Looks nice. We went to the Wheatsheaf Farm near the airport for tea, as we had a cacky week too. Weather has been naff, car been in bodyshop all week, first they sent the wrong paint, which delayed the process by a day, then this afternoon I went to collect it and the bumper was painted but not on the car. Guess what? Wrong bumper, this one was for earlier model. So another bumper has been acquired right one this time.Just means another 2 days at the bodyshop when it arrives.

Yep! Tell me about it.
Constant bad luck.
Was hoping to get Bri to tag along and help me view a van , but can't get hold of him. Might try him again over the weekend.

Yes, me. I also wipe the seat of a public bog with toilet paper and line it with with the paper too before seating myself on it. I've seen far too many use these facilities and then leave without washing their hands.

Great news then Phil relative to what could have been. Fingers crossed that all will be good in 6 months and beyond. Your posts on health matters given your extensive background in the field I think will be helpful and reassuring to many who read them. I for one think they are and I know that other members do too having read in some of the pm's to me of their gratitude for the help and advice you have given to them in private.
