Car MOT and Service today so bang goes £200 or so.

Count your blessings geumgrower. I have given up driving due to heart problems, so I take my life in my hands every time I accept a lift from my elderly friends.

Only really need it now for Hospital appointments as the hospitals are at least 20 miles away.

He was only 61 and as far as we know he had no previous heart problems. He had ridden his motorbike to Mablethorpe for a day out. Daughter is 51 and the grandsons 21 and 19. We are incredibly upset as he was a wonderful, artistic, creative person.
