Well, leading on from my last post the scan turned out not to be a scan but a consultation..so we got ourselves a little mixed up and disappointed.
We won't be having another scan now (unless something goes wrong) and we have like 6/7 weeks to go, Fliss also starts her maternity leave soon.
On another note you have to laugh at car manufacturers for either their inept short sightedness or the longterm greed.
After having some warranty work done to the car to replace some rather shabby looking door handles and some faulty switchgear i noticed a couple of days later a bolt on the floor in the foot well of the rear N/S seat and that when cornering, the drivers seat was flexing and moving.
On closer inspection i noticed that the bolt was from the seat frame so i popped into MGR to get a new bolt fitted as the old one had a shagged thread.
After a few minutes the 'fitter' came out to tell me that he had searched the microfiche and the bolt was not listed as a separate part but as a part of the whole frame....in other words, they would have to replace the whole bloody lot.
Now, i'm not to bothered as it's being done under warrenty..again..but what if the warranty had expired, it may surprise some of you out there to know that Ford charge about £100/150 for a seat frame for the shitty Fiesta, i bet you could at least double that for an MG ZT-T.

Well i got lazy and stopped posting, so i thought i would make a post....
I have a nice little sideline going on which with any luck and a bit of work i might be able to turn it into a bussiness..so fingers crossed, might not happen over night but it might happen...
A big thanks to Chris and Lee for coming up to see me, it was nice and we had a good time..the house was a little cramped as we had some other friends up as well and i was 'trying' to decorate the nursery but it worked out fine in the end.
We are scheduled for another (final) scan on Tuesday..where i will probably get yet more scan photo's and put them up..it's quite scary how fast this pregnancy seems to have gone, only 2 months to go..
