    right update on the car thingie...

    right mum was going to see that clio saturday but i checked my account in the morning and the money wasnt showing so i told her not to go. Anyways i checked my accounts today and the reason why it wasnt showing was i asked for it on my dormant account rather than my 'used' account. So i one respect i am shocked that i got it as i havent put anything in that account for a month! Tottaly unsure of what to do now? do i go and see it someday this week (she didnt let it go on ebay) or do i wait untill the 3rd and go a visit some garages maybe? :confused:

    Glad you had such a good time PAP - first the driving and now the weekend, what next??? People always say bad things happen in 3s so I like to believe good things do too.

    Hope this encourages you to go out a wee bit more, there are nice people out there...x

    Why not visit a few garages and see what sort of thing u can get for what u want to spend.... you could give them a test drive too, ur under no obligation to buy....
    And we'll see about the £10......

    raph and gem deffo :j thats the prob living down south. I think london was mentioned before but somehow i think they are swaying to lennys house etc. I think it depends what you/we all want to do at the meet to which area we end in?
