I like the look of the roll top Marco, last time I shared a bath was at "Sutherland house" Southwold:



lovely hotel

[Marco]

Cheers, mate. That looks a nice place - right up our street

Del and I often share a bath (if she doesn't want pampered alone), as she's only little, and the bath is pretty big. I can stretch out fully in it, and I'm 6ft 2.

Shower or bath, chez-moi - you choose...






Marco.

I see you put the bog seat down. Good lad

Personally I think it's bloody inconsiderate that women never think to leave the seat up after they've been, but what can you do

[Pigmy Pony]

Lol...

Well, at the moment it goes to the supermarket and/or butchers, and church (which is 3 miles away) and back! But of course, if it rains, or has been raining, the game's a bogey, as it'll be full of splash marks, and black *really* shows it up!

Even just leaving it outside, after having washed and dried it, and it's rained overnight, then dried again, the 'sandy' rain stains are obvious and do my nut in... The car's got to be in 'showroom condition', inside and out, before I'm happy!

Plus, as I've said, if it's in any way dirty inside, the resident princess here won't get in it, lol!!

Marco.

Well I have to admit the Brabster always looks minty-mint in pictures you post

Why don't you garage it when not in use? And buy one of those car shaped dust covers too? They're really cheap you know. And I thought you had a second car, a runabout. Use that for church and shopping. All you need then is to keep the princess-throne clean. Save a ton of work. Oh and a quick spray of Febreze for your seat, as I'm told those Aldi adult nappies can be a bit unreliable...

Yeah, I heard you returned yours after disappointing results with absorbency, but especially after that incident with the Velcro tabs giving way in the middle of the bog roll isle in Asda, simply due to the weight of a full 'morning load'... I told you before, and Anita will back me up, you should always have a dump (and a proper clear out) after your breakfast, before venturing outside, so I hope you've learned your lesson!

Lol@ 'princess throne' - she'll LOVE that, and very apt!!

All good suggestions in theory...

However, the garage is currently full of all sorts of crap, so there's no room for the Brabster, and in any case, the plan is to turn it into a dedicated dining room, so we've got more room for entertaining (read as Del having more of her pals round to 'play with'), and also possibly to double as a small restaurant, which may be a plan for when she retires (that is if she f still feels like working), but she does love cooking and likes the idea.

Instead, in terms of the car, we're going to have a large car port built (with a proper tiled roof), which will house both of our cars. Yes, Del's got a little runaround, but it rarely gets used now the college she works in is in Wrexham and within walking distance (used to be 12 miles away), and she prefers the exercise, or if she feels lazy on the way back, she calls and says she wants picked up.

She going to sell her little runaround (A-Class Merc), as she WANTS a red Jeep, like Melinda from the Ghost Whisperer (her absolute FAV programme, see here: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0460644/), Melinda shown in pic below:





It's quite girly, so I could defo see her in one of those - and there's certainly plenty of room to store all the carrier bags after I've taken her shopping! So once things return to some semblance of normal, I'll take her to look at some.

As for using Del's runaround to do the 'errands', thus keeping the Brabster clean, yeah sure, but that rather defeats the point of having the latter - as I *LOVE* driving it, plus being the type of car it is, it needs driven and USED, otherwise engine-wise it suffers.

So, no, once the car port has been built, the Brabster (or whatever eventually replaces it) will stay much cleaner for longer, but until then it's simply a case of washing it and keeping it clean, and which I actually rather enjoy!

[struth]

scratch that mate.. the dozies have put the steering wheel on wrong side

[Marco]

Lol... We'll get it shifted for her

I could see her in one of those though, could you, all dressed up nice and meeting her pals for a coffee?

And she was told though, in no uncertain terms that she wasn't going to get a pink one!!! Luckily red is also one of her fav colours!

she'd be better in a c-hr but if she has set her heart on one i thought about one but their reviews kinda put me off. after saying that the c-hr gets poor reviews too but i'd say 90% of what they complain about is bull. I never read a review on one before i bought it as it wasnt on radar at all. just happened to sit in one and found the position good; plus it looked a lot better in flesh

[Marco]

Lol - I know what you mean about reviews, and treat them with the same scepticism. Most of them are heavily biased towards various factors. Thing is, the Jeep won't be used that much, just something for her to have some fun in.

I like the Honda, but it's not Del's thing (too butch looking, her words), or for that matter, what 'Melinda' drives!

I always fancied a Jeep, and drove one for a few weeks on holiday in the States. I have always liked how the looked even but would never buy one, not a patch on my Q5.
