Something like that Dean! They quoted me £190 on the phone yesterday, including MOT price, but when I just went to pick it up, they said they has mispriced it, so it cost £122 in total. Then £75 for the road tax, so call it £200 the lot. But, it's done, and worth it, so I'm happy!
OH's car due it's MOT/service this month- I better remind him again. Luckily there's a really good, reliable garage on the industrial estate where he works. The sort that wont do un-nec work, always phones you to discuss options etc. Think most people at the factory, including the boss/ex-boss, use his services.
Hi Dean, am sniffling too. Mine due to drugs though- honestly. Kept feeling was getting a cold & mentioned it to a nurse. Nope, yet another side-effect. Still only 1 more lot of that to go, whoopee.
Just realised that havent got to do any ironing tonight. Daughter does her own washing now- yay- as does OH at the little house, so wont have to iron 2x a week. Mind you still wearing jumpers around here, so no ironing of those anyway. J.
G'day, forkers--grey and gloomy again here today and tomorrow;hopefully better by the weekend for my niece's last visit before heading back to Oz. I will miss her.
I am on WW too-down a bit this week--surprising, as I indulged in a burger and chips in town last week. But I ran around shopping so much that day that I guess I burned it off.
The catkin buds are swelling already on my birthday bonsai willow--would be great if they were out on the day--but that's tomorrow, so not likely.
Beginning another sweater today--hope I'll do a better job this time, since I've had the practise.
My 89 year old friend has had some complications from her operation--a Whipple, for those of you in the know---fingers crossed. She is still in Intensive Care.
Becks, yes, I too have a 'tame' mechanic, who only lives up the road nowadays. He's kept most of our cars going over the yrs, once the warrenty finished etc. Think he's sort of retired now, so may go over to stay at 'little house' & use garage over there when mine due in the summer. J.
