Absolutly Unreal

Hi guys,

Just returned home from a lovely break in the sun again and bumped into Alan who does the removals. Now iv heard a lot about him, thats why im posting on here, but this was the first time iv met the bloke.

This bit is 'Absolutly Unreal', what happened to him. anyway I got talking to this Alan and he told me he was parked up at Valencia on his way into Spain to drop off his removal furniture, fully loaded i assume. Within 20 mins of parking up, sum1 had cut the rubber seal off his van window, taken the window out, and grabbed him by the neck. He vowed to sleep in the van for security of everyones goods, and has vowed to continue doing so, albeit dangerous and frightening. Said he wouldnt check into a hotel unless he was empty, preffering to be with peoples furniture etc until he dropped it off. He says he's setting up more security, grills on the windows and bolt locks on side doors etc when he gets home (this was last week i spoke 2 him)

I must say, he has some bottle 2 carry on doing this, and even risk his own safety, all to protect peoples items/furniture. Seemed a nice bloke as well.

Hey i also heard about this a few days ago. poor alan. but credit to the man for not quitting or whatever, he's got more gall than me!!!!!! either that or just mad lol

We see Alan everytime he comes over and I can tell you he is a great guy that has your best interests at heart all the time, See you next time Alan, keep up the good work.

Hi Alan

Sorry to hear of your ordeal!  

Keep the good work up as I know you've helped alot of people in the last 12 months including me.

If you are on the Condado around the 4th July maybe catch up with you for a drink.

what happend near Valencia,

was only a wake up call that i could step up security

and it can happen to the  ones who think they are safe.

who of all people would think a ex SAS man

would be gassed and robbed in Turkey(of all people you would not belive)

but now atleast i know they may still be able to put me to sleep But would not  be able to get in through Grills and locks

glad to hear your ok and still moving peoples stuff. ur security is top notch now then eh? better safe than sorry.

also il private message you tomorrow with a list, need a few items picking up from the uk and bringing over to me. am not in a great rush for it mind, but how often are you doing removals to spain etc now?
