Did that van ever get out of the body shop?
Got it back 9 mths later with the bullet holes still in the door and the inside panel hanging off.
Gaffer taped it up but was always falling off. Waited another 3mths before I eventually got a new van
 

It's all a bit mean here lately. Who do you think are the forum altruists who do good, for the sake of doing good?

I'll go with @tommye

Who is yours?
Ummmmm, @tommye is good people. 😜

That was a fun night.
Fazakerley at its finest.
Was actually laughing at the pic of the bullet holes in the door yesterday 🤣
This requires further explanation, Thomas!

So someone was shooting at you, and you were having a laugh?!? 🤯

Were you high again, FFS?!?
High 2.webp

OK, so I'm on callout for work, this involves providing emergency cover for social housing group, plumbing board ups locksmith etc etc.
Anyway gets a callout one night just after midnight for a board up in Fazak.
All the front downstairs windows caved in on a house. So gets there and there's 6 windows to board up, there was also 2 cars on the drive which had been smashed up, not my problem.
So, remove all the smashed units, board up and measure up for new double glazing, says my goodbyes to those in the house and gets back in my van.

We have order forms we need to fill out for the double glazing so, as per usual, I start filling the form in. Got my door open about a foot to keep the interior light on while I do what I'm doing.
As I'm doing this a car pulls up outside the house behind me and the lad comes out of his house and approaches the car chatting to whoever it was, I'm taking not much notice. Then I hears these 3 loud bangs and automatically think it's fireworks. So looks around, sees nothing, so cracks on with the form.
Lad has vanished but again, not taking much notice, just kinda in my eyeline.

Finishes writing the form out and heads off to another callout in Kensington.
Pulls up outside the 2nd job and gets out the van, big hole in the door. Instantly recognised as what can only be a bullet hole. Opens my door and there on the inside panel of the door are 2 bullet holes, 1 going straight through, the other going straight into my door speaker.

Police, malarkey, etc etc.
The 3 bangs were gunshots apparently aimed at the lad out the house. 1 hit the pavement and the other 2 hit the inside of my van door about 8" away from my leg.

Will dig the pics out in a bit when I get a chance 😂
