Spadge - im a bit miffed atyou decision to get a job and work for someone else when you have a perfectly good business at home - or are you not making as much money as your were ?

Also, being at home I thought you would hvae time to look after Elliott and carry on with breaking cars too.

Correct me if wrong, but if you are bored I can fully understand it.

Hi Ran
I stopped doing the Cossie parts some time ago, to make money, as it is just not profitable enough these days now all and sundry are breaking them! I still do a bit here and there on Ebay but only for pin money.
I liked doing that and am totally happy getting my hands dirty but finding cars cheap enough to warrant the hassle has become almost imposible.

Spadge - i hear ya mate. Have you thought about switching over from doing just cossies to other cars? My mate is making a killing on breaking E30 BMWs on fleabay

Also, what about valeting/mopping/polishing cars as that can prove profitable if done right

Lambchop if it really pissed you off so bad, I'll point out that the person in question (jamesy) PM'd me about my post and I replied with an apology. It was a joke, maybe you didn't read it that way, maybe jamesy didn't read it that way, but it was.

Still waiting for an explanation as to why i am a wuss
I'm guessing this is some sort of childish retaliation from when i told you you were out of order for saying you were glad George Best had died

I think Ian has a point tbh

What about a celebrity lookalike?

Spadgeroo, I worked shifts when my girl was a little un - was cool being there when others are at work, missing lots of cool moments. If that makes me/you a wuss, then fairplay, I'm a wuss

Spadge, I know that if I had the chance I would do landscape gardening and that sort of stuff. A bit creative and on a lazy day you just mow lawns listening to the radio

Spadge if its Boredom more than money, then how about learning a trade in the building game? Do some course down your way for a bit....gets you out of house, then do it for a living. Can be self employed if thats your boat too I personally prefer having a boss...saves me doing any more hours than i need...he finds all my work, get ALL the agro off clients etc etc ..i just turn up and earn
