Who went out this morning and remove theirs?

I think I will. Shame my windscreen will still be full with parking permits etc..

[ScottD3]

I'll take mine out on the weekend then I'll have a almost 100% clear windscreen.
Only got the camera and ferry tag in the screen.

I can't wait.


I do wonder what will happen to the once really expensive tax disc holders or the several thousand that the main dealers have.

Fit a Skoda ticket holder and remove them when you don't need them?
How many do you have?

[tonupkid]

Mines gone Just big patch of glue left and I'll get that off at the weekend

[ScottD3]

Today is the day that I have done something that I have never done in the 15 years of working.



I handed in a letter of resignation.
Its a odd feeling.

Hopefully greener pastures await

[ScottD3]

Only time will tell.

good luck!

[David's8]

Best of luck for the future and hope all goes well - have you a new job in mind or in the process of looking?

[ScottD3]

Got a new job.

I would not quit with out it.

Came close a couple of times thought.


Thanks lads.
Should be good, got a bit stale in this job.

[ScottD3]

Evening all.

How are you all doing?

Not sure you noticed but I've been rather quiet and a little bit absent of late.
That is the joys of the new job.
0730 start till 1700 Monday to Friday.
Plus in really busy.
2 man team trying to fire fight, fix, upgrade and sort out planed project work for a System that either of knows really.
I got the job under the impression it was 2nd line But it seems more of a supervisor/manager position with 2nd/3rd line work thrown in.
I'm a little bit out of my depth but I think I'm doing ok.

With the job being 15 minutes walk of up the road means I've not used my car really. Possibly once a week if I'm lucky.
It's also lucky cause I've been having issues.
Replaced the 4 upper front arms, snapped a pinch bolt so had go replace a upright. Went to get tracking done but the front track rod ends was seized, the rear track control arme seized.
The fronts are easy. The rears seem to be a bitch. I had to do them on a allroad and the A8 seems the same.
Another 4 sets of bushes ordered, £50 in bolts from Audi and now I need two new tyres as well.
All the necessary work is taking place but to make it all seem a bit more enjoyable, I'm trying to do the cheap off job as well, like the Aux heater.
it's all fun and part of the joys of owning a car I guess.
But at the moment, I'm tired and working getting on top of me. The last thing I need is the car letting me down or costing me extra expenses. O well.

Builder is booked as well to convert the dining room and kitchen on to one.

Once that's done I'll try and get permission for the rear access.
Ooohhh it's all go.

Gob I'm tired.

Night all.
