So, i've got the parents visiting for the weekend. is it wrong to suggest a trip out to Harrogate in the knowledge i could also pop into minispares at the same time ?

I may count them up if I ever sell the car. Must ensure it remains hidden from him indoors for the time being though

Is it a bit suspect to receive a second chance offer on an e-bay item when there were 3 other people (all Id's private) who bid higher than you ?

All, the other bidders ID's are private so I can't see what else they have bid on. Suspiciously you can't see the details of any item the seller has either sold or bought, it's all private. Very odd. I think i'll walk away from this one.

think I might walk as well, with the other bids gone my current bid is £1 short of my max, so it looks like its been bid up until they worked out my max then pulled back. or am I being paranoid?

I never accept a second chance offer as you know the seller has asked their mates to bump the price up for them. Sometimes I send them a message with my original offer and if they don't accept I walk away... metaphorically

I also notice how other drivers attitudes differ towards me when i'm driving my mini as opposed to my euro box. People treat me really badly in the mini - more cutting up etc, etc. I wonder if it's becuase they think they'll get 'stuck' behind me or inconvenienced somehow because i'm in an older car.

Because they really want to be Mini owners too but too chicken to try it out!

Thinking of writing to Mars Inc about the obvious flaws in the Skittles advert where everything the guy touches turns to Skittles.

Why is it so difficult to find a garage that you can trust to do work on your mini ? :-(

Sussex Road and Race in Littlehampton are probably the most renowned in the south.

Left the mini in the underground, heated cctv controlled car park at work last night. She won't be happy when I go to pick her up and leave her on the cold windy drive again.

is it just me wondering why you need a heated car park?

So your car doesn't get cold?

It's a car park for the company directors. Maybe they don't want to get cold when walking to their cars :-)

I love the fact that it was always a couple from somewhere like Kidderminster who won the speedboat.

Aww, really wish my mini was road worthy now. Instead i'm here waiting for the wind to die down so I can put the gazebo up to do some welding and spraying.
