Yup, I think you have to remove the front on the car to change the bulbs on my 16 plate Mondeo.

Get Ahead of Being Dead: Your Handy Planner for the End of Life - Evie King

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/180419378X

It's like Viz Top Tips, but for before you discorporate...

Quote:
'With a prose style that holds your hand and offers inappropriate jokes when you need them, Evie King makes an excellent case for sorting your life out by sorting your death out first. A serious, funny, necessary book for those of us still this side of the daisies.' - ALAN MOORE

Re: What have you just bought?

When you're nearly 70, and recently had to sort out the aftermath of an aged relative's passing, you might think differently...

We don't want our kids (in their 30s now, but still our "kids") to have to go through what we did.

And, which is the main reason I bought that book, is she does it in a humorous way...
