After a new handbrake cable we were all mot'd. Old one was just not going to play nicely ;) . This weekend it was tax and insurance time so we're on the road. Happy days :D

Mixed emotions with the insurance..... I went with Saga as the cheapest... I have to accept im getting old, I suppose with £134 as the premium its not all bad :D A little drive through the forest for the first outing went well :D

I'm missing her! ;-( but glad she has found a good home with Martin.

Washed and waxed we went to PoL in Longbridge even though the show was cancelled, loads of cars turned up around Cofton Park. :clapping
