I'm guessing you're quite tall, so it's always going to be tricky. And larger SUVs will be £££ :(

:D Yeah I see that one quite a lot. He doesn't have a wife though, and isn't likely to, unless she was really dirty. He does however now have a girlfriend - Mrs. P has told me that if they're still together at Christmas I have to start calling her by her real name, and stop referring to her as 'Pramface'.

not so tall(about 5'10" tops now as ive lost 2 inches; maybe more due to joints compressing. biggest issue is neck doesnt bend so much now due to the spondylitis....that alas is getting worse as is left hip.
costs are a major issue with motability at moment, and there are few biggish suvs on it what are there are several grand extra

pramface....i like!!:D

Anita's Motability is different to yours - she gets an amount paid in each month, and is free to buy whatever she chooses, new or secondhand. It's paid for our Volvo S60. But she does probably lose out in other ways (servicing, road tax etc).But it can bring higher-spec motors into our budget than if we had to get new.

yeah i could do that but need a lot of cash down.. as you say at least motability is 'all in'..all i do is pay the leccie bill, which isnt too much as i dont do a lot of miles. cheaper than petrol still although not by as much. i kinda need all the latest aids tho to help me now. its a big boon. also the heating up of car in winter before going out is great

have had the fitters in all morning striping out my old bathroom before a new system is installed. they are ripping out the old wet floor, which was made of wood with a non slip covering. so far most of floor is out as is basin.. the guy has only fell through the ceiling of kitchen once so its all pos :doh:

On a Bank Holiday? usually hard enough to get a tradesman in on a normal week day. Few holes in the kitchen ceiling small price to pay for that level of service I'd have thought.

Although just occurred to me it might not be a Bank Holiday in Scotland...

no, it is a bank holiday here. i was surprised too. next monday is too. they will patch it up. hoping new bathroom will be dogs bollocks:eyebrows:
