YET ANOTHER UPDATE: As the song goes, "What a difference a day makes" or in Jennifer's case that should be 'half a day'. After last night's midnight call and the subsequent 'Resuscitate or not'

Being told by the garage which was MOTing a Clio that I had just finished doing a head gasket change on that it was going to fail the MOT on emissions. They said: "There's no charge yet but there are no free retests, so did I want to continue the test to see if there was anything else wrong with it?"

Answer: Yes, of course I want you to go and waste my money by testing the car twice, and paying twice, when you've just given me a 'get out of jail card' highlighting a major failure point.

Note to self.... must take the batteries out of the 'stupid' light that must be installed in my forehead!

Still, I suppose they could have done the whole thing and then said it had failed.

Hope the Punto that they are testing now doesn't have a problem or it's going to be an expensive weekend!

Paul, hope your back gets better soon.......

Thanks Chris. :) Hope all goes well with the Punto.

How much time you got?? Lol

Plenty of time, except it is filled with every other activity, rather than for what I need to get done thanks.:sorcerer:

The usual equipment I use at work is being discontinued for no good reason.

I've been using a replacement today - no where near as good. I'm VERY unhappy.

Alcohol is infact fantastic at completely solving all back pain no matter how severe.

Its the only way I made it through my original prolapsed disc issues a few years ago... Highly recommended Paul, if beer doesnt work, start on the strong stuff...

Whinge whinge whinge! I'm tempted to lock this thread just on principal :sorcerer:

You know I started the 'what made you happy today' thread to offer a flip side to all the threads on here people start about the miseries in their life. Be more positive people!

I'll lock the thread, your bank accounts and your 'specialist' accounts too, I bet that would qualify most of our members for an 'unhapppy' thread :sorcerer:

Thanks Bibs, I've been looking for someone to take over my overdraft for ages... but I guess that would live in the Doppleganger thread!

When your bank manager comes knocking, tell him that 'Bibs' from the internet said it's fine and I'm sure you'll be ok :sorcerer:

Re bank managers and balances, etc, thought this excerpt from "Calcium made interesting" by Graham Chapman might be appropriate

A mates new girlfriend asked if my car was Knightrider's car. Then to add unsult to injuring she asked if it was a kit car. She wasn't joking either. She then said it looked like a lego car and she said she didn't like it. I know some ladies aren't really into cars so I can vaguely understand, but she didn't make a good first impression!

Having to have a sandwich instead of my Sunday roast. Whole road has had a powercut for some reason.

No Coffee, no hot food and at this rate, no Top Gear.

Last time this happened about three years ago, it was tourches and candles for 36 hours. ;)

Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk - that will teach us to keep mouth shut!
