    Morning, sun is shining here as well although I don’t get sun round back garden until about lunchtime. 
    Did they say how long you’ll have to wait until you get your scan results. 

    Enjoy your day x
    No, no exact date apart from that they’ll be sent to the consultant and then he’ll phone me. Hopefully that is soon as it seems work are waiting on information before making any movement. 

    I get the sun pretty much all day at some place in the garden. I was just planning what I am going to do once the rabbits aren’t around. Sadly, they have made a mess of the garden. No point doing anything whilst they’re still about though. X

  • Oh Willow XX I am sorry firstly that you have been ill and secondly that our industry and that is what it is now is doing it's horrible crappy bit. I will never trust the bosses ever. They are ruthless. And ultimately we do always know. Although I have decided I like some of the people up top I know they would throw me under rows of buses if they felt it benefitted them. 

     Impressive savings, and yes, rabbits are suprisingly destructive, I have a lot of empathy for that insane farmer in Peter Rabbit! 
    Nevertheless she persisted.

    Yes, I sympathise with him too looking at at the amount of full on bikes I have in my garden. No matter what I do, they find a way to dig it back!

    Just when I thought things were on an even keel I heard a crack on the way home. Couldn’t see anything but just got in the car again to see a huge crack. It’s not repairable because of where the chip is. New windscreen required 🤦🏼‍♀️

    Oh no.There’s always something 😩 You used to be able to claim for windscreens without losing your no claims. Hopefully this is still the case 🤞

    @Sun_Addict - that's only true if you've paid extra for that option.  Have to say it's definitely something we always think is worth paying for.

    Yes, I thought so too until I realised it was more expensive the ‘excess’ for a new windscreen than my local garage doing it. A chip isn’t so much but this is a full replacement. I’ve just booked my MOT and service in too as my MOT is due and now this. It won’t pass without it being done and if I’m honest, I wouldn’t run the risk of it cracking further. It’s now about 10cm and that’s from not being able to see it at all. I couldn’t find where it had hit when I first heard it to now seeing it as soon as I sit down. I’ll have it done by mid week, I’ve just requested quotes which will be back by Monday.
