Another long day
« on: 20 August 2007, 21:44:25 »

I don't know why but i like buying cars from far away places  :-/ Had a six hour coach journey today to pick up another project ::) but it was well worth it. The drive home more than made up for it, now have a 99 Elite added to the fleet  8-)

The Elite is a splendid drive - neither the mrs nor I could believe how comfortable the seats were in the one i just bought.  satnav a bit mickey mouse though, but Bose sounded good on a quick blast.

Bose is excellent, especially in a saloon, Sat Nav........ :-X, but to be fair it is an old system

At least you are not physically working, busmans holiday :y...I am off to work in a mo, and won't potentially finish until around 9o'clock tonight (all going well). Have a consultation meeting with residents, and as long as they don't ask too many questions maybe 8.30 finish, and the same tomorrow night, had 2 last week one finished at 9.45p.m. the other 8.45pm >:(
