Damn cars broken! That's both cars off the road now, I can't get to work, Kate was gonna get a lift, but her lift has cried off sick!
I am stuck just off the 23, been here since quarter past 5.
Got the breakdown people out, I have it on my bank account, they want 40 quid to take me 10 miles!! Apparently I have to pay for them to get back too! I sent him on his way, now they have to get themselves back. I wouldn't mind, but they never told me that when I phoned! Be cancelling that one later!
Luckily a good mate lives not far and is gonna tow me!
But, I am bored! |

| What a bummer Mike. Which breakdown service was it? Is Kate managing to find another way into work or are you both being forced to have an unplanned day off? Hope your day improves |

Sounds like you need to buy a new car?

Sorry, Mike, I should have said, sorry to hear about the chaos. Hope things have improved a bit by now. |

| Get an old banger (mk3 fiesta or similar) you could probably pick one up for about 200 quids, those things end up having another 200 thrown into it, but you end up with a good car then. Plus they don't call them "don't go wrong engines" for nothing. |

lol, i am not changing the car!! Kate got a lift to work, so thats ok, i have been under the car since getting it back here at about 830.
I have found the part thats leaking and removed it, i just need to get a replacement!! should be interesting.
Its the turbo oil feed and return pipework that is leaking, its a right b*tch to get to, and thats an understatement! |
