Fifteen quid! You can get more (and probably better) than that in any supermarket restaurant for about a fiver!
Absolutely!! Try another slice of toast Steve, if you feel better and less sickly, then you're hungry. Just had a meat and potato pie for dinner, will wash it down with a coffee and a kit kat. Y. I really want to go and see that Volvo I linked to last night, but stuck on a commercial job until Thursday,and dealer closes at 5, so no time to go before weekend.

The email was a special offer of £15 for a full English breakfast and £18 for a gourmet lunch. I already paid £58 for the exit seat with the extra leg room. It's appalling how BA have gone so penny pinching.

Would you pay £15 for this ...?



Blimey is that a hamsters meal!, Not worth half that Phil.

No offence taken mate - to be honest, I wasn't looking for a black car, but the combination of very low mileage, service history and price meant it was too good a car to miss.
The Volvo range was definitely in my sights, but it had a similar problem to the Rover - they were too low on the ground for the missus and I get in and out of easily. One thing I did learn about the Volvo range was to avoid the R Design model - they apparently have much stiffer suspension, and allied to very low profile tyres, the alloy wheels are very susceptible to damage (that came from people who owned them).

Brian has been here for a few hours, doing one test after another, and he knows which wires are at fault, but not where. Going to have to make up an exact replica of the wires concerned, to test both circuits, and find out which is at fault. Im sick off vehicles, both car and vans necessary evil, bit think the car will be going sooner rather than later now, as well as the van. Time for something newer that doesn't need to be worked on all the time.
You are really lucky having a magician like Brian on you're doorstep .
