Not mine.:A Managed to match my insurer's quote using LV, who do business over t'internet, anytime.

And all's well that ends well, 'cos I got DW out of a social event she was not looking forward to, but she couldn't say so earlier! :rotfl:

Sorry IHS, but I totally disagree with this *advice* Eight years ago we had been going through a pretty bad time (serious health issues and loss of a parent after a prolonged illness) and DH in his distress forgot to re-insure DS's (then aged 17 and about to sit four A levels) car. He was chased by the police, pulled over and cautioned (in front of DH & I who were passengers) then went through a horrifying time whilst awaiting prosecution. It was only thanks to the efforts of our amazing family solicitor who put forward mitigating circumstances, that the police dropped the whole issue......

I would NEVER, EVER advise anyone to forgo getting their vehicle insured, whatever the circumstances or for however brief a period :eek:

BD, great to see you back - hope all is ok with you guys? Loved the pic of your 'girls' on the chicken thread xxx

I have been absent the last couple of weeks as we suffered a nasty stalking incident by a family member on Facebook, which prompted us to rethink our online security, quit FB altogether (no loss as I hate the place personally) and take a self-imposed break from all things forum related

I think IHS's comment was tongue in cheek more than advice... high-lighting the twa*s that don't bother.
its more the poor sod they hit than any fine they get.

I nipped to the shops just now and got these !! £31 worth for £3.10p spotted the date, asked a young lad and he reduced them looooove a bargain ...

Lovely amount of flowers there for £3!!! :A

I love a bargain too, so I'm pleased to say I've just won a wheeled brush cutter at last, at a fair price too, though waiting to bid till the last 30 seconds did my head in! :eek::eek:According to the owner, who sounds elderly and straight, it's only ever been used twice. As luck would have it, DW is in his area......:cool:...what a coincidence!

So glad to see you posting again, phoebe. We wondered where you'd gone.

And Better Days is here too...:TWith Rummer and lucielle also dropping by, it's definitely a quorum, whatever that is! :rotfl:

Waiting for one of our sows to give birth... Had a bit of a panic yesterday afternoon when I was at the ranch on my own...

A few more successes from 'rescue plants', the pepper has set fruits and one of the orchids (Dendrobium?) has managed a smattering of flowers.

Also, the giant knapweed (Centaurea macrocephala) I brought with me has finally kicked into gear and is chest high with plenty of buds.

Still very cool (16C) though...

Fish situation isn't the best at the moment - maybe it is time for a different species as pets -
