From Trash to Cash: the Dribbling never ends

OK,

I have been naughty and need to admit it somewhere and bought a car alarm... Its only £35 and from ebay, and I have justified it by stating its for hte car thats going to become the daily driver but some !!!!!! tried to pinch.

Trouble is I still need a set of tyres and a new turbo to get it on the road - So I have bought the £35 item but not hte £200 items lol

evenstar I can almost feel your worry and stomach churning in your posts my heart really and truly goes out to you.

jo70mo

haha NLID thats funny. but guess you will need all those things eventually. no use getting it roadworthy without an alarm by the sounds of it. so you just got the cheapest item on the list first.
I can justify most things if I put my mind to it.

nolongerindenial

yeah - funny thats my justification as I am not looking forward to putting £200 worth of tyres on there - and am on the lookout for a second hand turbo to try and minimise that cost but htose are still £100 to my door

jo70mo

right everyone I'm off to bed now. sweet dreams.
hugs to all those who have had a difficult day today. and especially thinking of babymoo right now.

Well, the way I see it NLID, is that if you didn't have the alarm, the car could be pinched, an then your new set of tyres and turbo would be useless!!

Even, will apologise if I sorta overstepped, I guess I have been doing an awful lot of thinking the past few weeks. I can imagine how hard this is on you. I think it is always harder when it is your own family member, wanting to help, guide and keep safe, however doing so at the risk of yourself. I think the hardest thing to do is to step back, and I do feel you concentrating on your grand daughter is great as she must certainly be feeling confused or unsure about things as well.

right really gone now! night night xx
