I will be calling them in the morning!

They'll probably want to see a valid parking ticket and I written letter describing chapter and verse on why you parked your car so close to council property, didn't you know that all trees fall down some time!!

crazy

I've a feeling the council will be shitting themselves. There were survays done on all the tress in the area; they took down a whole load around a small sailing lake down the road last year "in case they fall down and kill someone". They had a lucky escape today me thinks....

Not your car I see for towing your boat, no tow bar (unless a fancy removable one with the slot hidden underneath). So can still go sailing this weekend.

Scooby, with the demise of the Scooby we can no longer call you " Scooby Simon ", mind you it would make a great cabrolet version. Best of luck with the Insurance Co.

Maybe.

Thinking about a Mini Cooper S next as cannot affort another silly Subaru. However, I will also be looking at Aston's in a couple of years time....

Talking to wifee over lunch about what to get next....

Wifee "well we need something a bit cheaper to run at the moment"
SS "I suppose so"
Wifee "But when job market improves we could look for something a bit more fun"
SS.. "umm"
SS "Fancy a V8 Vantage"
Wifee "If I like it, don't see why not"
