As some of you are aware i have been toying with the idea of going blue (Trader)

I buy and sell stuff and i go to scrap yards alot and pick up things for friends but i have started to do alot more over the last week and therefore i feel i have to support the club by going blue as i am now making money from this,,,,,, am also going to sell Watches and sort out a eBay shop:getmecoat:,

Last year things happened with me and the forum,,,,,,,,, am not going into it but i wanted to say how sorry i am for this if anyone of you was affected by this i know i could of handled this better and am sorry,

Now me,

Am Andy from Manchester and up until march 2013 i had a dream job in France as a fishing lake manager i loved this job i took my 2 cars at the time over there a rover 75 cdti and a ZT typhoon 190, In march 2013 i was taking my mum home from France back to Manchester when only 1 hour into the trip and just after a toll we was T Boned by a lorry on my mums side this crushed my mum and very nearly killed her (some of you have seen the pics) i messed up my shoulder up but nothing like my mum she had to be pulled out of the car (Jeep) and she was rushed to caen hospital to have emergency brain surgery to remove a blood clot on her brain,

She spent 6 weeks in a coma and woke up thinking it was 1969:shrug: I made a decision there and then that i would give up my dream and come bk home to look after her ALL I CAN SAY IS GET INSURED WHEN YOU GO ON HOLIDAY IT COST 88K From the crash to being airlifted home 6 weeks later,,,,,,,,,,,,, well its been 6mths since and my mum is OK she is still learning to walk again and is trying to do day to day things but we have carers coming in 3 times a day my mum still cant do any paperwork/bills and sometimes we have to treat her like a 10 year old with watching her and looking after her also we have to sell her house of 35years and get her a bungalow,

I can say i have had a crazy year but one thing that has kept me going is this forum:bowdown: am on here most days and into the night because i look after my mum as she cant do things for herself shopping/washing/cooking/house work,


As you can tell i have alot of time on my hands but i have to stay near my home unless my sisters come down:getmecoat: so i have been looking into keeping me busy i have 5/10 good scrap yards near me and am allowed to walk in and go around a car which alot of yards don't let you do nowadays,,,, they have rovers and ZTs coming in all the time,

Am not going to try and bust my balls to do this but if i get anything or you need anything for the car let me know ill sort it out for you,

The things am getting,

Small car parts ie

Undertrays :getmecoat:
Lights
Dash
any little bits and bobs you need,

50 x Genuine Hella Warning Triangles Made Exclusively for MG Rover Part SAC880662 (Rimmer bros) £10 to your door

Watches,

Hublot
Breitling
U-boat

Ill sort out all pics asap and prices

Am also in talks with a dyeing company for are steering wheels as no trader seems to do this but am unsure yet looking a 10£ a pot to your door:D


Please if you have nothing good to say then don't i really don't need it am just trying to keep busy and maybe get you a good deal,:bowdown::bowdown:

Thanks Guys and Gals

As an additional note, it is a welcome change to see someone putting their hand in their pocket and giving back to the club when they are using it to make a few quid.

Hi Andy, Just read your post, my heart goes out to you. I am in

a similar situation with Rosebud, and I have an idea what you are

going through. We are more or less housebound hence I spend a

great deal of time scrolling the Forums. Good luck with your new

venture I am sure you will make a success of it. Hope and pray

your mum's health improves as time goes by.

God bless you both.

As you know, ever the same.

Roy & Rosebud. (Old Man and frail Old Lady).

Take good care of each other,

Wish you all the best with your new venture. Will certainly get in touch when I need something.

As regards "Mothercare", I feel for you. Mine is 96, arthritic and registered blind, so I know how hard it can be, but wouldn't have it any other way! We thought of selling the house (60 years in the family), but got a stairlift instead of the bungalow!

Good luck!

Its something we have been thinking of but my mum has to have 2 ops on her shoulder next and she has a shower in the bath type bathroom etc etc,

The house is just far to big for her ;)
