    I've been Money Tipped!
    Not too busy.

    Was able to put my electric fence back to where it should be, take the doctor's secretary a box of chocs. Then lay on the sofa hot and feeling sorry for the guys working outside in the hot hot hot heat.

    PN in shopping trip to Sandbanks shocker.

    Sound the alarm. POSH ALERT.
    Oh, I'm there all the time, most days in fact. I have to go there ... so I can be seen leaving the area (not so the police can stand easy, but because if you're seen leaving the area you must live there)..... welcome to my logic.

    Actually, I went there because something I wanted was £10-12 cheaper than I was finding it in town.

    No 'fraid not. DD only has a bike. There's a lot of biking in B during term time. :)

    Up-side: it's near Asda and she knows when to look for Whoopsies..
    LOL/whoopsies. The off-road parking is more important to me than an en-suite, which is why I didn't ask if it had one of those.

    I get palpitations if I'm separated from my car as it represents my freedom.

    Oh, i think they like their jobs. They laugh all the time, which makes me happy. They sing a lot too, which makes me laugh, so we are all happy.

    They did just have a central locking failure. Their days are very long, so they ooked desperate, but it seems to have righted itself.

    I think sympathy and aftersun will definietly be required on their weekend.

    Guess what I've bought today!

    I owned this car once before, from 2003 to 2008, and I'm going to be so happy to get it back! The bloke's in the UK in early September, and is going to lovingly drive it back for me! It's not been exported from the UK yet (on paper), so no paperwork :D

    Here's the photos from last time! I'm so glad to see that it's only subtly different!
