What about personal lease, popular over here3rdforum wrote:We're selling Eileens car. It got its first wash in 2 years. There were hand prints burNed into it and a good bit of fading down the centre of the bonnet. I got out the t-cut but couldn't shift any of it. Brought the car to a valet place run by Lithuanian or Polish guys. They were open yesterday even though paddy 's day is a holiday here. I drove by their place a few times . I reckon they easily spent 5 hours on it. Got it back today. The finish is showroom quality for 100 Euro. Very happy with things

I remember when you said that before Reg. Looked into it but repayments didn't justify it. Also, I have a paranoia about owing money so we don't get anything unless we can afford it. The only loan we have is the mortgage and we only have 4 years left on that.

Well you seem to get through cars like there going out of fashion, so i presume you blow money left right and centre, so blow it on a new car that costs nothing to run, just saying like

Re: What are you doing today??
We have had Eileen's car for 5 years. I had the van before this new one for 4 years. We don't have the cost of a new one, well, we do, but money is going into the savings for the kids college. thats going to set us back @ 100k over the next 6/7 years. PLUS, on new motors we pay vat AND VRT. I'm fecked if I'm giving this government any more than absolutely necessaryMcqueen wrote:Well you seem to get through cars like there going out of fashion, so i presume you blow money left right and centre, so blow it on a new car that costs nothing to run, just saying like

Went for a wee spring walk up Maspie Den in Falkland today, but we weren't really dressed footwear wise for it so didn't manage to get right round and up to the waterfalls. Will defo go back though as it's a lovely wee walk, just a bit too muddy today...some photos:

Re: What are you doing today??
Went in and collected part of that leather suite I got my hands on last month. Eoghan and myself reckoned that we could manhandle a 150cm couch into the boot of my van which had 140cm opening. The Christian Church prayer meeting had just finished and they all came out while we were trying to stuff the couch in. 5 minutes later, 4 of them were helping/directing and 10 minutes later we all decided it wouldn't fit so we just stuck the two armchairs in the back and fecked off

What I'm not doing today is going to work! Up all night last night with heartburn then hit hard with diarrhoea. At least 7 times up during the night, it was un-controllable.
