Good day - Bad day
« on: January 08, 2008, 22:16:36 »
  The disco passed MOT straight away today  :dance:

  The disco broke down driving out of the mot bay  :doh:

  Turned out to be the earthing tag on the fuel pump had snapped off, so after finding/fixing the problem, we were on our way home again, abit 2 1/2 hours later than planned  :roll:

I am trying to organise a day out on sat 16th Feb if your up for it around basingstoke / reading lanes.

Back to thread. I had a bad day. Rover failed mot, quote for repair work £420 and to just add that little extra ouch to the kick in my man veg DVLA posted me a lovely letter to say my road tax on the disco is up for renewal. So nice to hear from them again after a year  :twisted: :evil: :twisted:

Good side. My lodger came home so someone to talk to again  :D

Yet to have a 'good' day this year :S

I must confess the the activities of the UK governments for the past couple of years have been watched with frank admiration and amazement by Lord Vetinari. Outright theft as a policy had never occured to him.
