    I like the highlights too :)

    And isn't the Dacia Sandero the car that James May loves almost as much as his Fiat Panda? Little blue car is a great buy!

    Lots of my stuff lasted ages as well......... except the wine. Must have evaporated or something :D.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Happy Birthday, lovely lady! _party_
    a penny picker upper. MFW approx 78% to go | FIRE 3 years worth (30% savings rate: now aiming for 40%!) | Normality is a paved road; it's comfortable to walk, but no flowers grow on it | Whatever you're meant to do, do it now. The conditions are always impossible | The only thing you absolutely have to know, is the location of the library
