    I do like getting the all clear from the doctor further to a cancer scare.  Still got lots of problems in my life but at least now I've (hopefully) got a lot of time to deal with them.

  • I do like finally finishing a model kit I first started 5 and a half years ago.  It's a very special model that i was supposed to finish by the time the aircraft took her final flights across the UK

Here's something you might like to try Laurie, toddy-wise

When I lived in Tuscany, the toddy they made for cold was a measure of mandarina (mandarin orange liqueur ), a measure of schnapps, and a measure of grappa (local grape spirit, use vodka in lieu) which they passed steam through from the expresso machine, for a few seconds - it works wonders on a cold :)

Sounds good :d might have to give that a try :d (after I've used up the Johnny walker of course ;) )

Despite the possibility of her barking at the animal night life, a post midnight stroll with the dog was quite pleasant. :)

It was just me and her and way off in the distance, owls were summoning each other with her-wits and herwit terwoos :)

That captures the sound of owls, somewhat more concisely the phonetics

I do like it when the breaker accepted my combined offer for the Mk2.5 Focus Centre Titanium console, the oval radio fascia, a carbon fibre gargage door and carbon fibre lower dash switches without me having negotiate further upwards :)

Owl maths? :P

It's a right hoot to do!!

Well go on... Make me feel ill with the bargain you got... How much?

£115 inc delivery

They were was on his website with a combined total of £175

Oh ok, I don't feel so bad now... It's a bargain, but was out of my price range when I was looking :lol:

I was only looking for centre console initially, but it made sense to get the other bits, as they were off the same car, and I was planning to upgrade them all in future anyway. He had the mirrors, but they're not the puddle folding type - I thought all Mk2.5 Titaniums had those

I do like getting all the Dec's down from the loft, rather a few of them (1 big ikea bag and two big boxes), might have to give some of them away I think? My sons got first dibs on the soft bear and Santa's tree decs box as he was bought up with that lot

Hmm I thought so too, maybe titanium x?

Definitely makes sense to get all the bits, I was buying mine in piece meal from different people as and when I could afford to. Stuck with the standard silver though, saved me getting the stereo fascia.

Yes, it must be Titanium X

Debating about getting the seats, dogs and leather seats don't work too well.

That's was a significant reason for abandoning the BMW 740; every corner or hard braking, she'd find herself and her duvet, in the footwell or slammed against the door card :(

While we out and about, in Oakdale, I saw MK2.5 Focus, on a 08 plate in quite a distinctive colour, it's hard to describe it properly, it wasn't so much a plum : but wasn't a reddy brown either; a bit like the lovechild of polished mahogany and a Victoria plum :lol: I'm guessing the owner had it resprayed, I don't think that's a Ford colour; but I might be wrong

Wasn't morello cherry was it? I'm trying to get a pic but my phones not playing ball

Edit there we go, this colour; https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=morello+cherry+ford&client=ms-android-samsung&biw=412&bih=347&prmd=ismvn&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiMt4vb2dvJAhVGRBQKHRTbA8sQ_AUIBigB#imgrc=jZMFRw9uec3_dM%3A

Yes, morello cherry would describe it better than I have :lol:

Yes, that's it :)

So it is a ford colour. after all

We'll it was a ford colour, like many of their prettier colours, they don't do it anymore :(

I do like this batch of spotted Richard pudding, I'm having tonight :)

Although tonight's custard could have been thicker; more of a pouring sauce: than a coating one.

The dog appears to like her bowl of egg white with an extra egg in it. :)

I do like that my Mk2.5 Focus centre console and accompanying bits have turned up earlier than expected. :) The breaker sent it TNT overnight express not his stated 3-day service.

There must be a breakers yard dog, or the former owner of the Focus it came from, had a dog. Brandy is sniffing it profusely and barking at it :D As if she thinks there's a strange fellow dog in the box :D

I do like perusing the comments on Vauxhall's Facebook page! :lol:
