Condolences from me, too.
In just a few weeks the tenth year after my mom's departure is over.
But being gone doesn't mean being forgotten.

Sincere condolences Dan,
The loss of a parent is something that takes a long time to get used to,
I say that because I don't think you get over it, just used to it,
Nigel

Looking at you take 4 Elms roundabout at full chat this week, that red rocket was planted squarely on the road. Yes, I was waiting to join the traffic to get home from Medway industrial Estate. Dogs and Daughters faces plastered against the side glass was funny though. Something like this…….  |

Time to sell the Jag Dan, and buy a pickup truck. I'd place my bet on the benz. He just likes to play the selling-regretting-buying-new-one game. |

Funny enough I took my dad out for some lunch today When we came back to the car a young German fella was looking all around the car and asked if it was for sale……..absolutely no chance that Mercedes will be going nowhere! Have a look for V6 models , not many left and in Red more or less extinct Happy with that one as said I’ll add another ford to the collection in the next few months when I find the right car |
