I had a larger company take a poke at me for operating out of my car while they operate out of a 40k van.

I’ve been operating out of my car for about 6 years now, this one cost me 6k I pay about £30 a year in road tax and with today’s prices it’s cost me £108 to fill up and returns me about 57-60 MPG so around 13p a mile. A 3.5T Mercedes sprinter which is the most common van we would use would cost you maybe 4-5K then you would want to kit it out with shelves and boxes for tools so maybe 2k 22-33mpg and about £335 a year tax and about £120 to fill up and about 22p a mile.
I’m not great at numbers but to me it looks like using my car is better value then a van, not having to spend so much on fuel means I’m able to pass the savings on. I’d love to be able to afford to run a van and absorb that cost but at the moment I am one man and have rent and bills to pay. One day I’ll have a van but most of my customers will confirm that it’s a rare occasion that I can’t do the job with th tools I’ve brought with me. Rant over

Flags were recently spotted across numerous towns.

Councils in Derbyshire have "no plans" to remove St George or union jack flags from lamp posts or roundabouts.

Hello! Just us, sneaking back onto your feed to take a quick break from the summer holiday chaos...

But it’s for good reason because we’ve got news. The BEST kind of news. So move over Santa, because the main event of the year is BACK for its 10th spectacular year!

The Katharine House Banbury Christmas Tractor Run will be rolling through the streets once again on Saturday 13th December, lighting up our local roads in support of a cause close to all our hearts. 🚜✨

Every year this event gets bigger, brighter and more creative and each time we’re blown away by your support. Over the past 9 years, your generosity has helped raise over £226,000 for Katharine House Hospice, and we can’t wait to see what we can achieve together this year.

So grab your diary, tell your friends, alert the group chats, and cancel whatever else you might’ve had planned, because this is one festive evening you definitely don’t want to miss!

We’ll be sharing more updates in the coming months, both here and on the official Katharine House Tractor Run page. No other groups or event pages will be created, so please stick with these official channels to avoid any confusion (and hopefully steer clear of the spam this year! 👀🤞).

That’s all for now from us, so back to your summer!
We’ll see you soon.…

The Christmas Tractor Run Team
🚜🎄🎅✨
