Remember that. I just made it up as an aide memoire.

Now will you lot please go and get some sleep...
PMH? Is that Poo Miles per Hour?
Thanks for that Mike, I'll try to remember it.
Where Satan is concerned PMH = Past Mechanics Help. he's definitely heading for the scrapyard in the [STRIKE]sky[/STRIKE] underworld.
Anyway, it seems that 8 pints of water in the rad and about 1 pint of new oil has done the trick. Thermometer remained at normal driving in to work today and I have to admit I was a little late this morning so I had to do speed limit + 10% + 3 in places. The irony of it was that I was made late because I'd forgotten to get my tax so had to order it online this morning and print out the receipt just in case I get stopped.
Hopefully Satan will stay ok till towards the end of this month so I will at least get the benefit of one month's tax!
Anyway, back to page 160whatever I got up to.
Be back soon!

£55 + VAT + Delivery (and a 6 week wait for the parts) for a door mirror glass, all because some myopic schmuck in a s**tbox camper van didn't know how wide his vehicle was in Petworth this morning :mad:
I won't bore you with the small amount of grief we encountered on the job, and as for the pink shirt wearing t*at in the rental van on the way back at the 331 turnoff......
Now I remember the beauty in having a car such as Satan.
Bit's get knocked off or fall off you just leave them! It's not going to devalue the car by not being there and not going to add value by replacing!
Simplez!
Poo's logic surfaces again.

Thanks for that Sarsie.
I'll be there at 4.00pm latest on the 17th. SB is staying at the Sea Breeze as well as me and will also be there on the 17th although I don't know her eta. We are both staying until Sunday.
Jes, if you're not booked in yet, I believe there are still rooms available at the Sea Breeze (call Keith on 01903719 885 - tell him you are one of us (MSEers and mention me Michelle and Julie).
Hope that helps.

Aww Sb. If it's any consolation, the grass isn't really greener on the other side, it's just a different shade of green!
Sometimes I wish there was someone here to tell me to get off the pc and go to bed. And to get up in the morning. And to do the washing up - must do that tomorrow! And to stop snacking and go make a proper meal!
Hmm.. maybe not!
PooNot my OH honey, if I'd told him to FO he'd be out the door and telling me he'd be back at closing time! :cool:
For some reason, the dear little boy I gave life to 19yrs ago risks me taking that life back everytime the little shhhhhwetheart thinks HE can tell ME what to do!! :cool:I missed a couple of days and am obviously way behind!
Thanks for the nice messages peeps - mum is in hospital, which has been looming for a while and at least she's safe there (!) (she will be helped if she falls, etc.) but it means I'll be away from the action this weekend, (grrr) as I'm going over to visit. She lives quite a way from me.
I don't think there's any point me telling you to behave yourselves in my absence, so have fun!:D
I may try to catch up between then & now but the world outside the computer has a way of intervening so I'm not making any promises.
Oooh - got to boast about something before I go - got a new phone and effectively saved £40 by getting it online :T. I'm quite incapable of juggling all the technicalities of how to shave the last ha'penny off the price (giving my age away here) so I am rather pleased with thisJust pleeeease don't tell me I could have got it cheaper somehow other!
Okay you may all go back to plans now - please someone do a little of Mike's Doll's House in my name
Got a can of spray paint today, thought a bit of graffitti on the outside walls with your name on it would be a permanant reminder that yes
MIGGY WAS HERE!

Yippee!!! I finally caught up! This has got to be my all time favourite thread, had to read all the way through. You people on here are really great. It restores your faith in human kind, which for me was wrecked totally after my cowboy builder, the ex neighbour who conned me, the ex friend who stole from me and the ex partner who walked all over me! It's OK cuz I have made arrangements to have the M U G tattoo on my forehead removed by laser!!:)
Wishing you all well for the re-fit, hope all goes well. Will keep checking to see when the show will be aired.
All the best to you Mike, I hope the saga ends well with you being able to get your money back from that tish head of a bodger. (oh, I can see if I can order you a pack of Tena, but being in different counties I'm not sure how this would work. Failing that I could check the stock cupboard at work for some conveens?!):rotfl:
Will use this forum to post a thread soon to see if I can get some advice re a CCJ awarded to me but no payment received yet.
Well done and keep up the good work.
Sue xNow I feel guilty for not PMing you the shortcut to the summary!
Glad you enjoyed the read though Sue, a few of us around here had one of those tatoos so know just how you feel! Hope you stick around honey, you're amongst real friends here!I am downright bloody DETERMINED to end up with ONE peice of paper to print out and take with me.

Sarsie I feel your pain!
Can't help fill any blanks I'm afraid, hopefully know more tomorrow.
Ummm, Will be there for 3 nights though!
Tried to e-mail some of you tonight but mail to Butti and psycho won't go through, doesn't matter now though as Sarsie is a very good PI
