Just come back from doing the school run!

Had to make 2 trips of course...but who's counting?!?

I'm sure I never used to drive this much just for the heck of it. And the g/f is so impressed with my new-found helpfulness that she's almost forgiven me for buying the car. Almost...

I wasn't sure whether to "Post Reply" or "Report Abuse"!!!

As Bobski's other half, it is true to say that since he put me on the TVR insurance last month, he has hardly seen the car...unlike me...who sees it rather a lot and loves driving around in it whever I can!!

Hardly seen a full tankof fuel, polished car, hoovered interior, oil checks . . but have seen a lot of Steve Heath's bible!!!

In short - power to the lady TVR drivers - I'm prepared to "go without" for short periods of time if it means we are spreading the gospel . . . now how's that quiche doing?

She didn't seem too unhappy on Sunday. As you blame me, have I been forgotten yet ?

Driving for any reason becomes a joy. I regularly find myself going the 2 miles to Tesco (as the seagull flies) and get back home having done 50+ miles.

Excited? Who wouldn't be. Sensible head head? Doesn't exist at least until it arrives. And then you want to drive it.
