Looking forward to mission progression!

I was looking forward to having a go in the Mazda, I organized transport through Shiply for Friday. Transporter messaged during the day to say he was running late which wasn't much of a problem but then later changed it to his truck had broken down and wanted to rearrange for next week.

I was a little bit annoyed and initially accepted the quote because he was doing it this weekend.

The doctor contacted me wanting to buy it outright so I cancelled the transport but Shiply kept my deposit and added it as credit to go towards my next transport transaction which means I'll have to use their poxy service again.

I hope the Mazda serves you well.

Ahhh so I was wrong and my mix-up makes me look like a right twit, great start to AS! 😄😆

Enjoy the rarity factor!

Eventually. 🤣

Note to anyone who may need to know - 70mph in the back of a convertible BMW is cold, windy and scary 😂 Appreciated the lift from the station though. 

 

Falling asleep on the way back wasn't an issue either, as a spider dropping onto my face in the dark partway through the journey woke me up, and kept me vigilant and on edge the rest of the journey. Think I killed it, but no idea where it went! 

Car is brilliant though, over the moon with it. 

Looking forward to warmer weather when I'll attack the sills/arches with the grinder, welder and paint. 

Then get the pink paint on order? 😜 

Seriously though, a cracking car and deserves some TLC. 

[yes oui si]

Spiders are the reason for the F in TPFT insurance.

Also the reason my Mum nearly caused an accident in Ayr in her Nova when she threw the brakes on and leapt out the car on Belmont Rd. 🤣
