    Where is carol then? Haven't seen her around for while?

    ETA: Sorry, lazy post. I see from further reading it appears no one knows. Or chucky. Quite a few names are missing recently aren't they?

    Best wishes IM :-)

    Various things:

    1] Best wishes winging their way to Insp. Monkfish

    2] LIR - hatchback, look at that shape, impractical for your home needs - look into cars that are square at the back/sides with a good rear door, there are some quite small ones these days... something that has no rear lip, that you can load animals and cargo into. I can't find any names at the moment... but there are small ones.

    My best wishes to the Inspector too.


    LIR, have a look at the Panda 4x4. Not the fastest car on the road, but it sips petrol and is a really cheap 4WD that's small but a useful size inside.

    Actually, what I said about a rear door and no lip .... I have had an experience that I wish to forget .... it involved a boot full of shopping ... and a rear door that didn't quite close properly .... and a bit of a nifty getaway :(

    So, when you get one, it's also handy to have a big plank that fits snugly right across the back, in case the door opens :)

    Get thee gone!!!

    I have managed to engineer a lifestyle that doesn't involve any of that. Although, to be fair, it's not that lucrative either .... d4mn.

    Ha... who said my life of 'work' was lucrative! I'm on a redundancy notice, and they have decided to give me a 'trial' at another job within the company. So great, you feel down enough, then they won't even move you to another job, only a trial. And to cap it all, they only give the statutory redundancy pay, which is a lot less than had it been based on my weekly salary... cheapskates

    If you are so keen I can work something like that.

    Please to send me soonest one of these.....

    I think I'd be good for stacking at least 2 logs before requiring a tea break and completely losing any interest/will to live... and that'd be in good weather.
