Mississippi Bullfrog Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Sometimes I love my job - it offers some challenges but also some interesting opportunities to do unexpected things. I've just been invited to judge the motor trade stands at a major national event. Sounds like a fun day out. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what the market price would be but I was thinking of putting in an offer of £2500-£3000 for it as it is.

Steve_M Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 The garden’s a bit wetter than usual. I’m wondering how much more water will be added by storm Franklin. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still haven't decided yet and they're not in a position to sell at the moment as they doing the house up and can't get it out of the garage just yet, just need to let them know in a couple of months time Also looking at getting a car soon but I want an ex motability wheelchair accessible one, having the ramp and winch if fitted would be ideal for me, and would allow me to shift my woodworking machinery between work and home really easily, roll on roll off Edited February 21, 2022 by dynax 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Fro Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 I went online last night to buy some more jeans and found that Levis have changed the colour of my favorite type. No only that but they seem to have Dwayne Dibley as their new model: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickly Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 Sun is shining, so off to Hoar park for brekkie & a look at what bikes turn up. Went last week and the bike got filthy as someone has nicked the bridge over the A45 and I ended up going down some single track roads. I’ve planned a better route for today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
