Thanks for the birthday wishes everyone and I'm sorry I'm a few days late but I've had quite a bit on.

We lost both of our cars and my valeting van in a huge fire 2 weeks ago. I've been extremely stressed as you can imagine thankfully no one was hurt and the fire didn't reach our house.

Glad everyone's OK. :]

Thanks people. No electric cars involved.

The police and fire reckon vandalism but after what was left of the vehicles I'll never know.

We're getting back on our feet now. I have a nice new van and bought our lass a nice new car at the weekend.

damn certainly not good. There's a lot of jealous people out there these days, so vandalism would make sense.

Damn Andy, sorry to hear about the fire. Glad no one was hurt.
Hopefully you can get yourselves sorted out quickly.
