Well dreamed of owning one ever since I was a boy. Bought it on a junkjard and had it (professionally) restored 5 years ago. The last of the real Saab's if you ask me. Only the English police don't like Dutch number plates and cars.

Thanks DE, am floating around at the moment. Need to reach the ground. Hubby changed his flight and should be back tomorrow, so hopefully, he will pull me back into reality and make me feel better.

Glass of water will do. Cheers. Glad you pulled yourself together. My computer just crashed when sending that message, maybe a sign for me to get of the thing. Never written so much on here in a day and even managed to keep things short.

BTW, cheers for calling me AUNT. Aunty would have been sweeter. I don't have any brothers/sisters/cousins nor do my parents, so my only extended family is my husbands and he is number 19 out of 19 kids. :scared:
