What's all that about then, have I missed some thing.

You have had a lot to work through Steve and despite this, I admire your ability to keep your chin up and keep us entertained with your sense of humour and being able to crack a joke seems to be a bonus for all who enter the lounge

Jessica is doing okay thank you I am holding on until I get to London to sort a mechanical problem out. I have it strapped with duck tape

Another member sent me a PM Julien about it..... Thank you Sir! My own feeling for those who never see 'eye to eye', the 'ignore button' is an appropriate feature. I suspect it's underused....

I read that, rather you than me! Dunno what I fancy less, the problem itself or removing the duck tape

Just back from a walk along to the shops and back, carless at the moment. 1.8T has been off the road for a long time, V8 broke a water connection on the inlet manifold (known weak spot). I have another manifold but waiting for a gasket set coming from Donald Trump Land.

Thank you Steve .....

Apologies, ran out of thanks today. Thats an awful long way to come, something to do with it being a Ford Mustang engine, am guessing. Hopefully all will be well, sooner than later Steve

Regrettably, the two have conflicting views on a certain subject and I'm afraid they are never going to see eye to eye on it

Yeah, hunted the UK but nothing coming up, had to go t'other side of the pond. Allegedly it could be here as early as the 11th but I'm not holding my breath. Tracking number shows it some place in Illinois "in transit" . . . . great tracking system, can even tell you what kind of van it is in

Steve and Georgie

Together Forever

Lonely days are long
Twilight sings a song
All the happiness that used to be

Soon my eyes will close
Soon I'll find repose
And in dreams, you're always near to me

I'll see you in my dreams
And then I'll hold you in my dreams
