No, you're not wrong on the Banana car.
Cylinder head in Surrey, front left shock on it's way to northampton exhaust in the dinning room, sundry bits all over garage floor.
Still, the CRX is running well enough to embarrass some expensive motors.
Haa Haa.
I'm not sure that a wireless cam will be the best idea because of your dizzy. Lots of radio waves from that. Who had the bumper cam last Easter? Maybe they might know a solution.

I think Andy still takes the Silver Bullet out for the odd spin - just to piss of unsuspecting Porsche drivers!
Six weeks and six days til departure, Andy!

We've got plenty of time yet, Richard!
That said, I really don't fancy snow and ice at Easter, or rain for that matter.
Having some problems with a visa for the missus (being South African) that I'm praying we'll get sorted out in the very near future...

hope you get it sorted.. I hate those type of paperchases..
where's the issue.. for UK or continental europe?
maybe you just need to advance the wedding and then ask frank if he can upgrade you to the honeymoon suite..

Without boring everyone rigid with the stupid bureaucracy, she needs a visa to visit the EU. This cannot be issued without sight of a passport which is valid for at least 3 months. Unfortunately, her SA passport is being renewed at the moment as it expires in one month.
So she can't send her new one as it hasn't arrived yet, and she can't send her old one as its not valid for long enough. To further complicate matters, her old passport contains her UK visa in it, which will need transferring to her new passport - when it arrives. AAAAAAAAAAARGH.
All being well, her new passport will arrive soon, we can courier both passports to the French Consulate in London, where they will take three weeks to shrug their shoulders and generally be gallic pains in the arse.
Bloody cheese eating surrender monkeys.
Bet you wished you hadn't asked now? hehehe
I think the honeymoon suite is THomas's room - only the bride has to sleep elsewhere in the hotel!

well hope it works out OK.. though Thomas might be disappointed..
due to these sort of issues.. I ended up holding 2 valid passports at the same time.. because as you said... the embassy you are applying to can hold onto you passport for a while.. and then you can't even travel within Europe (or even back to UK).. because you have no ID to show..
