    Hi everyone - I've had another lazy morning to make up for the normal early busy ones - Mr 3Dogs got up at 8.30 am and rang that guy, who did have a reconditioned starter motor which he would deliver at 1 pm for £60 :j :j Result at last :j :j

    He let me sleep and brought me breakfast in bed about 10.30 am :kisses3: I then went back to sleep until a knock at the door woke me again at 12.30 pm :eek: It was the guy with the part, so I got up and had my shower ready for slimming class and he started fixing the van. I just went out to check how he was doing as I would have to go out for he bus at 1.30 pm, and he was just tightening the last bolt up. He turned the ignition key and ...........................................................................





    we have ignition and the van is back on the road 00020141.gif

    So Mr 3Dogs is having his shower and we will be off to class at 2.15 pm as normal, £60 poorer but that's about what he made on Friday and Saturday at the car boot, after expenses, so at least we had the money to do it, without 'robbing Peter', so that's an improvement

    Afternoon 3dogs,

    Well done in ur Hubbie fixing the van. Glad your both back on 4 wheels again and that transmission can resume.
    So no more lying inn again 3dogs as you now have to take mr 3dogs to the car boot sales.

    Wish i could have breakfast in bed like some ppl.:eek: Look forward to hearing how you both went on with the slimming class later.

    Weve just been for a nice walk in the New Forest National Park, As it a glorious day and didnt want to stay indoors while the weather is good.

    Good news and bad news from our slimming class – I lost 2 ½ pounds taking me to my best weight loss total yet of 4 stone 3 pounds so I’m really chuffed with myself :j, but Mr 3Dogs put 4 ½ pounds on – mind you he had to own up to having a massive bag of dark chocolate caramels yesterday at the car boot, so that didn’t help did it? :eek:
    It's been a gorgeous day again here so I hope you all had similar weather - I see you have St Steven and have made the most of it too :D

    Hooray, van is repaired!!!! Fantastic news on Weightloss tell Mr 3Dogs not to worry. You can tell he has good taste as he likes nice sweets. He did need them with all the stress of the last few days. Next week will be better I am sure. Just having supper now. Class finished late!
