I thinmk mine is 'Polar White' also Ginns but they didn't call it that when they painted mine ;-) :-D

I think that probably makes it a 'Classic Car' Jonesey ??? ;-) :-D

When I had to buy a new battery for it last year I thought the battery was probably worth more than the car but perhaps if I keep it for much longer the car might come to be worth more than the battery :-D :-D

Evenin' all!

Glad your little car made it through Dea....I remember how pleased you were last year! :-D


Ours is due for it's annual service in March.....it's an 8? year old Toyota Yaris. Got a feeling it won't last as well as Dea's has.


Picked up grandson from school today and we went to McD's where I had something to eat too. I was cooking lamb for OH and son so, as I am not a lamb lover, I thought I would have chicken nuggety things!!!! :-D


Thing is, I am due to see my health trainer tomorrow!! hahahahahaa.....she will love me.....not :-(


Having been so busy this afternoon, I am now going for a browse........~~~

Yes Cynths - I think after all these years you start to think that your luck must change - poor little car MUST come to an end eventually BUT it keeps going and SO well !!

I do hope that you will do well with your health trainer tomorrow - I will keep my fingers crossed <3 Although, after all those fig rolls AND the McD's today, I think that I must try to cross my toes as well ;-) :-D :-D

I have just been listening to part two of a radio series from 1934 !!! - Secret Agent X-9.

I have to say that, although it wasn't brilliant, it was far more entertaining than many of the things which are on radio and TV nowadays.

That is a sad reflection of our times :-(

Gee Report 29 Jan 2014 14:05

Yes Mr Jones, indeed

They also phoned me a couple of months ago to ask if my 'service' alert had shown in the car............nope

They'll be telling me it needs washing next!

How much notice does JB take..............

He's on his ipad, I go into the kitchen, cooking and I start sneezing (about 18 times)

Sneezing all the way up stairs and come back down, with the snuffled nose, as you do

'You sound blocked up babes'.........he says

'Did you not hear me sneezing'

No!

Not ANOTHER cold Ginns !!!!! - You are seriously lacking in vitamins my friend !

Gee Report 29 Jan 2014 18:36

No Dea, it's not a cold.

I have allergies

Dea Report 29 Jan 2014 18:56

I'm baffled.............

Just watched a programme which mentioned the importance of potatoes in the diet of Irish people.

Didn't quite catch everything but we are talking here about probably the 1830's 1840's, before the Potato blight struck.

Apparently the potato was the main source of food and people at that time were each consuming around 14lbs of potatoes per day !!! :-S

How on earth can someone eat 14lbs of potatoes per day ????? :-0 - they must have been HUGE !!! :-S

AND, if you take into account that many of those 'persons' were children, the adults must have been eating even more !!!

Hi Gins, and everyone

we got back very late on Monday evening .................. after a long journey, that included missing our plane connection in Toronto. Fortunately, that was the fault of the airline and the airport combined (don't ask!), so they were responsible for re-scheduling us on the next flight.

Yesterday, we were all at sixes and sevenses ..................... but I think we're "normal" again.

Daughter is recovering nicely .................. she had abdominal surgery, and they are working on their marital problems that they hadn't told us about before :-(


We'll still worry, but I think things are going to work out.
