All the best,

Highly recommend "The Art of Racing in the Rain" (book above), even to those who don't usually find the time to read. Wonderful story.

Also, the above comments about folks losing their cat friends surely brought a tear to my eye. Growing up with cats my whole life, but not having my own since leaving for college, I can't wait to have a shop cat. The lady is allergic, but having a cat in the garage in the future is something I've managed to get her to agree to.
