i think Deke broke something, im sure i replied to this?

 

[Evans Electric]

No idea  .... I'm not the Technical Back up any more .......merely  Sparks of the Year ,   in case you didn't know.

Have I broken the Internet ? 

Seems there are two posts .

Hello ...............is anybody there  ?      What have I done ?

 

[Andy™]

the internet is turning into a black hole and rapidly disappearing

 

[Evans Electric]

No probs  I'll just reverse that and return everything to normal ...........only problem is , we will all be 5 mins behind where we should be for ever more so its possible that at times there will be two of each Forumite if you left your PC  in the last 5 mins .    If you see yourself coming back ignore yourself or you will destroy the time /space continum and the universe will implode . 

Have a nice day !!

Just going to have a word with myself .back later .    Well one of us will be ......I think I can hear me in the hall ...ah  I've gone out so its safe to leave the office .

That'll be all right, just put a few more Elecsa stickers over the troublesome areas :B-

Typical Ford, even the windscreen has gone rusty.

It looks more like the end of the driveway to me, rather than the end of a road. No forum sticker Deke ?

If that was the end if the road (when it snowed) then it's taken a long time for you to get home to the computer to tell us, you've probably missed delivery of a trophy?

 

[Andy™]

he had to push his van home. via the post office to collect something

Didn't know there was a Forum sticker TBH 

Thing is of course ...mine would have to be a specially made  " Forum Sparks of the Year "  sticker.............not your everyday sticker for me. 

 

[Sharpend]

By the time a sticker was made with " a forum with a difference www.talk.electricianforum.co.uk Evans electric forum spark of the year 2013, Forum Information Technology Support" it would be more of a wrap than a sticker!!

Didn't know there was a Forum sticker TBH 

I don't think there is a current forum sticker, But our original Admin did have some made in the early years. I just assumed with you not only being spark of the year but a regular forum old timer, that you may have had one of Admin1's stickers. But with their rarity value, it may have made your van too attractive to those of a criminal mind who may want to pinch it for the resale value of the sticker!

Just had a trip over to Wolverhampton to view a van from the online sites , looked and sounded wonderful .  I was somewhat concerned that it had alloy wheels fitted .........why would you do that ?     Anyway found them on an industrial estate , loads of cars having major bodywork /welding done .  Owners not exactly indiginous Yam Yams born & bred,  didn't bother to look at van .

From there to the middle of Brum for the other one I had spotted ,  again looking good...............   a right piece of sheet , possibly painted with an emulsion brush . :coat
