so at 800pm he gave up and said i well have to a lorry to pick you up it well take about a hour and it was all but two minutes

Its always fun when you have an interesting trip to buy something..... The other week we took a trip to Tain about 80 miles away for Kirsty to look at new shotgun... on the way there I was told "We must had a discussion about what you consider to be close!".... Well we got there and she duly parted with the cash and got the new gun... shes not stopped smiling yet.....
