    I know how you feel Tom.

    Today I took my car to the MOT garage, and I was told it would be ready in half an hour.

    As I assume the worst case scenario in things of this nature, I was kind of ready to take the car to the local Rover specialist (customer of mine...)..

    Well, it passed the MOT with flying colours.

    The relief was immense.

    Tom,
    I am very sorry to burst your bubble....

    From Thursday 25th to Sunday 29th I was in Dublin, plying my trade..... Which is selling wine to the unsuspecting public....

    Well, 3/4 of the people I approached at the RDS claimed to be tee-totalers or non drinkers...
    Unless,of course, they were lying to me...

    Despite this, my colleagues and myself, managed to surpass last years turnover by a huge margin.

    What I want to say, really, is that the stereotype hard drinking Irishman is a thing of the past.

    Yup, the end of the world is nigh.....

    damn, you have just blown my cover dom! ... and u aren't having spaghetti and pizza for dinner at night whilst listening to pavarotti? hehehehe

    i'm just messing!

    i hoped u liked dublin mate

    and as for the MOT thing, i think it's actually cheaper to put the car thru the MOT and get a list of things it has failed on ... than taking it to get serviced! lol
    works out cheaper! hehehe!!

    anyway!
    peace

    Due to the nature of my job, high yearly mileage, etc.
    It is no point for me to even consider purchasing a new car, the depreciation in value would be enourmous.

    Not even the company car allowance could cover what I would lose.
    And having a company car would open the flood gates for extra taxes + expenses for eventual repairs when it is time to return it.

    So I will stick to buying low mileage, one previous owner vehicles.
