We have a 25 year old Mazda Bongo, not had many problems in all the years we have had it accept rust 🤣🤣 which is not such a surprise as we live up a muddy track.ladyholly said:These old cars are amazing if you have a good one. Our 22yearold Mazda Bongo flew through its MOT last week with only one advisory for thinning brake pads. DH was chuffed as thats the 4th year it has passed with no problem. The tester said he will find something eventually and laughed.

Glad the car has a clean bill of health - it must know its well-loved. Don't let it hear you talking about getting rid 4

Continuing on the good news theme, after an hour on the phone with the mortgage advisor we have the mortgage accepted and mortgage offer issued.

It will be a low spend day today. We need to get some fruit and vegetables from the farm shop and the dog is having his hair cut. No other planned spends though.
Breakfast and dinner will be from stores. Full English breakfast as its the weekend and pasta bake and garlic bread for dinner later.
Not a lot planned for today really. The weather looks set to be rubbish.4 -
Pasta bake and garlic bread sounds like perfect Saturday night comfort food. At least the rain has cleared the snow away.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)4

Still snow on the ground here. It was sheet ice this morning on the footpaths. The sun is out now though and the snow and ice are thawing out very quickly.Sun_Addict said:Pasta bake and garlic bread sounds like perfect Saturday night comfort food. At least the rain has cleared the snow away.
