Post by StanO'Toole »

I just got my insurance today (ended up with Axa in the end and paid 3,200 thrid party) so my bank account is now empty :roll: But it will be worth it! I also recieved my licence today! Came home and walked in the door from the freezing cold weather and found this,

I thought it was preety dam good! Now all I need is Stud back but at least I'm one step closer!
