    Great news on the car, so much better choice now than there used to be. My Mum kept her own car and took the money, spent it on a cleaner and gardener instead :D but that was years ago.

    Yes JayJay, there are so many to choose from - spoilt for choice really, which was great :j

    I hope it doesn't take long Beanie, can't see it being a problem, and as soon as they have the go-ahead from Motability, the car is [STRIKE]ours[/STRIKE] :o Alan's. Still no Blue Badge :( but I have a feeling that it will come tomorrow - well I hope so, as we are at the hospital on Tuesday and Wednesday and it will save £2.60 parking fee plus better parking place ;) We chose the car for it's height for getting in and out plus it's size for getting walker/wheelchair in the back

    Is your back any easier now hun?

    We were waiting in for a delivery this morning so didn't get down to the car boot till about 11.30am when the stallholders were packing up, or already had, so just had a cooked breakfast in the cafe, and read the newspapers :money: From there we checked in at the auction but nothing to interest us, so just popped to Ald1 and A$da for some shopping and then picked up our meds at surgery dispensary before heading home

    Alan was tired by then so while he had a nap, I did the washing up, popped next door to feed dog neighbour away for weekend, and then to Linda's for a natter over a cuppa. So a 'normal' day for us

    It seems ages since I did a good Mr T shop but hoping for one tomorrow. I am just going to check my coupon wallet and notebook to plan my shop ;)

    Thought you might like to see pics of some of Alan's hats that he used to wear at the car boot. Kids adored them, as did adults, and some used to come to the stall every week to see which one he had on that day ;)

    This one is my favourite :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Bilmy Beanie, keep falling at that rate and you'd be better off drinking! At least it would dull the pain when you first fall.
