Morning all. Currently at Euston station heading North to potentially buy a new work horse.
Have a rucksack stuffed with the requisite amount of cash so hopefully I won’t be mugged!

Will let you know how it goes.

Are there many trains on New Year’s Day, Mark? Regardless, well done on getting up and out early on a holiday.

Morning, all. Quiet day trying to shake off a bloody cold/flu thing, a gift from Mrs Crud.

Yep. Full service. I guess all Engineering works are done by NYE so drunkards can get home.

Good morning everyone!
I'm enjoying the Vienna New Year's Day concert. I always particularly like the bits when they get the State Ballet involved.
Other than that, my godson and his parents just got back from Canada so I'll head over and look after him while the parents sleep, and change the front pads on the Focus. I expected to do all the brakes in one stint, but when the (thankfully first one I tried) rear calliper took over 1 1/2 hours to get off, I ran out of time that day.
HapPea Tuesday! xXx

Nice one Mark and a nice colour too.
Be interested to see what mpg you get out of her as just back from New Year in Brittany and got 42.
On Boxing Day the Renault 4 returned 52 quite amazing as you have to give it all to get going ;)

I think I got this one for a steal considering the mileage and spec.

Very comfy as well.

Does it have the B&W system, Mark? Aside from its performance and comfort, the B&W system was one of the things which made my XF such a pleasure to cover long distances in.

Good Morning all.
Off to Spain so today is a day of cars, trains and planes and on to 12 hour days 8 til 8.
Should get rid of the Christmas excess.
Take care all.

Morning. Very bad night with some pretty explosive gastro-intestinal upset!

So working gingerly from home. Have a great one, all

Morning all. Office today.

Think I have to do something with my annual accounts sign off. Then find a pile of cash to pay the tax man. Whilst trying to get more business.

Sounds easy!
