Always treat your friends well, that's what I say. Plus I am a sucker for
things like that. I've been known to buy something I don't want to get
something free that I could have bought for less if I'd just gone and bought
it, IYSWIM.

Some of us had loads to do but didn't. When it comes to loafing, you're
a lightweight.

not just a cold morning but a cold day. I spent another day working on
the wiring on the 101 and had to keep making cups of tea to warm my
hands up!
Hopefully i should have everything except rear lights after an hour
or two more work tomorrow morning

spend threshold for the model itself to be free. ;-)

Agreed. I was self-employed for a couple of years, but couldn't tread this
line well enough. I *was* joking.
