4.0 GTS? 

...or 340D?

After initially contemplating going electric, I would have been quite happy to get a Born but decided against it for ‘other reasons’. That would have also been noticeably a slower car (which would be okay) but a decided upon something equally as fast (and thirsty) as my current steed. It’s from the same overall owners as your first guess. 👍

After 20 looooong days in hospital, culminating in my 3rd open heart surgery (and now a change of username 😛 ) I’m going home today 🤩

 Nice one.  Don't overdo the booze though.

 

My second (first was Tit_Man's news) moment of joy today was reviving a stone dead Miele dishwasher with a 50p ceramic capacitor.

Thanks Wino. No booze for me, the the fresh air, sunshine on my faces and to be with familiar faces, not inside of any walls

Nice - if only!

You read my earlier post with dirty glasses though as my choice of words wasn't intended to suggest such a beast.

going for our normal family walk/hike up in the trees, but today....

 

bringing our jordanian neighbours with us was a bonus sparkle. 

they've been living here just about 3 yrs, 2 of them across the cul de sac from us. with pandemic etc we havnt hung out as much as we would have if we were in "the before times". so missus said they should come with us, as they were looking to go for more "outdoors" walks. so they packed up their 2 kids and we had our 2, and headed out to our usual spot. 

they loved it! especially as we venture off the haul roads and tracks properly into the trees and scrub. the silence, the views, walking around on deer trails and having our snacks sitting on a wind blown tree trunk, it was a whole new experience for them, even if it is a mainly commercial sitka spruce grown to cut down again planted forest, they had a great time

After nearly three weeks and many lengthy calls (on mobile) Sky/Openreach have finally fixed our landline.

Aye, mostly for phoning relatives who can't work their mobiles.

We don't, well, not to call out, but as @AnnoyingPentium suggests, the mother-in-law has "issues" with technology... 

 

The worst bit was Sky assuring that the swap from BT line rental was pain free...

I am old. 

 

But why does the current Mrs Cakemonster keep telling me to grow up???

[Titanium_Man]

Had my INR test result, which were all good. So, given I’ve two days until the next check, why not treat myself

Reckon that's going to taste good!

An apple a day keeps anyone away if you throw it hard enough...

They're fruit, and in this case the glass holds about 5 of them, so that's your 5 portions a day in one handy glass.
