What do you call the most british of things? The White Van Man perhaps or tea? If its white vans you are after the most common is probably the Daihatsu Hijet - formally the worlds most favourite all round vehicle - now redundant - sadly according to some. It has served britain well for nearly 20 years - moving stuff around, delivering stuff - there was even a tipper version of the daihatsu that would tip up to 1 ton in weight - pretty cool for a tiny van - and you can get them at used daihatsu hijet sale for so cheap its shocking. I personally am not a used daihatsu sale fan because I have had a few bad experinces not with daihatsu vans but with their cars - personal choice though I am pretty sure the hijet rules!

Car auctions can be a great place to snap up a bargain - but online there are so many car auctions available to browse. I had been searching high and low for a used but modified ford focus, only to come to the big names and not find a decent modified car.
I then came across UK modified car auctions, which had a good range of modified cars for sale in the uk. And because they are auctions you can snap up some great deals. Modified car hunting has been alot more fun since, I have brought 4 different cars in the last year - cleaned them up a bit and sold them on! all thanks to getting them at online modified car auctions. A great way to do it if you ask moi!
Typically its your boy racers who buy a semi nice car - do it up, adding 5k of stereo, 4k body kits, 4k paintjob and a whole lot more - I saw this one ford escort that had had more than 50k put into it for sale at just £8k - thats insanity. So dont pimp it yourself kids - get one from an online modified car auction! they rule!

Surely you can put on a party all by yourself, can’t you?
Yes you can.
But I’ve seen and heard time and time again the laments of well-meaning friends who decided to help someone plan an event, “I didn’t realize planning an event is so much work!”
After all, you only have to: find a top notch caterer, select the proper menu, call in a band, get some tables, decorate the tables, create a fabulous center piece, choose a lighting professional, find a location, negotiate terms, make a guest list, prepare the invitations, print the invitations, mail the invitations, create a theme, decorate accordingly, hire some side attractions, pick a creative photographer/videographer, select some flower arrangements, negotiate hotel rates for out-of-towners, and the list goes on…
Yes, anyone can do it. Do it well? That’s another issue.
Most troubling is, you never get to enjoy your own party!
Then there are corporate events - don’t ask.
Any company that tries to do it themselves are laying to much on the line.
With reputations at stake, it clearly isn’t worth a do-it-yourself approach.
I’ve seen corporate events that were simply pitiful. Two hundred guests standing for 2 hours because there weren’t enough chairs…cold food…sound equipment with no sound…did someone forget the lighting?
Yes. Planning an event is a big production whether you want it to be or not. Your guests will talk - this you can be sure of.
And let’s not forget Murphy’s Law with regards to production: “If anything can go wrong - it will.”
Unless it is your two year olds’ birthday - you might want to consider some professional help and advice.
Seek out someone with experience. Leave it in their court and have fun!
