well it seems to have clocked 40+K miles since I sold it more than 6 years ago so my marathon 3 engines 2 cars 1 weekend shuffle seemed to have paid off

I would love the no. plate but TBH the car is a shed which is why I offloaded it 6 years ago, I got £550 for it then and believe I had done well, E77 UKO will not see the road again I'm certain, it is only in the next village and I have always had to do a double take when I saw it as to me E77 is and always will be my car, bit like that first girlfriend thing! no I don't need that car in my life again never, odly though I just got engaged to my first girlfriend after 31 years apart, her bodywork though is still in excellent condition and I know just how to get her motor right into the red line and hold it there dab of oppo andget the back end where i want it!!!!!

thanks Kate you know after losing Barbara to cancer I was set for the single life and comfortable with that, I had been extremely lucky to have a great relationship for 18 years, but meeting Denise totally by chance in a place i didn't want to be and had tried very hard no to go, I am totally blown away, we never really went out (unbelievably I was too shy to ask, and she was way out of my lowly league anyway!) but did meet in '81 when I was but a wee boy, we were friends and did all the '80's clubbing motorbiking and general silliness together, i was out with Dee on her 21st (took her out for her 47th this year!) she was at my wedding, she was the first visitor to this and my previous home, yes we have history but now we have a future too. A £10K diamond sealed the deal, one happy boy here!!!
The happy couple

I am so delighted for you. Cancer is a terrible thing and for you to have two shots at true love is magical.

I wish you both every happiness.
