Posted on 14/04/2017 19:19 by TakethedogalongTip for anyone who collects them: we decided to have a look around a few second hand vans at a local dealer near us. Part of the sales speak at one van we browsed proved very amusing. We were told that the van in question had hardly been used. The look of shock on the face of the dealer when I showed him the dozens of Club Site plaques inside the wardrobe door was priceless! Hardly used my......!
So, if you are missing a few, and don't like the new ones, browse a few second hand vans!

The quantity of plaques in a van doesn't necessarily mean that the outfit has visited all the sites named. They could easily have been moved from one van to another. We have also visited dozens of club sites and got a plaque on our first visit to each one but we've done this over the years in about 10 different vans. They aren't everyone's cup of tea but we like them as a reminder of where we've been. I don't like the new logo though so may not continue buying plaques.

I have noticed that recently bought plaques in the "white series" have different shades of colour from the first ones I obtained. This could mean
- Marketing have realised the the funeral home colour scheme is a detractor.
- The inks used in the printing fade very quickly.
When were the first ever plaques issued? Anyone that old still breathing?

Posted on 28/11/2018 21:46 by DavidKlyneit's amazing what people try to sell on e-bay! I have quite a lot of old ones in a bag, perhaps I will make my fortune?
