Did have - but then I played with them and lost one or two - or was it 3 or 4 - after that it just got to many and more......

Hey I fixed my adobe problem - can read pdf files without the pc crashing -

Can I borrow it when you don't need it.

I booked the car in for an MOT and service on Monday then realised that the MOT was due tomorrow (Saturday) so had to book it in separately.

Had to then ring first place to cancel the MOT but keep the service, but got through to sales and had to say "I don't want Sales I want the other place", the word service had completely slipped my mind.

In my defence I have a chest infection, which I think has also addled my brain.

I'm afraid Vick's busy at the moment.

Back to the MOT problem, Mary.

If you have BOOKED your MOT, you can drive legally until that date.

Why faff about changing appointments. ?


back to the original thread.........

We have missed Tuesdays copy of the 'Learn Spanish', due to various reasons, not mentioning a certain hostlery or two in Horsham !

If ANYONE has it, could they copy the disc for me.

The Daily Snail aren't being particularly helpful.

Ta !

if a vehicle is registered with no prior use on the road, the MOT will be required three years after the date of registration. For example, a vehicle registered "from new" on 25 April 2000 will require its MOT no later than 25 April 2003

From the .gov website

I wouldn't mind but it is husband's car.

I usually get the Mail (balanced with the Indy), but didn't get it on Tuesday I'm afraid.

Don't spill Jude - everyone has access here, even those who have not registered. If you want help on this one, PM someone you feel you can trust having asked them first if it is OK.
