Wondering when work are going to hurry the fuck up and either tell me I can have my voluntary redundancy, or whether the gits want to keep me.

When we were an Empire it was run by an Empress
Now we're a country we're run by a..........

Spent most of today re-soldering all the busted connections on my 3300 battery. And the rest of the day changing a V2 gearbox from front to rear wired. :evil:

Best one I heard was from a man who'd married off 3 daughters in 3 years:

"This is the last time I have to speak as a father of the bride. I don't have any money left".

Today, I've found out that it's going to cost me up to £300 for a new tyre for my car, after picking up a puncture yesterday. :cry: :slap:



When I want your opinion - I'll tell you what it is!

Nope. Just a Toyota, which uses run flat tyres. A good idea in principle but a TOTAL pain in the arse if you get a puncture. You have no spare and you can drive up to 90 miles at 60MPH on the run flats' support ring. You have to get it changed at either a dealer or a specialist tyre fitter as well. My local dealer can't get me in until monday, because their trained fitter is on holiday. If it's a repairable puncture, it's £50, if I need a new tyre, it's £150, if I need a new tyre AND a new support ring, it's £300. It takes 1.5 hours to change one of these tyres appparently.

I had an idea of what I was letting myself in for when I bought the car but I was seduced by all of the toys it has (it rivals a Range Rover for sheer levels of kit) but I don't think I'll be keeping it after this, even though it's a pleasure to drive.

Understandable, that's a huge amount for what's basically a straightforward puncture. I'll remember to steer clear of run-flats then!
