I certainly hope so Ruskie.  BTW, I never did get a Mercedes.  Instead I bought my favorite vehicle ever, a 1956 short-bed F-100 Ford pickup.

This ain't mine, but paint it robin's egg blue and that is about what it looked like when I finished working on it and sold it 5 years ago.

And thanks inveryes for the offer... ever go to Old Kiltarlity grave yard?

Looks very nice indeed Nick (I have a very soft spot for old vehicles) ..... but, you sold it!  :'(


[Must get back on topic before I get into trouble.]

I hope inveryes manages to find something exciting for you in the grave yard (burial ground). ;)

Haven't been yet (no relations buried there) but I'd be happy to have a look for you, if it ever stops raining.
