Just been asked to go to the Seychelles for two weeks in May, it's a hard slog but someone's got to do it!

Sounds awful Phil.


Just had notification that my money will all be in the bank tomorrow, and that the GTS will be ready to be picked up on Saturday morning.
It's also just had a major service at a cost of over 2 grand!

Happy days!!!!!!!

Ok so the Admissions team phoned this morning to discuss tomorrows op on Alex's other hand which we understood they didn't do last weekend as the elbow took them over 5 hours alone to sort out the carnage! And we now discover that when they looked at the scan/X-rays in detail they discovered four other breaks in the carpals and other wrist parts! So it looks like tomorrows operation is also going to be a bit long winded...

Basically this lot is also a mess!

Ouch! Sorry to hear that, Newton. Poor sod. Hopefully the op isn't too arduous and Alex will be on form again soon.

A very early good morning to you all. At Miami airport in the lounge and limbering up for the boarding stampede. It's been a varied and good week but I can't wait to get home. Next week will be a challenge, and more travel, so I need to carve out a restful weekend to focus on what matters. If they can remember who I am! I struggle to remember myself at times, so maybe they can remind me.

Hope Alex gets sorted Newton.
This is going to be costing the other insurance company I'm guessing.
Phil do you need anyone to carry your bags mate ?
Mark I'm getting excited for you down here mate :)

Morning,

Late for me but I'm in no real rush this morning. WFH again and no crack of dawn call for a change.

Hope the operation goes well Newton.

Car cleaning later if the weather holds.

Have a good day everyone.

Morning all, thanks for the support for Alex he is a bit down at the moment. Off to Hackney with a team today to rattle through repairs.

Have fun all...

Morning all. Off to London for a meeting first thing.
If nothing looks forthcoming on the sale of my car I might even pick my new one up this afternoon!
I seriously can't wait!

Morning all, meeting up with some young whipper snapper who I mugged off on my old runabout/snotter this morning to tell him to scrap it! :D

Nah off on school run soon (Rock N Roll) and then got a nice leisurely drive up to Manchester to see Soprano Stu for some beers in town tonight. Few hours at the BBC tomorrow then back darn Sarf. Have a great weekend all and Geoff I want a call from the GTS in SPORT mode with windows down and some blasts :D

I give it 2 weeks before you have had an X pipe made for it.

Wouldnt even get anything if i weighed it in. The previous owner was a right pikey t***. Hes got a Gt now which sounds like the exhaust is hanging off.
