  • Thanks. I am praying that my (stupid, electronic) handbrake doesn't stick on leaving us stranded!
  • I have to say I'm not a fan of electronic hand brakes either. Enjoy the rally :)
  • Thank you. I REALLY need to get fit.
  • Sounds like you need just the right buyer to come along. A big family who hate gardening. They will be out there somewhere, fingers crossed. I think if we tried to sell we would have a similar problem as our garden is quite small and dominated by oh's home bar!
    Paid off mortgage nine years early in 2013. Now picking and choosing our work to fit in with the rest of our lives!
    Still thrifty though, after all these years:D
  • Brilliant!
    I think you're right, Squirrel.
    The handbrake behaved but the hydraulic struts have gone on the trailer ramp...
  • Ooh. Went for a drive by of the house in Black Dog.
    Exciting. Though it is next to a graveyard.

    Quiet neighbours though.

    So does that mean thatthat land won't ever get built on?

  • I guess. They do move graveyards don't they, but probably not really rural ones.
