Shame but best of luck Chrissy.

Got this given as a gift yesterday. Not quite as impressive as your collection @loweman2 but I'm chuffed with it all the same. 

Thank you for the kind words again everyone it truly means a lot to me and the mrs! An update on the rollercoaster  of emotions is as my messages last week there was fluid under the babies skin which shouldn't have been there so we had to go to grottingham on Thursday  for a CVS,  the experts had a scan before the test and I quote "we don't really know why you were sent here as at the minute everything seems to be fine, the down syndrome risk came back as 1 in 1668 which is good so they've told us to assume everything is normal and we need to go.back at the  beginning of January for another scan to see what's what. To say I was a mess this last week was an understatement (so much so I was odd work sick) but this news was amazing and means at least until next month we can carry on as normal and enjoy christmas. ?

Looks pretty similar to mine - an old style graphite grey 3.2 DSG Quattro. I should have got rid years back but it's a lovely bit of kit and a lot of fun on the rare occasions it can be given a bit of a blast.
Bought a 2.0 litre A3 Sport which was meant to be a more practical replacement it but ended up keeping the Quattro instead! Environmental concerns mean that it'll be the last car of it's kind I buy unfortunately. Looking at whatever Tesla is around at time of next purchase as a likely next car as they don't seem so stupidly expensive these days and the reviews seem quite positive.
Edit - I'll pop a pic up tomoz if I remember. Quite a pretty car.

@Paul71 the best thing I ever did when I came off my meds was kick the alcohol habit
I was very similar to where your at at the moment. My daughters teacher made a flippant comment to me about using a phone, my head blew it out of proportion and tried to drink myself to death. After quiting the booze, I found it went hand in hand with the aniexty/depressive states. 
Been off both for 6 months, never felt better. Wasn't a massive drinker but it made a huge difference for me
Hope this helps.

Can we have last nights referee officiate our games?
She was excellent. 

The Beast, 6.0L V8 SS

I've got an 18 plate a3, my sister has an 09 a3
Both very much vw golf's in a frock and a few extra toys 
Nice though. I've done 40k so far in mine since November and it's giving me 60 odd to the gallon, and dead comfy. 

This is my toy
Picked it up cheap and in the middle of a big rebuild on it! 

Unpopular opinion: I would like nothing more than see Frank get his first piece of silverware at the expense of Liverpool! 
G'warn Frank, Jody, Mason & Fik!! 

Yeah I get that - I'm no fan of Chelsea either but for me, my respect for Lampard & Morris overrides that so hope Chelsea do well whilst they're at the club. Appreciate not everyone will have that view though ?
There's also a broader context insofar as a) a young English manager finally being given a chance at a top 4 club (first time since 1995 apparently - Ray Harford was the last one!) and b) likelihood that Lampard will have to field a number of talented young players in light of their transfer ban. If all goes well, it could be good for English football as a whole

Getting one of these as a company car in October to replace the a3. Is it thirsty? 

Currently got a BMW M140i...it's very nice and very fast but I think I'm rapidly reaching the age where something with more pliant suspension might be better for my knackered old back.

So long as it's a blue rise ?
Underrated, 225hp 4 wheel drive. Girly as hell but as a balding 30 year old it's acceptable, right ?
