Have you thought about a mobility scooter?
My late mum didn't want one, but when she did, she was glad she did.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Friday will be my dads funeral, I was going to wear a black tie, but after speaking to my sister I'm wearing a Simpson's one with "Like father, like son" on it.
I wanted to wear the watch we bought for his 70th, but it was too big for me, I went to H.Samuel were we bought it and said we bought it here an I wanted to wear it at his funeral.
The woman removed links so it would fit, and waived the charge to adjust it.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
104 miles cycled in 3 days. Safe to say I am pooped now but cycling is now my fave exercise. This mornings 1st ride out was 26 miles in the pouring rain and my only regret was I wore my main gym trainers actually did not mind getting soaked so that at least means I can go out plenty over the coming months

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
I got a renewal quote from Admiral they quoted £976 with 30+ years no claims, upon spraying tea over my keyboard it was tweaked to to £776.
My 21 year old nephew pays £1,000
I went to Compare the Market and got it for £401.43, nearly half price.
HTF can they justify nearly £800.

Always best to shop around every 12 months, I do it online via the Topcashback site and then via Go Compare so get around £42 cash back as long as it tracks.

After a shocking 8lb loss this week and my 15 1/2 stone award I can now say I am literally less than half the man I was

Well done.
