@Shaz51 , oh I'm sorry to hear about Mr Shaz not feeling well. Hopefully he will after a good rest. I hope you had a delicious cup of tea with biscuits and are doing something lovely like reading a good book!
If you want any recommendations @Shaz51 @Former-Member on your genres you like I can help. Books bring me a lot of joy too...as well as puzzles 🙂.
Also, hope you have time to rest.
Sending hugs my friend xx

Thats good to do the checking of costs first. Based on my experience I have had to be really careful with mechanics in the past. Just spoke to someone on here last night about expensive dental bills. The cost of living is sky high. I have been slashing my budget and have been able to save $2000 annually ringing around just getting better deals. My next plan is to restrict meat consumption and gravitate slowly to going vegan @TAB. Sounds like you have a good mechanic that charges fair price but still $400 is a huge chunk of money.
