This is where I post a monthly snapshot of my life. Need to know what a "now" page is? Derek Sivers explains it all.
Another New Car
I have had a stinking cold for the last week and today I also have a hangover. Drank two glasses of wine last night, now I’ve got a bloody headache. I never used to get hangovers – not even when drinking heavier stuff, arghh.
So. I’ve not been to work. I think P’s caught the bug too, but he’s a lot better at getting over this sort of thing than me.
We bought a car last week. The current one wasn’t going to make it through the MOT, so we nipped across to a dealer round the corner and they happened to have a suitable vehicle for just £399. What’s funny is, it’s the same car, just three years newer, lol. It’s got an injection engine too, hehe, I like nippy cars.
The chap at the dealership was really nice and offered to put it through an MOT for us as well or give us £100 off. We decided to let him sort out the MOT which was a wise decision as it failed on brake pipes and took quite a bit of labour to get them replaced. In the meantime, as the MOT on the old car had expired, the dealer lent us a courtesy car while the new one as being fixed. Now how’s that for customer service! So we got to drive around in a funky L reg VW Passat for four days. If you’re in Suffolk and need a new car, check out Astons.
Not much other news to report. Bought Matrix Revolutions and Reloaded. Created a new website for submitting and discussing nightmares. I’ll add more when I remember, lol.
