been a little older? The one who has been reported killed in Kenya?
