shame that mate... is there no way you could keep it, I don't think you'll enjoy selling it, as it's so nice.

That's a shame - you haven't had it 5 minutes
Like you said, getting a job this close to Christmas will be problematic to say the least.....

All your dreams are in it.
how more miserable do you want to be? no job ..and no van with a great future.
something will turn up
Maybe having the van will focus your mind into getting something?
what a shame ..I wish I could help

You will need a van when you do find work to carry your gear around in....... What better then a Vanbretta.
Keep it and plan around it. Hard it will be but worth it in the end.

Sorry hear of your hassles mate.
Try not to sell "the family silver" (as they say) to pay for day to day stuff.
I take it the boat (I see) you are selling is replaceable in the future when things look up, but the van is likely more a bit of your soul.

Skilled stuff, advertise it perhaps ?
I find those A5 sized glossy mags that various areas of most towns have give best return when spending on advertising.
We find that if each (monthly) Ad (in each Mag - we have 5 in Chester) gets just 2 jobs it has paid for itself.
Here is 1 website listing some of the types of mag I mean =

Good luck buddy
