Do You Belive in Fate? or it was ment to be!!

Hi All, Six or so weeks back I put a van on ebay on my watch list just to see what it would go for. It pased in with no bids.

A week later it was relisted , it went back on my watch list. A few weeks later we were in town looking at vans,as you do, when you have little to do, yep all well over the buget, I mean well over. Any how on the way home Bev asked how the van was going you are watching on ebay. Have no idea havent look for 2 weeks.

She said that we should have a look just to see , after a cupper and some time ,I had a look and it was still there but it was located in south queensland as well.

The phone number was there so I gave it a call, no answer. 15 min. later the guy rang back ,we asked some questions ,but when I said where we lived  it went a little quite , he then said we will be passing through there in a hour if you want to have a close look.

Well we did have a close look, and its now parked in the drive way......

Bev carnt wipe the smile of her face, very happy.......

Bob n Bev.........

I believe there are no coincidences in life and everything happens for a reason. You were always going to get that van.

Congratulations! smile
