The 101 has gone to a new residence in Peterborough. Hopefully Simon
will give it a bit more attention than I have been able to.

Another chapter closes. Off to raise a glass... or two...

Currnetly living in Sheffield - in good company though, with Grumble
and Bungle keeping an eye on him...

I'm sure this will eventually happen - if/when Peterborough is the new
home (I've hidden the chainsaw...)

>Off to raise a glass... or two...

We were all a little ahead of you there!

I doubt that, unless you stopped at the off-licence on the way home...

I hope the teething troubles haven't dented the grin on Simon's face.
It does seem to be something of a habit for that truck to kick sand in
a new owner's face. And it does like your house - perhaps it just
likes the company.

I'm well on the way to spending the money as well!

It's a right of passage really. 101s like to test the metal of their
new owner

You'll need to do something clever with the gearlever. Although Dawn
might put it to some use if she sees the receipt!

Did you get it home then?
