Weve just taken on a new contract working on the west coast main line between Crewe and Liverpool.

headed up there on thursday afternoon to meet the project managers etc,
Friday - day 1, went to a design and site office in manchester to collect all the official paperwork and go thru the formalities, then went to some place just south of Liverpool, parked the van up and went with the construction manager to see all the railway access points, look at a few of the relay rooms etc - get an idea of what was involved for the duration of the job.

on returning to the van - which was parked pretty much in a busy road - just to find the front window had been smashed in.

Missing was my iPod, Road angel, brand new Sat nav that id bought the day previous, the rear tool compartment door had been busted open and 2 brand new Hilti drills, huge tool boxes and several test equipment had gone missing.

work have estimated the loss of there equip to be just over 3k.
let alone loosing my own personal effects

not best impressed - Day one of what could be anything up to an 18 month project - makes you want to say fook it all and just go back home
