Re: Hey all.
Cars are always a love hate relationship, on my good days I can't wait to get a bit more done but on my bad days I can't understand why I brought myself so much work- I just can't wait to get it done and out on the road! .RobFrost wrote:Poor health sucks. I hope the cars help.

If it gives you a reason to get up and get moving that's got to be a good thing.
