In my experience people who retire from a busy life that included commuting either sit in an armchair and wait to die or they remake their lives around what they have in the way of kids, hobbies, things they have always wanted to do but never got round to and within 6 months they are wondering how they ever found time to go to work.

Uncle Mort will, I predict, fall into the second category.

Precisely and exactly. I've heard of many tales such as the former option....werked all his life, and for what?..as they spread his ashes over the flower bed. ::)

We need to know anyway, as we 'ave his interests at 'eart like. cloud9:

Another 'Me Mi' could do for starters p'raps? cloud9:

 eeek:

Oh yes, indeed e do do. cloud9:

Might just gee you up a bit too after the intial enthusiasm you showed. ::)

Proper panel for £35.
Don't skimp on quality for the sake a few quid.

Except I don't need just one panel and it comes to undreds of squids... What is the difference...?

This one was a floor panel... given that inside will be covered with carpet and outside with underseal...?  Shrugs:

Well, I went to the Mini place yesterday - what a nightmare journey that was!  Banghead

Anyhoo... checked out the 'Heritage' panels and the cheaper versions thereof... decided to go for the more expensive...

They look more sturdier and also include a lot more detailing and brackets than the cheaper parts...

So, new floor, cross member, heel board, toe board, rear valence, A panels and fitch panels making their way to sunny Cyprus....  cloud9:
