As I say, I'm not sure they ever registered that I bought the car

You should have been given a slip to fill in and send off when you bought it. Actually, if they haven't done that then it's still up to the garage to tax it as it is still technically theirs!

Hope you get some lovely Yummy Mummy clothes on your spree Wendz!

You should have received the V5C through the post once the garage registered you as the new keeper, is that right? So you should have it.

EDIT - sorry for saying the same as everyone else, took me ages to write this post!

Museum launch event? Is this to do with the cake cases or have I missed something?!

Thanks so much for your donations girls! I've now met my target which is brill! Kept it quite low so I wouldn't have to bear the shame of not hitting it haha! Just managed a 4k run so feeling very positive about it all

Argh Cinny I hope it's just the pads, but the braking itself seems fine, it's just really noisy!

Yep, cake cases are at the museum.

I did fill in the slip, but its for the person selling the car to send off.

Greg was breaking fine at first, but then because I left it so long he was getting slower and slower at stopping. Did make a bladdy awful noise though, like you said with 'spades on pavement' 'orrible!

I've donated too *polishes halo* wish I could afford more, but our budget is so tight atm! I don't think I qualify for giftaid anymore, the new limits bring my 4 weekly wage to just under it. Dorf!

My Brother and a guy from work have fiiinally put the gravel in our garden. OH was having a bloody fit the other day wanting to get it sorted before his family come for a BBQ. So hopefully he'll stop going on about it now. And our garden will look 'finished' to a degree

You can tell it's been a while since I bought a car, couldn't remember who sends the form off! Check with the garage, they probably got your reminder letter!

OH just bought me Tangled on Blu-Ray, yay! I have to wait till Saturday to watch it though, it is going to torment me until then!

N.I.M

So finally get my lunch at half 1 today cause some of my colleages cant be bothered to check if they are typing in the right postcodes. The result of that is indicating nearly a 20% drop in expenditure in the entirity of the mid west. Good to pass over to a director eh?

This leaves me looking like a muppet as it came through me. At least I got the data out quickly, with a well done, so hopefully the damage isnt too bad.

Good Morning MSE-World! Hope everyone's okay, I overslept by like 40 minutes this morning. Yikes. Working overtime 2 days and forgot to set my alarm last night Was up until past midnight too watching Ghost Hunters with OH. Came to work on my bike though which woke me up a little!

At least you saw and managed to fix the fault NIM, it could have been mucho worseo! (Did you all know I can speak fluent Mexican?!)

Had a decent baking sesh last night for things OH can take to work too nibble on. Pizza swirly-twirls from Tete's Blog, brown sauce and cheese scones, and flapjacks. Should keep him happy for a while! Though I was only baking for an hour and a bit, noticed Baby Mama was on and I love Tina Fey!

Went to see the DVLA, discovered my car isn't registered to anyone, so we have to pay £25 to get a log book, and then present the MOT and certificate of insurance to get tax. So thats a job for this weekend.

Good to see the garage you purchased the car from know what they are doing.
