that's a Shame maria.....was looking forward to and watching your van build project mate you was doing such a great job. I know what your going through (if it's work wise) that is , as there's not much out there and of coarse those that are lucky enough to still be employed are hanging on to their coin, good on em too . chin up mate , all the best  and i'll look forward to ur next Beddie!!! ;D ;D
