Bloody bloody car is still not ready! Nearly a month after the accident. We've sorted all the money stuff out - it's all covered. Hurray! But what with Easter and Ford sending the wrong f*ing steering rack to the garage.....we still don't have wheels.

And see it's my own fault! If we had gone with the garage the insurers used we'd have had a courtesy car the entire time. But because we wanted to use our local garage (nice man, does good work) and we thought it would be quick to fix, we argued with the insurance company to leave it where it was ......we actually argued with the buggers!

Gnnrrnnnnrrgghh!

Looking on bright side, we've saved a lot of money on diesel. The tank had better still be full when I pick it up or I shall resort to hard stares!

None of you care!

How could you be so callous

Sorry, just logged in, but I feel your pain. No sooner had we sorted out the suspension on DH's car, than the clutch goes in DS1's car. Now it's fixed, there's £80 worth of repairs needing doing on DS2's.

I care, Orm!

We need a 'manly pat on the shoulder' emoticon.

There has been a thread kicking of a bit in AIBU so that might be why it's a bit quiet.

You would think a local / smaller garage would be putting some effort into the service they give, what wi' times being hard and that.

I have started using our small local chemist instead of boots etc. However I may switch back as they are always having a conversation with each other while I am stood there waiting to pay (I feel like I'm interrupting their chat iykwim) restocking shelves with a queue of 5/6 people waiting and often they just don't stock what I am after. Grrr....

Be careful. I said bad words and kicked something back in January (for less good reason, but that's unimportant). Now it looks like the nail on my big toe is going to fall off just in time for sandal season Holding it on with bright pink nail varnish...

Garrggghh!

Thanks for the warning! I don't need yucky toe nails too.
