Looks like the url function does not like brackets in the url itself.
My previous link should look like a link now.

A Smart car is an amazing vehicle. Yes I did use to slate them but after driving one I was converted. Maynot be fast (top speed 85-90) but she is quick and loads of fun! Could you see me in a diesel Corsa?... :shock:

With one ozone hole puncher (TVR) the Smart compensates! :-D Out the two, the Tiv goes.

And yes, I do use my cars, that is what they are there for. Over the past 5 plus years Blipi has been great fun to drive. Cleaning her started to become boring and time consuming. The flies added to her driving machine image. Gary needs to get out there more, endure the elements and use the Elan for it's best merits!

New job will help reduce mileage a bit and I hope will lead me into the start of a better year than 2007!

Hello everyone

Thank you soooo much for Lukes gorgeous present, it really is very special and extremely kind of you all. I think Carl thinks the Lotus bear is for him as he was so excited about it!! Have told him he has to learn to share and the bear is now in its rightful place, in Lukes crib!!

We finally brought Luke home on Wednesday after 6 weeks and 1 day of being in hospital. Cant put into words how happy we are to have him home where he belongs.

Luke is doing really well and weighs 4lb 14oz. The house is like an oven as its hard for him to keep his temperature up due to being so tiny so Carl and I are having to wear our swimsuits to keep cool!

We have lots of dirty nappies to keep us busy and coping quite well with the lack of sleep......so far!

We hope you all had a lovely Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Thank you again for your kindness. Cant wait for you all to meet our little man.

Love and thanks :smt039

Carl, Raina and Little Luke

I was in St Neots this morning as Tash had a footie game there. Carl popped over for a while and showed me some pics of Luke.

Jeez he's cute :D






Oh, and for the record, the Stortford girls one 2-1 with Tash scoring the winner 8)
