Not been around much....

[CocoPops]

Hey all,

I'm still here :)
Not much happening in the CocoPops house, but there will be in 8-10weeks time......

When the twins arrive
I was speaking with Steve (Phil Mc) the other day and he was singing the virtues of Passat estates!  So looks like I may be back into a VeeDub at some point.

Certainly couldn't afford to run the Ed30 once the twins arrive, it's expensive enough buying all the bits for them before they arrive!!
Last count, £3500 on pushchairs, car seats, nursery furniture and all the other "needed" bits that we've bought in readiness!

At least I'm into the "making money" expenses on the current runabout, a Focus Diesel... deadly dull but does the job.
I've still got the 2.0 MX-5 for trackdays and fun... when I get the time. I intend to keep the MX as long as I can hold onto it, so I have somewhere to escape to if needed.
Other stuff to occupy my "spare time" is the Karting, we're doing OK in the Club100 rookies Enduro Championship, I think my team mate posted a link here not so long ago? http://www.MangoRacing.co.uk is us! :)

Hope all the regulars are doing ok!

Take care,

Lee.

Welcome back, Lee - Glad you're still getting some motorsport pleasure 

You really don't have to spend so much money on kiddies gear - Secondhand stuff is often hardly used and there's plenty of choice. Having children really doesn't need to be as expensive as many folks make it.

Btw, I went to see the guys near Reading who painted your helmet - They'll be doing mine when I get it.

Lovely to hear from you Lee and all the best with the impending arrival - may they bring you years of joy. Going to be an action packed Christmas / New Year at your house this year

Good to see you back Lee.

I think one of these would do
