Camera maybe?

+1 mine's not far off it's worst at the moment.  Not enough to shift me off the couch today though.  When the sun came out, for a nanosecond I thought about washing it before deciding, nah.

Just realised I have owned my car now for 12 months, the happiest I've ever had, but now its MOT time, and tyre time!  :sad:

But i have decided I need to use it more! 6000 miles in 12 months is just not good enough with the smile factor it gives! :whistle:

Hoovered out lots of glass.  Jeez it gets everywhere. My seats looked like they had glitter on them with all the really fine pieces.

Also cleaned off all of the aluminium oxide from the finger print guy so interior is looking tidy again albeit with a big cubby hole in the dash at the moment.

Glass being fitted tomorrow then back to some form of normality  :smiley:
