Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
I just called the (future) mother in law in SA.
I think she was pleasently surprised to hear from me.
I have set up international faverouites to call SA and speak to Natalies family and Natalie when she's there. £10 for 3,000 mins is great.
Getting brownie points from the mother in law = priceless

Its a good sign and pardon me if this hasn't already been said, but first impressions do count.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

Noooo - it's a Peugeot 308 cc - it's my little cruiser 
'Top Gear' review said they'd rather cut their fingers off with rusty spoons than have one  , but I like it. (and it IS red )

Thank you both and Hugh.
Have almost flattened the battery playing with the features under the cover of darkness. I might even drive it tomorrow
