Look after yourself. Start again in the spring.

More from scumtree. I think the waffle translates to he bought it for a song and now wants to pay off his house in one hit. https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/wynnum/cars-vans-utes/landrover-1980-series-3-stage-1-3-9l-isuzu-diesel-utility/1280906407?utm_source=criteo&utm_medium=retargeting&utm...
