[quote=Kobber;27292816]Good morning everyone and welcome to QOTD for Tuesday, 11th December, 2012. I’m spending a lot of time (and money) this week at the dentist. It’s no fun, but at least I’m getting it all out of the way before Christmas and our summer holidays.

Not using my legs, but I have using four wheels and an engine.
