I think you're a bit younger than me, and really i'd rather you postponed that inevitability. Once the medics sort out your present difficulty, you could be set for a great many more years.

Sorry George I'd only just picked up on your medical problem, trust you can get the all clear, I can appreciate the frustration of being laid to one side - even if it is with a busted wrist.

Shame, you could always go out and drive slowly around to join a queue of stationary traffic on the M5 so you dont feel left out, and arrive after all the chip shops have closed at which point it will tip down with rain. 2 17 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
