My Family pulled a blinder on me tonight, we went out for a meal on the old tenner fest, (I'm a tight git) ? Just before coffee they took me outside and presented me with a new van, to say the least I am gobsmacked.

In the last few days they have sourced my ideal van, had a local business import, register, prepare and hide it, snuck it to the sign writer and got it to the Hotel without my having a clue. 

I can't believe it. ?

I'm gonna have to clean a lot of windows to pay for this one.

A tatty old faded red VW T4, tough old workhorse but hard work to drive.

Now I think we have the smartest window cleaning vans on the island. ?

Are they trying to smarten you up, next they'll be hoodwinking you to the barbers ?

It is next level but so is the hole in my bank account. ? They're not even telling me exactly how much it has cost. As my Son put it, 'it should see me out', hopefully he's talking about retirement and not planning to push me off my ladder. ?

 
Top choice! nice colour too!
My T5 is due an upgrade, I look at at all sorts but always come back to the transporters, and there’s not many deals to be had on them at the moment, especially not for the spec I’d want. Highline, T32, 204 DSG, Tailgate etc etc

 
Congratulations mate. Have you seen where they've hidden the stannah stair lift, zimmer frame & P155 pot for the next gifts later on
