I had never realised it was so easy to park a car!<br /><br />DJ – lol I know its bad how I am intimidated by it. Thanks – am planning to get at least 3 out next week. Managed no writing in the end as spent most of the weekend sorting out paperwork x<br /><br />Suzanne - I would love to swap but I have to give this one back at some point and then I shall be car less :( I am debating about seeing through the summer without a car, well I might not have the choice as I have no money for a new or even old car xx<br /><br />Karen – lol The Blue Beast I love it! Thanks, I am definitely going to sub there – just need to write something. At the moment all I can write is angry letters to insurance companies!<br /><br />Spiral – lol you make me laugh! I have just received word from the ins. Co. that as I agreed to pay the policy in full which runs out in July, and due to the fact I only pay in monthly instalments they will deduct the remainder of the policy fee from my claim money for the car. So in effect I am likely to owe them money. Such is life and I really hate Diamond!!!

It's been a dream. Mind you I think I might be starting to like the new one which is not good as I could never afford it nor would I pay that much for a car!Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10653762974885767334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-301379981318126431.post-74569427895466351502010-03-05T00:14:46.781-08:002010-03-05T00:14:46.781-08:00I know what you mean about your car.
