Beanie just caught up sending cyber hugs and strength to handle the accident issues be they insurance or your own bumps and bruises. Have a snuggle with your puddycat, and a nip of something warm. Take care Andrea5

Sorry to hear about all the problems with the car and pleased it's moving on a little bit, and you have a car to get you around. I hate getting new cars - I have to hire for work. I always get confused! Take it easy and relax - you deserve it.Save £20,000 in 2025. April 2k, May 3.5k5

@beanielou - belated sympathies for the accident - I'm still waiting to get ours back a fortnight after it went in for repairs 🥴5

I'm very sorry to hear about your accident Beanie and very glad you weren't hurt. It must have been very traumatic for you. I hope you manage to get a new permanent car sorted out soon.
It's great news that you only have a month before you're mortgage free. A rasberry gin and orange smartie virtual party is a brilliant idea from Sunshine_Girl.
