We started getting ours serviced at the same time as the MOT, and we also asked our mechanic to put anything right for the MOT before he did the test so we didn't get ripped off.

Best car I looked at was an silver mazda, Protege, the price was right at $2,000, but it was an 5 speed and she doesn' tknow how to shift gears on an car. It had the lowest mileage also at 165,000 miles. My grandson asked fo ran Lemon Tree, I bought him one today. It's got fie little lemons growing on it. for now, I'm laying down as my eyes are tired and want to "water". Rose Parade is over now...2 hours long...sure miss some things of the past. But some things they do these days aregood also. I said to sis...Well, they could of done better....they could of had an float with an couple on it going in an circle ballroom dancing, and "Dancing with the stars" on the side, and the top four couples this year with the three judges and host and hostess there in live person...standing ot the side waving to the crowds...Petra and James, Max and Meryl, Mark and his handicaped lady, and the gal played in the TV sitcom growing up and her partner....two on each side of the float looking out and waving. But they didn't..... maybe another year. I don' tthink we had an Grand marshal to the parade as in my younger years. It was about the only time Hollywood celebraties showed up. I go for now. |
