What a tough time you are having! All the very best wishes to you and your family. I went through this with my father. He was having treatment at Canterbury, they are a very good and caring team there. Keep posting when you get time, I'm sure the VW family on here will still want to see your gleaming car.

Thanks Peter.  Hope your father is well now. :smiley:

He's got private medical cover so treatment for chemo is at the Chaucer but doing the radiotherapy at Canterbury Hospital (no private machines in Kent yet) so good to hear your father received good care there :cool:

I'll still be around on here.   My car is far from gleaming at the moment  :embarrassed:

My other half is just about to start weeks of radiotherapy and chemo - tough time ahead  :cry: 
Just had to cancel our summer holiday too, but not important in the great scheme of things.

The VW Driver mag article was a welcome distraction for a day.  Hope I haven't bummed everyone out.


Good luck Rebecca with the weeks ahead. Positive thoughts sent your way for you and your other half.
Car looks fantastic by the way.

car looks fantastic! Wish mine came up with that shine :embarrassed:. Have the same color and the slightest rain kills the shine, (muddy rain water usually)

All the best with your other half, really puts things into perspective!

Thanks very much Chris :smiley:  It definately puts things into perspective but it's good to have an interest to turn to when things get a bit much.   

I was chuffed to get the car featured in the mag, it's really nice to see it in print, makes all that effort worthwhile. 

How's your motor?  Still enjoying it and done anything to it lately, except clean the pita sandy rain off it, which, as you say, is a killer on black car?
