Re: [doc] Unleaded-woo hoo! a new member of my fleet!

One of our fitters was involved in that crunch, im assuming it was 
the same one as yours and a rather nasty one like you say, so im glad 
everythings is ok with you.

Sorry i couldnt make the Fort Paull thing, but it ended up being a 
lovely spring day for you!

It is a really nice morning again here, so much infact that #2001 
brought me into work today ( so that means it will probably start 
snowing later :))

Looking forward to seeing your new car, so which one is getting in 
the garage then :) ?

Regards
