| Cheers guys I'm very glad I'm starting to enjoy her too! I was very worried that I wouldn't be able to get to grips with her once I got her on the road and that I'd end up selling her cos I daren't take her anywhere. But hopefully I've over that now - if she keeps on driving like she did today, then I don't think I'll have a problem  Altho I have to get her out of the habit of tearing my trousers! Every time I get into her, I she manages to rip the seat of my trousers!  There's something spikey in the seat, and she's managed to ruin 3 pairs!  Time to stick some gaffa tape over it methinks! Can't go around with my pants on show all the time!  _________________  |

| Dave did the brackety things. I've not taken her over a speed bump (there aren't any in a 5 mile radius lol) yet, but she hasn't scraped on anything other than the bit of metal in the middle of the garage door for the lock to lock into. Might take her to the next Wurrzel Dubbers meet if the weather is ok. Don't want to take her too far, still building my confidence, and Taunton is the next step  _________________  |
