    Ezee Sprint, cheap for spares

    You have to have new lights and such as well because it's the old model and the new kit is different. They don't make the old type anymore. I'm going off what John has told me and, pragmatically; MK is too far for me to take it in for servicing now. We used to live in Leicester which was dead...

    Ezee Sprint, cheap for spares

    ezee Sprint. New battery last summer, new charger in Jan 2014 much loved and always kept in the garage when not used which was only ever on sunny days - so very little at all.

    Oil Price Drop

    We've recently moved to an off gas grid area so have oil fired central heating. Neighbours say this is about the cheapest heating oil has been for a long time. Downside of course is that jobs might go in the oil industry especially in the more expensive-to-extract areas such as Scotland.

    Man imprisoned for two years for not declaring ebay income

    Jigsaw Puzzle Happiness - Andy Williams

    Years since we did a jigsaw. We had a cracker on the go on a coffee table. Almost finished. My sister came round with her youngest who promptly pulled the puzzle off the table. We've not done one since.

    With charity shop-bought jigsaws do you never get one with the last few pieces missing?
