Worst van fuck-up- Coming back from Loch Lomond after setting up for Oasis. Hire van fucks up, spend 3 hours til it gets light to find water in a stream, gakets blown, feed the van a bottle of oil every 10-12 miles, get home 12 hours late.

Reason for fuck-up: Bulb blown on the dashboard, couldn't see the oil temp gauge. Hire company had just lost AA membership for being a bunch of sketchy bastards. How frustrating do you think it is to have an info pack with an AA membership number, the only phone in miles is AA, but they won't phone anyone else for you.


(I did get revenge on the owner of that company but he probably hasn't realised it was me. Revenge is best served anonomously)

I can't even remember the number of times I've stood on a hard shoulder swearing at a Transit. I think we did Aberdeen to London and back a dozen or so times and probably did without problems only 2 or 3 times. Several punctures, lots of overheating, dead electrics, and one huge and fatal hole blown in the engine block. Love that M6...
