Good morning Sylvia!

I need that lovely breakfast to cheer me up now - I have just been reading the posts and Ginny says she is 'leaving us' !!! :-(

I am sure she won't as she would miss us too much !!! ;-)

I DO understand her reasoning though, I have hardly had a good search to 'get my teeth into' for months and months! - The boards have changed so much and they are not nearly so busy :-( :-(

Gracie - DO take care of yourself, you are doing too much too soon ! - Now that the wedding and the party are over you really must take it slowly and rest or you will not be able to enjoy Christmas with your little girl!

See you all later,

Dea Xxx

It went to a new owner...I would imagine she got something for it, there are a lot of wierd collectors of these things :-D

I went out in it once frightened the life out of me as it did'nt have seat belts, and it smelled like an old car. She has lived in her house about 19 years (not the sort of area I would choose) and I am sure she had it when she moved there. Now she just has to get rid of her big motorbike which also has not worked for years thats probably classic now, it was'nt new when she bought it about 13 years ago

did she manage to sell it?

jax Report 5 Dec 2011 01:16

Ten years ago it looked quite nice as she had spent a few bob on a respray and I think it worked briefly.

HID said there are new rules about keeping old cars off the road...so maybe that is why? I know she does'nt have to pay for tax because of its age but she would need insurance and a mot before getting it.

Or maybe she just had enough as there was no way she was ever going to do anything with it now, as she spends all her free time with her horse

I still have to watch it, over 8 weeks later.


I keep telling OH that I won't know what I can't do unless I try it ................... and then have to minimise the discomfort! :-D

Thanks Sylvia,

Gracie was very good at the wedding, she was a bit grumpy and hungry and tored as it was a very long day - she had to be at the bride's at 2 to get ready, and then the poor thing didn't get to eat or drink again until about 5.30 (she had been up since 7.30) but on teh whole she was pretty goodd and she looked very nice (if I do say so!).

Am waiting for a nice picture of her to change my profile pic on the other site and here.

Yes you are right I have been doing to much. Started back at work today and was ok but am a bit sore I just can't get comfortable. Getting irritated with myself!

Hi Grace

Hi all,

Hope everyone is well.

Sorry have not been on for awhile, haven't been feeling the best, and we had a wedding on Friday, a Christmas party on Saturday and visitors on Sunday..pretty full on,

Not to worry, back on deck today :-)

Poor you, LK!


I won't be able to join you




...... but could you mention that you have several contacts on GR who are unable to attend the event, including people from overseas, long-time members, and they are very dissatisfied with the current state of affairs..????

I too keep hoping it will improve.


Maybe we should wait to see if Phil's changes really mean anything.


He did say "may take a couple of weeks". :-)



and, as Cyn says, most of us are here on Fred every day.



Plus ....... it will be more expensive to renew if you let your current membership lapse.



Having said all that ................ I know exactly where you are coming from, as I find myself more and more frustrated, and, yes, bored with the current incarnation of GR and the lack of activity.

If you enjoy our company Gins..........you'd stay!

Most of us are on Fred everyday y'know. It goes a bit quiet now and again but that's because we're busy. We always come home though don't we??






I'm hoping it picks up too LK. I'm ever the optimist...... :-D



:-D



Off to bed now..........see you in the morning............~~~~~~~~~ I hope
