What Have I Done ? It's All Nobs Fault !

Bought a dream, that's what. Hope it doesn't turn into a nightmare !

Let the Heartache begin, as Long John Baldry said.......

EDIT. Better say that with this I have joined the V6 club.

And I have corrected my spelling ! ( Missed it first time Kev, maybe I am recovering from the shock ? )

Both Kev, and I'm counting ears as one entry !

Oh. I forget to mention that Aaron was more than ably assisted in the blame game by yourself and Mark.

Then there was me of course............

That's true, I hope it's not necessary to send the heavy mob in.

I'm promised a 'phone call just after nine..............

Speak soon Tess, this insurance could be a bit of a rigamarole, 'phone line is hot.

Also just found out that I have had a refund on the GPS Speedo I ordered " Can't supply. "

It's all going to be a bit of a haul I think.....

Well the insurance box is now ticked. Very reasonable deal through CK. Progress ! Now will have to hunt for GPS Speedo in case I have trouble getting the one fitted working...............

I'm still nervous about it but strangely happy, perhaps as well I can't see into the future.... Already started spending money, bought a Magnetic Tax Disc holder whilst I was filling up at TESCO. Yes Kev, I did make it back, took just over 70 Litres.

Does anyone know if any of the satnavs have an option to select " Speed " as the main display ?




Have you seen the Lincolnshire Lounge ? Don't stay off the radar, come on in and have a look !

Next Event - Evening Meet In The South Of The Area.
Look Here ! Details TBA Soon.

Old radar men never die - their echoes just fade away in accordance with the inverse fourth power law.

I was relieved to get there, especially after the snarl up through Boston.

Talk about the speed thing tonight.
