RM are spending millions on shared vans, which in my office will mean (according to the latest gossip from the upcoming revision) that the eight crew buses / vans we currently have will be replaced by approx 20 of the small vans. How exactly is saving 8 litres of fuel going to compensate for just the fuel costs for an extra twelve vehicles? It's just typical RM

A Strange Notice
The other morning as I was pushing a york out to a 600 I saw the old "save a litre of fuel a day" sign stuck on a van. I thought "Why"?

Ahh Pinstripe - you need a copy of the formula that proved the vans were a greener and more eco friendly ...and what;s more CHEAPER option than bicycles ...now let me see - it's somewhere amongst all these pie wrappers.

Re: A Strange Notice
I thought the idea was so that come the Revision (never mind the Revolution) after a month"Save a litre of fuel a day"
you'd have sufficient to burn the f**king DO to the ground and do everyone a favour.
