    :j:j:j Hooray :j:j:j
    I miss a day or so and come back to find you’ve ordered the scooter. I’m so pleased for you. It will make such a difference to you. You have lovely places right on your doorstep. - we travelled hundreds of miles to visit such lovely scenery - not realising they were so close to you - ENJOY :j
    When does your current lease on the car run out - is it too long to use your scooter home based and change the car to one with the hoist at the end of the term or do you need it sooner than that?
    So what colour have you chosen ?

    That could change!!

    Now all you need to do is have a scooter party so we can pimp it with glitter :D:D
    As a dear MSE friend says “keep plodding” or
    What does the saying say.... When life hands you lemons, make lemonade
    Or as my Mum would say, brush yourself down, tomorrow is another day or
    Fake it, to you Make It
