He was one of those guys who wouldn't take NO for an answer. At the press launch not one of the London based vans managed to negociate a corner without rolling on its side. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=52961#post-152492 Sat, 08 Dec 2012 14:12:48 +0000 malgor 152492@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>It's these fashion-conscious farmers with their red tractors and a desire for coordinated accessories.</p> <p>True: a sign-writer friend of mine had a red van, beautifully inscribed on the back 'Van Rouge'. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=52961#post-152457 Sat, 08 Dec 2012 11:22:31 +0000 Al OPecia 152457@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>"Vin Diesel"? </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=52961#post-152456 Sat, 08 Dec 2012 11:20:34 +0000 waylandsmithy 152456@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Cool, I can see it now! </p> <p>Thanks for the heads up Sinnick. I just need to find a supplier of industrial quantities of cat litter now. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=52961#post-152450 Sat, 08 Dec 2012 10:04:16 +0000 Dick Everyman 152450@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I ordered fifty gallons of the stuff and now have to find somewhere to store it. The cellar seems the best option at the moment. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=52961#post-152445 Sat, 08 Dec 2012 08:47:21 +0000 dvo4fun 152445@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Sinnick: There was a red diesel ref in a NiB yesterday which may well have been the trigger. Was it a generic ad or promoting one particular brand?</p> <p>Edit: I haven't seen the red diesel but do get a lot of ads relating to alzheimers, pensions, inheritence tax planning and dating of the older woman </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=52961#post-152444 Sat, 08 Dec 2012 08:43:26 +0000 Sinnick 152444@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Now, maybe I've got this wrong, but surely all farmers &amp; construction companies who are legally entitled to use this fuel are probably already aware of it.</p> <p>So, why does it need to be advertised widely (not just here) ? Surely they're not encouraging illegal use ? </p>
