    oh ,the stupid car ! it was a wiring harness that ignited somehow . but miracuously put itself out ! (it didnt ruin the whole car thank goodness)
    luckily coz , we rent a workshop in brisbane and its on the same block as the owners house (who are away up north) and it caught on fire on the drivers side which was closest to the house , made of wood of course .... soooo lucky we think brissie had rain over night which is why the fire went out . otherwise thier home and our workshop along with 2 BMW's and a Mercedes would have been burnt to the ground

    seeing as we only paid for it on monday , and it caught fire monday night , no its not insured lol ! But its a work car and was an investment for the business so im guessing it will be covered under the business insurance , somehow , but seeing as DH is a mechanic he can fix it himself for less than the excess ... maybe to repaint might be a bit exxy
    we are just glad it happened when it did , as you cant really detect a fault like that and it could have caught fire while all of us were in the car and been ALOT worse ...

    Nappy expo - jump on the ANN site and check for up coming events its in october and the expo will be on the southside somewhere or forrest lake area . its all the local MCN makers getting togeter to promote cloth ! and of course you can buy !!! i will keep you posted

    lol Lea soccer mum

    We get the same critch between the knees but she has high hips so the angle of the wings when the flap is folded over is wrong. Seeing as she's on her tum most of the time now it was rubbing.
    I still luffs them though

    Just had to have a laugh... we traded DF's nissan ute on a cruiser 4x4 wagon, and i was driving around in an SS. Once we got the cruiser I pinched that and DF now has the SS, i love it. He reckons I'm the only female in the world who would choose a cruiser over a sports car. Obviously not!
