It's brilliant to hear that everyone is gradually getting things right on the road to happiness Today I finally picked up my new vito (well new to me) from Swindon. I looked at this van at the end of November and decided to buy it, but when I went to insure it I was told it was not showing on the data base so they could not insure it. I had done my own checks and it came back as all OK. I was dealing with the guys brother in Swindon but talking to the owner in Thailand, who was visiting his sick girl friend. He was talking to the original Mercedes supplier and DVLA via his Blackberry, plus his brother and me on email. Very complicated I know but the van was such a good deal I had to stick with it to see what happened. It turned out that at some point after the original sale DVLA changed the model from a 111 CDI to a C200 which is a saloon car and that is why it did not show on the data base. Well it got sorted this week and I now have the van plus he knocked £500m off, I am well pleased. Now my reason for getting another van when I had a perfectly good one is down to the London emission zone regs. for January 2012. I think this will have to go on the "Random rant" thread.

XK I don't know where my "m" came from in £500m. It was either a slip of the finger or wishful thinking. Van was only £4000. That means the guy owes me £499,996,000, that would be a good deal!

Doing a wee little bit of magic.. feeling lushness bouncing right back... Today.. as we step into the year 2012.. let us remember that our experiences in the coming year will be based on our desire to evolve... Take some time today to DREAM about who you want to be.. FORGIVE the parts of yourself you've not been happy with.. and ALLOW a space for something new and wonderful to come into your experience! Collective change comes after individual change.. so open deeply.. dear ones.. and let the light pour in to make a new world for us all! You are All treasured WELCOME 2012!
