Recent reports that Aricept - the drug used in the treatment of people with dementia problems is to be withdrawn, have caused me some concern as it has been prescribed for my Mother for the past few years with quite good results.

Reading a sample of recent posts it has become apparent to me that not only has the drug obviously been withdrawn by several NHS trusts in the Solent and Covent Garden area, but that also there was a high dependency on it amongst forum users.

you do know there's no toolkit with espace? I'd leave the boat toolkit at home and treat yourself (& boat) to an inexpensive B&Q kit ... it's got lots of spanners and screwdrivers /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Espace stories

the vast number of issues with ReeNolt Espasses almost warrants a new forum. First off, the seat are detachable. But so is most of the trim. If the internal trim is still vaguly in place, it needs a delicate touch.

On long adventures, it is advisable never to drive through large puddles as the cars don't like it and the water gets into the low-mounted airintake with terminall results for the engine.

Apparently it's a good idea to keep the car parked a reasonable distance from the house or wherever you are staying: a mate was doing the washing up and his espace spontaneously caught fire as he watched from the window. Obviously you won't be able to get the thing in a garage as it'll be full of the seats you have taken out and stored.

On a lighter note, it's dead exciting to whiz up to the 1.85m height restrictions on the way to the chunnel which an espace JUST gets under.
