Frantic Friday… and more.

Tuesday, October 28th, 2008

I’ve lost Thursday, can’t remember it at all. Oh yes, failed to get anyone out the door and stayed home in a heap of general lethargy.
Friday was a bit mental really; Max took the girls to see Nim’s Island at 10am while i went to work, collected me at 1.30pm, R turned up to give [...]

RIP Big Green Monster Car
The man with the final say decided it wasn’t allowed to be repaired; at least, initially he phoned and said he could but that was when he thought it had only done 50,000 miles whereas in fact it had a previous dashboard console that had done 80,000 miles. So [...]
