Well dun is out and wifes away for the day so thought I would give her car a run ( shes got an old convertible) it seemed a shame not to. Well would you know it regused to start .....great!!!!. So thought I'd be preductive and try to look at it ( was a mechanic in former life). . Two hours later gave up. Then still feeling ok set about a car we are trying to get running for my daughter. Half hour later found failt and fixed it . ......then flat battery.. Bright idea borrow battery from wifes car. Sat ready to stsrt car but suddenly couldnt bring myself to turn key. Think I couldnt handle it not working . Afterhalf an jour of feeling like this I litrally swore at the car and in a hissy git turned the key. .....the car roared into life YEAH!!!. At least I had fixed one car . Then realised yep I had fixed the one that wssnt on the road...arrrhhhhh hate cars. I think my wifes car only works for me in the rain. But on the posative side we can now get my daughters car tested. . Also I have fixed the car ....just happens to be the wrong one. Also I ache and have a splitting headache but at least I have achieved something to suffer like this Just decided to take this as a posiitive day and I have just checked diary for tommorrow and its empty so think its a rest day now.
