Well I understand Howard is having his done this weekend- I have to have mine done also...as the rattle has started again!
I can hardly wait to have an Ex that I can hammer and not be worried about the chains giving out!
My baby will be fixed and well.....no more old age problems- shame about me tho!

Lol
