    Pissing cars!!!

    Last August the Crankshaft Sensor went and buggered up (£200)... My Wife had her MOT in September and needed a new Anti-Roll Bar to pass (£150), knew that I needed a new tyre and headlight ahead of my MOT this year so got that done early, didnt really mind because they're the usual things that you'd expect the car to fail on.

    Nope!!... Last week my car had its MOT - its own Anti-Roll Bar failed!! (£200) - Drove into work this morning and have felt my clutch start to go so its £650 that I'm now going to have to fork out to get that replaced!!

    You've had an anti roll bar fitted to your missus, where did you get that done?

    I would imagine it's the bushes in the anti roll bar that have gone rather than the bar itself.

    They're a piece of piss to change.

    Yeah, they can be money pits mate. The problem with most modern cars is that there's less and less you can actually do yourself on them anymore (although they are generally more reliable).

    OK mate, give me a shout when you get there. I'll be there fairly early as they like to have all the show cars in place before the general public arrive.

    Very quick holiday update, as some of you seem to be taking an interest in it.

    Last couple of days have actually been really nice, and now that she's away from the shopping environment we've got on pretty well and I'm enjoying her company. Appreciate this probably isn't what some of you were hoping to hear but I have warmed to her a fair bit. To be honest, the only thing that stops it from being the perfect romantic getaway is that every time she speaks and every time I look at her, I have red hot hatred pulsing through my veins like boiling oil.

    Anyway, she's nearly finished having her henna tattoo done, and I urgently need another strong drink. My next update will hopefully be a closure report when I'm flying home on Saturday.

    I'm keeping myself sane by constantly singing that "Bertie Mee said to Bill Shankly" chant. I love you Charlton, I love you England.

    Yeah, perhaps the sarcasm didn't come across that well on my previous post. It's 3 rashers of hate, 2 Cumberland hateages, poached hates, bubble & hate, a couple of slices of hate pudding, hate beans, grilled tomhatos and, because I'm trying to be healthy, a nice slice of hatefruit.

    Hatey, hatey, hate.

    Exactly. Leading to a row with a competitive 6 year old regarding why a particular square is the snake, when it wasn't for her a turn earlier
