No, I think you need to re-evaluate your life a bit Alex.

We can always make excuses _not_ to do something. You got bugger-all
to lose by making life changes (erm, if you'll excuse the pun!), and
you've suffered at the hands of that bus company long enough matey.

It's a kin big world out there - happiness is only one small (well,
about the size of a Range Rover in reality...) decision away

Mm. Strangely, Martyn, you have hit the nail so squarely on the head
it's uncanny. I'm not gonna say any more, as i don't wish to discuss
my personal life on a public forum.

Should you be seriously interested in returning to the fold, I may have
found another 101, belonging to someone who doesn't know what it is
worth and is looking to get rid.

I'm also told that Staffs search and rescue are also thinking of
selling their 101 ambi (message from the dad of a friend of a friend),
if you fancied a working ambi (its done in white with the reflective
stripes and stuff!)

Heh, if i wanted an ambi, i wouldn't have sold the one i had.
Unfortunatly the ambi was just too damn big, heavy and thirsty. A GS
is what i'd like, preferably LPG or Diesel, but i really cant afford
either the vehicle or the fuel consumption. (Although I think even a
3.5 v8 would be an improvement on the current 15mpg from my 2.25)
