and chatted to many more mainly TLO
I put some thought into the post though ..... and thanks guy's
I have 4 kids and bought what transpired to be a clocked D3.... .... so your help has given me peace of mind when .....
In the last 12 months .... my fourth child arrived and first son after 3 wonderful girls...
Partner given all clear after pre cancerous cells were found .... I had my hole patched up in my heart following a stroke at 47 in February .....
So I've bought and sold .... modded and panicked ... helped and been helped ...donated and supported .....
I even replaced the clocked old girl..... with a forum D3 D3 Bevs 2004 HSE on here from the outset ....
Thanks again its been fun .... and invaluable in so many ways
I've enjoyed every minute .... including the comments from SWMBO ....

Good effort with a 1000 posts in just over 6 months. Makes my humble contribution look a little pedestrian!
You have had one hell of a year so all the best with the next.
