JB asked... We haven't bought anywhere yet since it's been a royal pain in the arse getting a builder to resolve 3 years of rented neglect on our current place. We need to get that sorted before ours can go on the market. We reckon Corsham's a bit too expensive, though it is very pleasant and convenient. We took a bit of a liking to Calne but it's a bit further out than we had planned to look. However, it seems that it could be quite a pleasant A and B road commute once I get my bike out of storage. I suspect we'll rent for a while before making the final decision.
<RobbieWirral offered a Mondeo for sale> That actually sounds fairly interesting but I'm guessing by the name that you're near Liverpool and getting there could be quite challenging at the mo'. I should probably have said within striking distance of Wiltshire, Bedfordshire or Glasgow. Cheers anyway.
NOOOOOOO!!! I moved from there to Melksham. Bloody rough is Calne, and I should know, I lived there for 10yrs. Looks nice during the day, but it's like fucking Beirut come the evenings/weekends even in the winter. Good move. Pick up a few local papers when you're next down. It will give you a good feel for the place. JB

<Tallbloke selling a car> I can't see your email address on google groups, can you drop me a line with a bit of info about MOT, etc? The address in the headers is valid.
Actually I am genuinely vaguely interested for a friend in need who needs to sell the new one to reduce outgoings. Feel free to send some pics and detail history to <hog at freenet dot co dot uk> She isn't mechanically minded, needs it every day for work/school etc which is why I was concerned. Being a girly it needs to look clean and fresh. I'm in Belfast and she is Glasgow but there are enough UKRM's in your vicinity who can look it over if needs be. 'Hog
I never really watched the A-team. But, having just read http://www.ateamshrine.co.uk/face.php, I think I can accept the position.
