They ask if we want to help "save the planet", and enclose a forest's worth of paper in posh bible size brochure explaining tests etc.

You let them take your supposedly fuel efficient car and they see if manufacturers claims are still valid after a few years of driving. If your vehicle fails any tests they tell you but it does NOT affect MOT or Tax.

As I have a 2nd car I can use I am going to do this. Anyone else been invited??

I'd snap their hands off if I could manage withuot the car for a bit.

Message
Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face,  , type [smile] or :)
For a big grin,  , type [grin] or :o
For a wink,  , type [wink]
For a shocked face,  , type [shock]
For an angry face,  , type [angry]
For an embarrassed face,  , type [blush]
For a sad face,  , type [sad] or :(
For an envious face,  , type [envy]
For a sceptical face,  , type [hmm]

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
