I'm going to say Good Night too, thanks to you all, you have made my night. Never been in a forum, found it really entertaining and addictive. Sweet dreams you all. Speak again soon, if not, sooner! :zzz:

Polly - under your name it says you come from Manchester... a few of us are from Mancs/Lancs area and we met up at Reebok stadium in Bolton last weekend. We are due to meet up again at beginning of August. If you are still on here, or still in the country, you are very welcome to join us. :)

Thanks for the invite, really nice of you, I'm leaving in a few weeks and won't be here for the next meet. Plus I'm shy (seriously) don't know if I could do it even it I was still here? Would take me a while to build up the courage? Hope you understand, not being funny:o

I live in Manchester, if you like I could come round and show you which buttons to press.

Do you really? I assumed you were in Spain.. More importantly.. what team do you support?

I agree completely with onlineamiga's post and just a further note if you are a nervous driver in general then I would strongly suggest you do not take your RHD car to Spain if that's what you were thinking of doing?

The reason being if you're sitting in your RHD car it's VERY easy to not concentrate for a brief second and just automatically drive on the wrong side, take the wrong lane when taking a corner, go around a roundabout in the wrong direction or not giving way to traffic from the left.

If you're in a LHD car it's all new to you so you don't do maneuvers off the cuff so to speak. Hope you see where I'm coming from.
