French cars aarghh, doing a favour for a mate. Can you fit me a new starter motor he says, sure I said pop round Saturday morning should only take an hour. Three hours later the new starter is on and guess what ? It's faulty. Back on with the old one . That's five hours of my day wasted. Man I was fuming. Anyway showered and clean now watching F1 . Consoling myself with pizza and beer !!

    Sadly,sometimes you have to make a big decision like this as life just gets in the way.

    Just read club rules, it' illegal for Miss TMF to drop out during her term in office.

    I agree. It's like the Dogs Trust make sure your home is a good one before letting you have a dog. No different for Minis! :-D

    What about sorting some storage for the mini and then get a "better daily". You'll regret selling the mini so might aswell save yourself the heart ache ha!

    Now that would be ideal, we are looking at having a garage built onto the house but until then unless I pay for storage she's got no home. It will be terrible selling her but am ready to have a "new" car for a bit - been driving 3 years and only drove a mini... then when money's right I can get a mini that can do up as & when I pleaase

    MattMiniS96. Zelda is not the person you play as. The question was a trick one. You play as Link

Went back to my car in the public car park earlier and there was a new Jag parked next to me. I went round to the driver's side to have a peer inside at the dash. Bit dark so I cupped my hands round my face. Was looking for maybe 10 seconds and then realised there was an old woman sat in the back. Didn't half make me jump.
