Louisa 69 , I dont much milage these days. I takes the train to work ...so the car sit on the drive most of the week.
Ever watched a new car devalue ? I do 13,000 miles per year. When I had a second home (Cottage in Cornwall) , I was doing 40,000 miles per year ...work also involved the car. However in those days my job paid all my fuel costs ...now that was a perk :-)
At the antiques fair ..I picked a nice Keith Murray vase ...straw coloured bomb vase ...not bad price ...also a job lot of old lady bird books ...12 of them ...got them for �15 ...Will be able to sell one of them on e-bay for �12 ...so shouls show a profit ..dont collect books ..will keep the Keith Murray vase however
