So, I spoke to the man this morning, and will be picking up an shiny, old Jaguar at the end of the week. It's pretty much the ideal time to have a car that's unfeasibly outrageous and not the slightest bit sensible, since I'll almost never actually be doing any driving in it. Plus it was dirt cheap. It won't be dirt cheap to run, of course, but I refer you to the almost never going to use it bit. Plus I don't care ...

I ought to be able to persuade them to correct the matter when I tell UBS the correct date and they phone up to confirm, but you never quite know ...
One more week to go!
