...has a very large bill.

Rather like me.

Took the Disco in for its 72,000 mile service, which is quite a big one.  And it needed a new rad.  And a new viscous fan assembly.  Neither of which are particularly cheap.  So an expensive day, all in all...

Tomorrow I should get the 101 back with power steering fitted and several other bits done - dread to think how much that'll be!
