Doc Posted March 28, 2012 Author Share Posted March 28, 2012 OK Steve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAZ Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Sort of, but if a call comes in, I need to be off. I don't use the van for personal use, it costs too much for the tax, and the diesel is paid for by the mile. That's one of the reasons why they have trackers fitted, to prove we don't use them ourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
