Good Evening Gents, it was a truly lovely day in Barrow and Askam today. Steve i am impressed by the amount of jobs Mrs W44nty has found for you to do, she is clearly related in some way to my very own Sophie

Does anyone know the best price for new radiator and condenser radiator ?

Cheers Fellas
That's not good at all!

I'd be seething myself,
Might be worth giving Mat a shout and see if he has them and at what price

Steve and Georgie

Together Forever

Lonely days are long
Twilight sings a song
All the happiness that used to be

Soon my eyes will close
Soon I'll find repose
And in dreams, you're always near to me

I'll see you in my dreams
And then I'll hold you in my dreams

To make the day even better, my motor insurance renewal was through the letterbox when we got home. Been on the 'phone to LV= and negotiated a package deal
  1. Full comp car insurance, protected no claims bonus, windscreen cover etc. etc.
  2. Breakdown cover - including the caravan - at home on the drive and anywhere in the UK, PLUS recovery to one address of my choosing - e.g. if I break down in darkest Cornwall - they will tow me and the 'van HOME
£234.84 for the lot, which I'm more than happy with

Happy New MOT Rod
