Hi! I'm Lacey!
I was born and raised on a farm, am addicted to cookies, and can predictably be found counting down to bedtime-when I get to hang out (sans kiddos) with my husband. Currently, we call sunny St. George, Utah home, where we are surrounded by beautiful red rock landscapes.
I'm lucky enough to be a mom to a seven-year-old girl and a four-year-old little boy. And when I say lucky, I mean there was a time in my life I never thought I'd get to carry that title. Thanks to perseverance, prayers, and amazing birth mom, we were blessed through adoption with our two beautiful kids. They are a light in our home and have transformed us.
Despite my years of yearning for children, motherhood gets the best of me most days. Raising little humans is hard! Because of that, I thrive off photos that speak truth—the good and the sometimes difficult, but always real and glorious in their candor. These are the photos I look back on with love and adoration. These are the photos that illustrate the ordinary times in our lives that will prove to be the most treasure.
My favorite photos are those of my family's day trips and lazy afternoons, where there are no expectations of perfection—only my kids being who they really are. I feel a deep need to create that for you too. That's why photographing families with a natural approach is so important to me. With forced poses out of the equation, the result is simply magical. What emerges are families BEING together, with pictures that highlight the energy and palpable love which is the reason why we brave the arena of parenthood in the first place.
Because you're here, I know you feel the same way. You want the kind of session where you're not yelling at your kids to look at the camera, and photos where your family's individual personalities beautifully emerge.
I'm so glad you found me! Let's make it happen!

It shares a story of a family, specifically a father who is faced by a parent's biggest fear..the death of their child. Many world-renowned writers have tried to put into words this feeling: Mark Twain said that there aren't enough words in all the languages in the world to express the sorrow of losing a child. "To lose a child … was something that could end one's world. One could never get back to how it was before. The stars went out. The moon disappeared. The birds became silent." – Alexander McCall Smith Alexander McCall Smith began shaping to use his hands and give back to the ocean that gave him a sense of purpose during this dark time. Smith names each board to give it a sense of character, the board featured in this film is named after his daughter Willow "Noelani – Hawaiian for beautiful girl from heaven". Video: Stillbirth and Surfing – A Love Story The little blue board was taken to many surf spots and new adventures, beautifully crafted tribute. This short film tugs heavy at your heart strings, we hope you enjoy. Video: Stillbirth and Surfing – A Love Story

Money, power, fame and luxury are not gained on a platter of Gold, it takes time with hard work and perseverance to acquire all these things. But this is not the case of some Ghanaian youths–all they want is quick money, fame and luxurious life.
This is the story of one young man by name Nazareth Opoku Agyeman, also known as Kojo Denkyem, an Ashaiman boy who hustled from streets to the studio with hopes of musical breakthrough.
After going through 'hell' in life, Kojo Denkyem and his bosom friend decided to take an easy route to gain success and fame in their musical career in 2009.
They looked for easy options through which they could acquire fame and the only quick option was to rely on 'juju' (black magic) for their musical breakthrough.

According to the rapper, they were able to schedule an appointment with a fetish priest who promised to get them whatever they wished for in life.
Sadly, his friend secretly arranged with the fetish priest to offer him [Kojo Denkyem] as a sacrifice for money rituals and fame.
"The guy and I were very good friends so we wanted to come out with a joint album and after the album, we'll go our separate ways….After we poured the blood on, the fetish priest spoke many words to encourage us.

"But this fetish priest and my friend changed to speak a language I couldn't understand. It was an unknown language," Kojo Denkyem added.
Kojo Denkyem continued that he encountered a lot of spiritual attacks, went mad until he met a man of God who healed him in 2009.
The rapper indicated that he became aware of the hidden motive of his friend when he was finally healed.

Kojo Denkyem has now repented and taken up the cross of Jesus Christ making preaching the word of God his full time job. He now goes by the name 'Call Me Nazareth' and has released an album titled 'Madness to Greatness'.

Once you call us, Pat – our professional and experienced snake and animal handler, will catch, contain and relocate the snake to a safe, far away location that's suitable.Your safety and the welfare of the snake are important to us.
Bites from this species have caused human fatalities. A nervous, ready biter it will defend itself if threatened. The second most toxic land snake in the world and the most venomous in South East Queensland. Often encountered in and around localities with a strong rodent presence such as bird aviaries and stock feed sheds.
Bites from this species should be treated immediately and attended to with correct first aid. Average length is around 1.5 metres. They will eat Primarily frogs, but also other reptiles (including other snakes) and small mammals. Could be typically associated with ground areas such as timber piles, sheet iron, rock walls and heavy vegetation.
Bites may cause substantial lacerations or punctures. Most commonly encountered snake within the region. Active day and night. Large specimens can take small suburban pets such as dogs, cats and guinea pigs with smaller specimens taking caged birds. Will utilise all above ground areas such as roof and wall cavities, exposed beams and pergolas.
Common Tree Snakes bite infrequently. They will emits a strong odour if handled firmly. Probably the most common species to enter homes. Generally above ground environs such as heavy foliage of trees and shrubs, exposed beams of verandas and pergolas, sheds and garages. Fast-moving and hard to see in heavy cover.
Potentially Dangerous, especially if children are involved. Bite may cause localised pain & severe symptoms. Please apply correct first aid and seek medical attention ASAP. They like dry open areas and grasslands which encourages them to be around houses.
Not considered dangerous to humans. All crowned snakes are reluctant biters, relying more on bluff display than bite. They are weakly venomous and have tiny mouths and short fangs. They will generally rear up & 'mock strike' with mouth closed, more of a 'head butt'. If bitten, as with any snake bite, apply correct first aid and seek medical attention.

text: I love when it's tomato season. The tomatoes are sweeter, they come in every color and shape and size, and it's so fun to gobble them all up. I even just put a huge bowl of orange teeny tiny cherry tomatoes on the kitchen island so that we can all just grab a handful here and there to enjoy like a handful of M&Ms...but instead it's nature's candy and I feel like we are being really really healthy:) The other day at the Farmer's Market I couldn't help but get 3 bags full of tomatoes even though we were going to be headed out of town the next day and I decided to use them all in one dish. A tomato salad sounded like a great idea for enjoying the rainbow of tomatoes I had gotten at the market. I had a bag full of the teeny tiny orange, a bag of bright yellow heirlooms called "peach tomatoes", and a bag of beautiful green ones with yellow stripes called "green zebra tomatoes". I diced the yellow and the green zebra varieties because they were quite a bit bigger than the orange and left the teeny tiny orange ones whole. Then we...and I say we because sweet Sally is my official sous chef...crumbled some feta and some parmesan into our salad along with some fresh chopped basil, olive oil, reduced balsamic vinegar (the sweeter kind), and a bit of salt and pepper. And bippity boppity boo a fresh yummy and easy tomato salad.

Today is National Women's Day in South Africa
On this day in 1956, one of the largest demonstrations in South Africa's history took place when 20,000 women marched peacefully against unjust "pass laws" used to maintain segregation and control freedom of movement during the apartheid regime. A protest song composed for the occasion led to the now commonly used phrase, "you strike a woman, you strike a rock," which has come to represent women's courage and strength.
As we honor the contributions of these admirable women, we thank all of our partners — especially the women who have taken part in our clinical studies — for helping to make a healthy future possible for women in South Africa and everywhere.
Happy National Women's Day!

Commerzbank was bailed out this week by the government providing €10 bn at the going share price of €6 per share. The price has fallen since and probably could have been lower. Also, €8.2 bn come as a silent participation. However, with the share in Commerzbank now at 25 percent the government has a blocking minority and will send two people to the board.*
The German plan looks unfavorable compared to that of the UK, for instance. In the UK, the government gets preferences share in return for extra capital. Also, banks were forced to take on a minimum of 25 bn pounds each.

"The practical element where we could use our own SCRs and our own SR policy. I also liked that it was a small group so the leader was able to help us all out with our individual queries for which there was plenty of time."
"Learning what is the preferred layout for the SCR and exactly what it should include. Dismissing some myths about what should and shouldn't be done in the recruitment process and clarifying grey areas."
"As it was limited numbers it gave a good opportunity to raise many questions particular to our setting."

Risk From Consumption Of Alcohol
A study on the effects of the consumption of alcohol on the patients with type 2 diabetes at the Huazhong University of Science and Technology shows that the consumption of wine is more helpful when compared with beer or spirits consumption for the patients with type 2 diabetes.
There may be a greater risk of severe hypoglycemia if more alcohol is consumed. The lead author of the study was Dr. Jin Huang. The study was published in the Journal of Diabetes Investigation.
Treatment With iGlarLixi
iGlarLixi is a combination drug for the treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2D). This drug is manufactured by the Zealand Pharma. This drug was recommended for approval by the US FDA panel.
The drug manufacturer says that this drug is under the regulatory review in Europe. The drug is a combination of Lantus (insulin glargine. Sanofi) and the Lyxumia (lixisenatide. GLP-1 drug). Those patients who are taking the insulin or a GLP-1 drug to control the blood sugar levels would be given preference.
Earlier, the Endocrinologic and Metabolic Drugs Advisory Committee (EMDAC) has approved the Novo Nordisk drug (named as IDegLira), which is similar to iGlarLixi.
Risk Of Diabetic Cardiomyopathy
The researchers at the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB), Galveston, have found a molecular mechanism involved in diabetic cardiomyopathy in patients with diabetes.
Heart disease is the number one cause of death for patients with diabetes. A patient with diabetes is at a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases. This is due to the damage to the heart muscle, causing a restricted blood circulation.
Researchers have identified an RNA binding protein Rbfox2. This may help the researchers in the development of better tools to manage the diabetic cardiomyopathy.
The lead author of the study was N Muge Kuyumcu-Martinez, an Assistant Professor at the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB), Galveston. The study was published in the journal Cell Reports.
Risk Of Vitamin D Deficiency
The researchers from the University of Pennsylvania School of Nursing have found a deficiency of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25 hydroxy vitamin D) among Caucasian children with a healthy weight.
The authors say that the study underlines the importance of screening of 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels in all children with type 1 diabetes. The research was published in the Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice.
Discovery Of A Molecule
The researchers at the University of Lincoln, the United Kingdom have identified an unknown 5th molecule. The immune system attacks this molecule in patients with type 1 diabetes.
An earlier study has found that the immune system attacks five key targets in the patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D). The earlier study has already discovered four molecules. They are
Scientists are trying to identify the fifth molecule for the past 20 years. The previous name for this molecule was Glima. Now, the scientists have found that it is a human protein and named as Tetraspanin-7. Tetraspanin-7 is a protein molecule and it can accurately identify the risk of type 1 diabetes in the people.
The lead author of the study was Dr. Michael Christie, the University of Lincoln. The study was published in the Diabetes, the Journal of the American Diabetes Association.
About JDRF
In an event hosted by the Jamie Reed, Copeland MP and Theresa May, Home Secretary, JDRF have announced that £97m will be spent on diabetes research in the UK. The money is being provided by seven funders.

I do believe in Spirits or Ghosts - we have one in this house! He has never shown his face but when Aunt Kate would be here, he would drive her crazy and the dogs have seen him! It's the man who built this house for his wife and son and died tragically and he refuses to cross over!
Sorry to hear about Margaret but she was not having a good quality of life! Tell Charlie how sad we are for him!

RIP Margaret.
I know you are right and that the rosary was her communication with you. I'm glad she said goodbye. I helps to have closure. I also know what it is to have loved a mother-in-law. You're a very lucky girl. Hope you and Charlie are doing well. It's been a long haul for you both.
Love you.

Gilwern Primary School wins recognition for healthy lifestyle support
Green In Europe Project
This week we have been hosting 43 international visitors from around Europe thanks to our involvement in an Erasmus+ project: 'Green in Europe.'
Staff and pupils from three schools; Italy, Bulgaria, and the Basque region of Spain are involved along with ourselves in the promotion of sustainable life styles. Staff and Governors from Gilwern have previously travelled to Taranto in Italy and Bilbao in Spain, with a future trip to Bulgaria being planned. Our guests have been staying in the Gilwern Outdoor Education Centre and have had the opportunity to enjoy our wonderful countryside with outdoor activities and a walk on the Blorenge. They have also experienced Welsh culture; with a visit to Cardiff, a trip to Big Pit and a visit to a local sustainable property.
We have been delighted to see how Gilwern pupils have interacted with our visitors; making friends, listening to presentations, sharing ideas and promoting their cultures through a variety of learning activities. We look forward to further enhancing our links with our partners as the project continues to encourage the children to consider themselves 'sustainable, global citizens.'
A Warm Welcome
Gilwern School would like to welcome our visitors from our Erasmus project.
Over the weekend we have seen our visitors arrive from Italy, Bulgaria and the Basque Country.

Red Hook Puzzle "Can You Find It?" is a zine left in places around Red Hook featuring images revealed by graphite of various locations of the neighborhood. Rik Beck's visual map of locations for people to find and explore. This self-made publication is a game of sorts to observe the neighborhood in a different way by asking people to connect the rendered drawings to the actual physical locations.
This work, all part of her project Urban Tracks, examines outside spaces and the structure of surfaces found all around us: new, worn-down and eaten away by exhaust fumes pollution, rough, smooth, fine, ornamental, figurative, monochrome and so on. Rik uses graphite to reveal the structures in an authentic way. She renders the image into a new form equivalent to a photograph. The materials used are graphite ink, watercolor and she is currently experimenting with lime (with fresco painting).
ABOUT Rik Beck
Rik Beck is an artist, curator, and a social worker living and working in Germany. Rik has participated in projects all over the world, including Berlin, Ghana, and Kyrgyzstan. In Stuttgart where she resides, Rick gave lectures on urban planning in the university. Currently, she is a teacher of urban sketching for adults at V.H.S. in Stuttgart. She also developed a seminar school called Ghatronic in Ghana for using digital programs with the use of PC. Rik is our artist and residence for March 2018.

Basketball Picks Daily Fantasy Expert Advice
Daily Fantasy NBA Playoff Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings - Round 1 4/28/18
It's just a two game slate, with Boston and Milwaukee finishing their series and New Orleans and Golden State starting their series. With Steph Curry ambiguously listed as "questionable" just a week after Steve Kerr claimed he'd be out a while, so things are still fairly up in the air here. Let's see if we can make sense of things.

Milwaukee Bucks at the Boston Celtics
Series tied 3-3
Things are officially wild in the East, with the Cavs/Pacers series being pushed to seven games on Friday and Celtics/Bucks being decided in seven today. Things looked really hard for the Celtics in this one, following up their 42% shooting from game 5 with a dismal 37% shooting effort in this one. Thankfully they've still got a fantastic defense. These two teams have split the last two games with neither team topping 100 points in either game, so it doesn't seem as though there is a lot of offense to be passed around right now. On the Celtics' side of things only Rozier, Tatum, and Horford topped 30 fantasy points in game six, and only Tatum can claim that he paid his price in that one.
I'm still optimistic about Jaylen Brown (FD $6600 DK $6500) here. He's playing 40 minute rotations right now, and while it didn't come together in game six he did pay off his prices in game five. I'd also play Al Horford (FD $7700 DK $6700) today simply because center is so thin.
The Bucks have been generally terrible from a fantasy perspective in the last two games of this series, with Giannis having a nice game and the rest of the team basically disappearing. Malcolm Brogdon (FD $4300 DK $4500) was solid on these prices, and Jabari Parker was reasonable.
My general take on this series is that I'd like to play as few players as possible, and prioritize the next series instead.
New Orleans Pelicans at the Golden State Warriors
Series tied 0-0. Implied Vegas total is 223.5. Golden state favored by 9.5.
Steph Curry went through a 5-5 scrimmage, as of this writing is still listed as questionable for game one of this series. I'm going to write this up as though he's sitting, since that still seems like the most likely outcome here.
So what are we getting from this series? For starters, we're getting a game with an implied Vegas total nearly 30 points higher than the Bucks-Celtics series, so we know there is potentially a lot of fantasy value to be had here.
Let's start with the challengers. The Pelicans were arguably the most impressive team of round one, sweeping the Blazers in short order on the back of greatly tightened rotations. While it's hard to call the Warriors a good match-up for anyone, you could argue that this is actually one of the better spots they could find themselves in the West right now. The reason? The Dubs should allow them to employ the same small(er) ball lineup that worked against the Pelicans, playing Mirotic at the four and Brow at the five. They did this against Portland to great effect, and again, the shortened rotations make all the difference here.
It seems as though they're content to play Rajon Rondo (FD $7100 DK $7500) and E'Twaun Moore (FD $4400 DK $3900) 35-39 minutes, and Jrue Holiday (FD $8300 DK $7800), Anthony Davis (FD $12500 DK $11100), and Nikola Mirotic (FD $7900 DK $7400) seem locked into 40+ minutes. There's a little big of blowout risk here, but man, it's a two game slate. I'll play as many Pelicans as I can, prioritizing Moore the least since I'd guess his minutes are most at risk.
On the Golden State side the rotation isn't quite as small, but we're getting some crazy value thanks to the other-worldly match-up here. It's easy to forget after what we saw in round one, but the Pelicans are the worst defensive team left in the playoffs this side of the Cleveland Cavaliers. Kevin Durant (FD $10200 DK $9700) on a Steph-less Warriors team looks like a fair bet to hit 60 fantasy points, Andre Iguodala (FD $4200 DK $4000) looks like a terrific value on 30+ minutes as the pseudo-point guard, and Thompson and Green look like fine values as well. Kevon Looney (FD $3000 DK $3200) is a cute play because he's just too cheap at ~$3,000 on both sites, and playing 20-25 minutes in many games.

If you are pregnant or suffer from asthma, COPD, diabetes, chronic heart, liver or kidney disease, you may be entitled to a free flu jab either from your surgery or from participating pharmacies. With the risk of hospitals being full this winter, don't take the risk!

text: Share: Comments Print October 6, 2010 at 1:54 PM ASU week questions, volume two Posted by Mason Kelley A look at the true freshmen, playing without fear, and more in this edition. Q: Can you break down which of the true freshmen are playing this season and which may redshirt? A: There are 14 true frosh playing, and now that they have played, it's best to assume none will end up redshirting. If there are injuries to any, they could theoretically try to appeal and get the year back if the injury occurs early in the year. But at the moment, it's best to assume that all 14 who have played will end up using this as a year of eligibility. Those 14 are: TB Jesse Callier — Has played in all four games and is the team's No. 2 tailback and has 163 yards on 28 carries. RB Zach Fogerson —- He has officially played in all four games, almost entirely on special teams, and could get a bigger role as the season wears on. WR Kevin Smith — He has played in all four games and emerged as the No. 1 kickoff returner until dislocating his thumb against USC. He will miss a couple weeks. TE Michael Hartvigson — He has officially played in all four games, almost solely on special teams. Another whose role could expand as the season progresses. TE G Erik Kohler — Has played in all four games and started the last two at left guard. G Colin Porter — Has officially played in two games, mostly on special teams. DE Hau'oli Jamora — Has played in all four games and had eight tackles against Nebraska and his role figures to only expand as the season progresses. DT Sione Potoa'e — Has played in all four games and is the team's sack leader with 1.5. MLB Garret Gilliland — Has played in all four games and got the start against Nebraska when Cort Dennison was out. OLB Cooper Pelluer — Has played in all four games, mostly on special teams. OLB Princeton Fuimaono — Has played in all four games, mostly on special teams. SS Sean Parker — Has played in all four games, mostly on special teams, but also has seen time in nickel packages. Is the backup and heir apparent to Nate Williams. S Taz Stevenson — Has played in three of four games and is back to safety after spending some time at tailback. Has played mostly on special teams. CB Greg Ducre — Has played in all four games as a backup and on special teams. Had an interception against Syracuse and two tackles against USC. Barring significant injuries that would cause the team to have dig deep into the depth, every other true frosh this year should redshirt including Josh Shirley. Shirley did not make the trip to USC and has not played this season. Q: Since Steve Sarkisian is on the sideline and his view of the schemes is limited, is the OC up in the box checking those out? What process do they use for that? I'm no football coach but it seems like it would be really difficult to call plays from the sideline with such a nominal view of the schemes, so I was just curious how it works. A: Yes, offensive coordinator Doug Nussmeier is up in the press box — Sarkisian has called him his "eye in the sky." Sarkisian is in constant communication on his head phones, as you can see on game day, with Nussmeier and other coaches who are up in the box. Sarkisian called plays during his USC days from on the field, as well, so he's got a lot of experience doing it. Q: What are your thoughts on this whole "playing without fear" being the answer to some of the Huskies issues this year? It seems like a bit of a cliche Sark is throwing out there just to get the guys mentally in a better place, but can that really be a difference maker in a season? Seems too simple. A: Without really being inside the head of each and every guy, it's hard to really know for sure. With something as big and complicated as a football team, I think it's always risky to assume that all 70 guys, or however many are suited up that day, will respond the same to anything. But many players insisted it made a difference — and something made a lot of guys play better on Saturday. And obviously just about every coach who has ever blown a whistle has put a lot of importance into different motivational tactics — from the days of "Win One for the Gipper" on up. What coaches will generally tell you is that the biggest thing is setting a tone for the team during the week of practice, to make sure everyone is prepared right. I think a lot of what UW did was aimed at that — getting everyone back in a good place to prepare for USC followinig what happened against Nebraska. And obviously, what also helped is that USC isn't as good as Nebraska — and may not even be one of the top five teams in the Pac-10 when it's all said and done. But it's like just about anything in life — if they all thought it helped, then it probably did. Q: How common is it for a place kicker to leave early for the NFL? Could it be that arguably our largest offensive weapon for next year might not be around next year? A: I'm assuming you are referring to Erik Folk, and while I think we'd all agree Folk has done a great job kicking this year, I'm not sure I'd call him UW's "largest offensive weapon." I'm also not sure I've ever heard of a kicker leaving early for the NFL and I certainly wouldn't worry about that in the case of Folk. Kickers rarely get drafted high enough for that to even be a consideration and I don't think it will be here. All for now. Comments

Prince Harry confesses he had a crush on Meghan Markle's 'Suits' character for a long time
I'm not sure if I'm a believer in love at first sight, but I do think there's something to be said for it. For some people, they believe that once you set eyes on the one for you, you will instantly become bestowed by their beauty and fall into a pit of love and lust that will last a lifetime. Whether you believe that love at first sight is real or not, it certainly seems to have been the case for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
It's been reported that everyone's favourite royal had a crush on his beau for two years before he ended up meeting her, after watching the actress on TV. When asked by a friend who his ideal woman was, the ginger prince is said to have answered: "Meghan Markle from Suits".
The 36-year-old actress plays the strong-willed and charismatic paralegal Rachel Zane in the show, and she has appeared in several steamy, eyebrow-raising sex scenes throughout the course of the show's seven seasons.
The revelation of Harry's infatuation with the actress comes from royal expert Katie Nicholl and more will be revealed in Channel 4's documentary When Harry Met Meghan: A Royal Romance, set to air tonight at 9 pm.
"He had a crush on Rachel Zane two years before he met Meghan and the reason I know is because I was having drinks with one of his friends.
"She told me she'd been on a night out with Prince Harry. He was single at the time, so she said, 'Harry, who's your ideal girl?' And he said 'Meghan Markle from Suits'."
According to sources close to the royals, plans are in the works for a royal wedding, happening some time next year. It's understood that senior members of the Royal Family have been instructed to look at their diaries in order to shortlist a series of suitable weekends for the occasion.
It's believed that the wedding won't happen until William and Kate's third child is born and there are also other considerations for the couple to take a look at before they tie the knot. Meghan has previously been married, and due to her status as a divorcee, she won't be able to have a religious wedding in a church. This means that the couple would have the choice of a comparatively low-key venue such as the Royal Military Chapel at Wellington Barracks in St. James's Park.
Despite the rumours that she will have to leave the show if she is to marry the prince, Meghan is currently in Toronto filming the eighth series of Suits, with work set to finish on the series in the middle of November.
It's safe to say that Harry has it pretty easy, he's got the riches of a royal, without the pressure of eventually becoming king. Not only this, but he is also going to marry the woman of his dreams, the lucky devil.

"Having visited 3 other dealers within the sussex area, Pain cars was by far the most helpful. Staff were lovely. They had a high number of quality and resonably priced cars to view. I found my perfect car."
Friendly service, very help ful and catered to my busy work schedule to ensure i had time to see and drive he car, that was much appreciated
Large stock of cars all well prepared. Pleasant sales people who are well informed and not at all pushy. They have on site mechanics and work shops and the car was well presented on hand over day, new Mot and service and clean car. Good part ex. Family run business. Will use again. Thanks.
Sales staff friendly and courteous. Never felt any pressure by the staff to hurry or to complete the sale with several occasions being left to our own devices to discuss the sale with the staff making themselves available again once they were required. Any issues prior to our purchase were dealt with and resolved and throughout the sale we felt respected and that nothing was too much trouble.
"My daughter saw the car that she wanted at 9pm on 30th October. I arrived at the garage at 10am the next day and said that's the car she would like, when can we have it? They said 3 to 4 days so I asked if it could be ready by 5pm that day. After shuffling some paper they said yes. Then I cheekily asked if it could be ready for 4pm as I wanted to pick her up from work as it was a surprise. The gentleman then said to his colleague drop everything this lady is coming back at 4pm. My daughter emailed the garage to see if the car was still available, they guessed it was her and didn't reply.. you should've seen her face when I picked her up from Work in her car. Fantastic service."
"Everything went through smoothly and the sales guy was happy to answer all of our questions"
Friendly garage nice cars
I have been dealing with Pain's since 2004 and have always had great service. Have brought three cars from here and all have been of high standard. Always had the best deal on finance. All staff are very friendly and are very helpful. Parking is available at the rear of the site. Definitely the place to go for reasonably priced cars and after sales service.
Have always brought my cars at Pain Car Sales. Excellent service. reliable and honest.

he whole experience was made so smooth and very efficient indeed. The staff were most helpful and not at all pushy. They gave any advice needed making the whole process run smoothly. We looked at the vehicle we were interested in and once we had made the decision everything went smoothly.

We should like to thank the staff for being so welcoming and making it all go so well.
Excellent customer service. Very pleased. They couldn't do enough to help and make sure I was happy. I highly recommend them

Pain have many different makes/models, and at good prices , So if you need a car then try Pain Car Sales..
Fair, Fast and No Hassle. Having bought and had serviced cars over many years by Pain Car sales I had kept an eye on their changing stocks to replace my Zafira with a newer model. I was offered a good trade in price for my old vehicle and the new one came with a six month RAC warranty.

GrabTaxi has built an extensive ride-sharing infrastructure in Southeast Asia since being founded in 2012.
With a presence in six countries and 28 cities, a fleet of 160,000 drivers, and nine million app downloads, the Singapore-headquartered company is now working to introduce a stronger social element with its latest feature, GrabHitch, announced today by Co-founders Anthony Tan and Hooi Ling Tan in a business update.
Targeting drivers and passengers who share similar, if not identical, routes, GrabHitch will require both parties to log in to the service via Facebook. They will then be able to see each other's profiles and whether they share mutual friends.
If the driver's journey matches more than one potential passenger, the driver will decide which one to pick up.
"We're moving from what used to be a transactional relationship to a relationship that is a lot more real. One that requires and creates friendships and bonds," said Anthony Tan to the gathering of media.
Adding to her Co-founder's explanation, Hooi Ling Tan said: "It's essentially car-pooling on steroids."

Couples going on dates, concert goers, football fans going to a match at the National Stadium or individuals commuting to work — as long as they involve a journey from and to the same location — are examples of people who, and situations which, can benefit from GrabHitch.
The feature is now recruiting drivers for its launch in Singapore by the end of the year.
To enhance the safety of riders, GrabTaxi will require potential drivers to provide documentation including driving license, vehicle registration, and insurance for GrabHitch.
Credit card details will also be required for payment — through GrabPay, the cashless credit card option available in the GrabTaxi app — and as an additional layer of identification and security.
The cost of the journey will be calculated based on its distance and the user will be able to view the cost before deciding whether to take up the ride.
"Owning a car is not cheap. From a driver's perspective, it helps [alleviate] the cost of the journey. From the passenger's perspective, those who are used to using public transportation, they will now get the comfort of door-to-door transportation at a cost of slightly higher than what they are used to pay [for buses and trains] today," said Anthony Tan.
Drivers will be only able to accept up to two rides a day adhering to Singapore regulations, which also dictate that the payment received should only be to cover the expenses incurred during the ride and not for monetary profit.
Passengers can pre-book a ride seven days in advance and up to 15 minutes before pickup, by entering a pickup location and destination. Drivers and passengers will be notified when a successful match of the route is made.

GrabHitch adds to GrabTaxi's array of services, including the eponymous GrabTaxi, GrabBike, GrabCar and GrabExpress.
Emphasising the company's devotion to creating 'social value' on top of economic value, Anthony Tan aims to better utilise the "two to three empty seats" for each of the 500,000 to 600,000 cars (according to the Land Transport Authority, there were over 536,000 private cars in 2014) on the road.
"There will be less congestion and less carbon footprint. If we can make this (GrabHitch) work, Singapore will be a better place," said Anthony Tan.

Impatient President-elect promises: 'We're going to do spectacular things'
President-elect Donald Trump promised yesterday to do "spectacular" things for America and to prioritise cutting taxes, abolishing ObamaCare and beefing up immigration controls.
After meeting Paul Ryan, the Republican Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mr Trump said he would begin work "very rapidly" after his inauguration.
"We are going to lower taxes. I think we are going to do some absolutely spectacular things for the American people. We can't get started fast enough, whether it's healthcare or immigration," he said.
Mr Trump began plotting his first major appointments with allies such as Sarah Palin under early consideration.
His "transition team" was understood to be considering Rudy Giuliani, the former mayor of New York, for attorney general or national security adviser, while Newt Gingrich, the former House Speaker, was tipped for a foreign policy post.
As Mr Trump met President Barack Obama in the Oval Office, his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, who has become a close confidante, was seen on the White House south lawn with Denis McDonough, Mr Obama's chief of staff, leading to suggestions he could take over that post.
It was reported that a senior person on the transition team contacted Jamie Dimon, the chief executive of JPMorgan, to see if he would be interested in being treasury secretary. A source said yesterday there was a "less than 1pc" chance of him accepting.
A list of 41 names being considered for top jobs by the transition team has emerged.

Reince Priebus, the Republican National Committee chairman, is also named as a possible chief of staff. Dr Ben Carson, who ran against Mr Trump for the Republican nomination, is a possible secretary of education or secretary of health, while Chris Christie, the governor of New Jersey, is a potential homeland security secretary.
Ms Palin, the former Republican vice-presidential nominee, is listed as a possible secretary of the interior.
Mr Trump's team launched a new website, greatagain.gov, with a notice that he was looking to fill 4,000 slots for presidential appointees, including Cabinet positions and ambassadorships, a signal that he intends to recruit from the private sector. It said: "Any individual who wishes to serve the administration should utilise this online application in order to participate."
Once in office, Mr Trump will set about trying to fulfil his pledge to slash income tax and put more money in the pockets of working people. He will also cut corporation tax and regulation to allow them to start small businesses.
The billionaire wants to fix America's crumbling infrastructure, potentially put tariffs on Chinese goods, restore manufacturing industries and bring home profits held abroad by big business. His economic plan for America predicts 25 million new jobs over the next decade, and that the economy will grow by 4pc a year, more than double last year's figure.
Mr Trump will implement a $1trl infrastructure project, which alone could create 13 million jobs. That will be partly paid for by a $167bn investment from the private sector, in turn offset by tax credits.
The President-elect also wants to overhaul America's increasingly complex tax code, reducing the seven tax brackets to three. The highest tax bracket would fall from 39.6pc to 33pc. It has been estimated by some analysts that his reforms will add up to $7bn to the already spiralling national debt.
Towards the end of the campaign Mr Trump put his plan to "rip up Obamacare" centre stage, but making good on that pledge may be easier said than done.
Republicans have 51 seats in the Senate, far off the 60 needed to overturn it. Instead, he may try to dismantle key elements of the Affordable Care Act, which extended medical insurance to 25 million more people.
Mr Trump created shock waves during the presidential campaign with his call for a "total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States". But yesterday that particular proposal had been purged from his website.
Instead, there was a more ambiguous promise to suspend visas "to any place where adequate screening cannot occur". That policy has morphed into "extreme vetting", in which people from countries with a history of terrorism applying for visas would be subjected to enhanced security checks.

Grow your career, knowledge and success in 2019 with Worldwide ERC® membership.
Once a deal is reached, it will take several months to initiate. Negotiators initially had given themselves until October, but since have provided more flexibility.
The alternative to a deal is a hard exit in which the UK simply withdrawals from the EU. Both sides are looking to avoid such a scenario. The key sticking points include the border between Northern Ireland as part of the UK and the Republic of Ireland as an EU member. UK negotiators are concerned about treating Northern Ireland differently in regard to customs or regulatory systems with the EU negotiating to keep much of the current systems intact.
UK Prime Minister Theresa May and her cabinet are pushing the components of their Cheques plan, which outlines their vision of the post-Brexit relationship with the EU, which was presented in July. However, high-profile members of her party have voiced opposition to the plan which puts the UK negotiating positions in question. To address much of the uncertainty, the EU will likely announce soon a meeting in November as a backstop to the negotiations.
As part of the plan, the UK would end the free movement of people but would create a mobility framework for EU and UK citizens move between the two jurisdictions for travel, studies and work. This would have a direct impact on the ability to transfer employees between the UK and much of the rest of Europe. There are also broader implications regarding Brexit which could result in businesses relocating offices and employees between the UK and EU.
Related: Mobilizing Your Brexit Strategy
Brexit was invoked on 23 June 2016, when a majority of voters in the UK (a margin of 51.89% to 48.1%) opted for the UK to leave the EU. Then-UK Prime Minister Cameron, who advocated for the UK to remain part of the EU, resigned shortly thereafter and Theresa May was selected to replace him. On 29 March 2017, the UK triggered the Article 50 process which outlines the withdrawal of a country from the EU.
While the triggering of Article 50 provides for a two-year withdrawal timeframe of a member state from the EU, the UK and EU have agreed to a transition period. The transition period starts at the end of the 2-year period on 29 March 2019 and ends on 31 December 2020. The two parties are therefore negotiating on both a plan for the transition period as well as the full withdrawal starting in 2021.
