Just bought a '94 (M reg) white Mondeo diesel hatchback with 136k on the clock for £750 with 10 months MOT. Seems in reasonable shape; time will tell if it was a reasonable investment. Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] dylan for once again being the 'check-it-out' guy.

I got back to Bristol yesterday after being away from the house since before Christmas. It felt odd; in my mind I've already moved to Cheltenham. But coming back this morning it feels almost back to my normal (limbo) type state, which at least I'm comfortable with.

Going to be picking up a sofa bed kindly donated by a friend of a friend's mum and stored at [livejournal.com profile] kissycat1000's. Need to work out what bits I need and where they're going to come from. Worried a bit about money then rememebered my 2k overdraft. So I'll be able to get all my white goods and do/get urgent bits and pieces without major problems, which is nice :)

Now I just want it all to have happened rather than waiting for these last few formalities and bits and pieces to be sorted out. May well be going to [livejournal.com profile] florence90's party later on, as [livejournal.com profile] dylan and [livejournal.com profile] chocojon amongst others will be going :)

Right, I think I'm going to drive to the shops and get some food *grins*

I remember a time when [livejournal.com profile] azekeil (or should that be [livejournal.com profile] halfwit?) used to drive around with a large bomb in the back of a diesel Astra. It was not just a bomb in the traditional exploding sense but a rather worrying time bomb of HMC&E catching up with him...

*giggles*

Congrats on increasing the number of wheels in your arsenal, are you going to sell the bike or keep it for when the weather's not quite so bad?

Oh, I'll be keeping the bike for now. I think my insurance/tax/MOT run out in July so I'll see what my finances are like then. It may even be that [livejournal.com profile] ev1ldonut will be in a position to buy it at that time.

I'd prefer if you didn't refer to me as that, cheers :)

Oh sorry *hug hug hug hug*. I didn't mean it in a serious have a go kind of way, it was more a cheeky "I can't believe you used to carry that much red diesel around" kind of way.

Sorry dude :S

Hi, haven't spoken to you in ages! You sound all very on top of things which is great :) I just spent the last 24 hours with [livejournal.com profile] mashead so i'd been thinking about when i met you, as that was actually the last time i saw [livejournal.com profile] mashead as well! Hope to see u again before '04 is out...when is the move taking place?
