    The low cost may be due ,in part to the fact that the van is a 2008 with less than 14000 miles on it. I'm over 70 and the van is a handy capped vehicle. Over 70,,, egad ,,, the end of this month I'll be 75 :(:eek:o_O...

    Did you see what they have lined up for the Game Awards next month, including the possible Game of the Year?

    A freaking solitaire game is among the potential winners. Yeah. That's actually one of their nominees for to claim the top spot in 2024. No word of lie, folks.

    And they wonder why gaming is going downhill. :p

    Gee, almost as if a federal road tax system combined with a federal road maintenance system would be beneficial ;)

    Tried the clean install option? Sometimes Windows gets funky for no reason but to annoy its user.

    OHH nice Fred a Lexus!

    I have just changed well in March 2024 to the new Lexus LBX, decided I needed confort over having my back broken in sports cars as in my Abarth 595 (great car but not so great on UK roads).
    Actually this colour and model https://media.lexus.co.uk/the-all-new-lexus-lbx/#lg=1&slide=0

    Yes. It worked for almost two weeks, and has now pulled another infinite boot loop stunt. I'm sticking with 10 until I absolutely have no choice.

    I love the color of that Lexus! Mine is a bit more ahh, mature than yours. ;) But I got a pretty good deal on it, and it is paid for. Since it turned cold, the lifts on the rear door and hood have gotten weak. I replaced the ones on the rear gate yesterday, the one for the hood is on the way.

    I must say, the heated seats have spoiled me.

    I had to help my sister carry heavy bags back to her house this evening.

    Workmen in my property did something and now only my kitchen sockets are working. I need to sock it to them. ;)

    Hey Fred, heated seats spoiled me as last car I had them on was 10yrs ago, now heated seats and stearing wheel (latter I love as I get really cold hands in winter) the best bit is the Lexus+ app and that I can be having breakfast and turn the cars heating and defrosting on so ready for me when I'm ready, a plus of hybrid EV.

    I really have to get something done about the mice in my flat. They leave their waste everywhere. I pulled the cooker back and noticed loads of droppings. They can climb up the back to get at things on the bunkers. And they squeak under the floorboards.

    I also hear them at night. Paying me a visit, are you, Jerry? :)

    I am jealous! My hands get cold easily too! Luckily the heater gets warm faster than all my previous cars. But a heated steering wheel would be sweet!

    That's so fancy! My car is so old it's like the next year after they stopped putting ashtrays into them.

    Well, I guess it isn't my car. But it's used to cart my princess ass around.
