Sad day

Today I had to say goodbye to an old friend ... yes, my old Volvo had to go to the scrapyard. After blowing the head gasket, given all the other niggly things as well as it's age, repair was uneconomical.

I now have a "proper" car - '51 plate, shiny, lots of electronic wizardry ... but I am heartbroken.

Done it!

I've finally submitted my tax return! And waddya know - they owe me £106!

Won't buy me a new (for "new" read "another second-hand") car though! Mine's terminal :-(
