Always check out noseweight before every journey. never seen anyone else do it on a site yet. Never seen anyone torque their wheel nuts before they set off either. Some check lights but many don't bother. It's only a huge chunk of metal and plastic pivoted on a tennis ball anyway.

Get it right o nthe outward journey and it can still be different coming home. Gas cylindar empties and you put a new full one in there and that gives you some extra weight right at the front. All the food eaten and the van is lighter. Just little things can affect the weight, as you say, so its worth doing it by the book in my view.

Spotted a van coming into Brid the other week and the Jockey wheel touched the floor when the van hit a bump/hole in the road as the front was so low. We wondered if the driver kept saying "Can you hear that?" "Wonder what it is"
