GET IN!!!!

Had a call-out last night so had some time off this morning. Went to Costco but no joy with the correct battery so got one from Halfords, although £71.99 was a bit steep but got a 4-year warrenty with it so not too bad.

Got a neighbour to help me pull the car out, which was great fun as the battery was so dead I couldn't open the windows to pull the car. Took a lot of effort but the brakes finally broke free and it shot out the garage and almost hit my van! doh

Battery all changed now and had time for a little blast up the A13 to charge it a bit.

ALSO - now got a poxy cat living in the garage!!! Spent 4hrs washing and waxing the car on Monday, now got foot prints ALL over the car and some nice big scratch marks where it's slipped all the way down the bonnet and down the bumper..........FFS I don't use it much so I can save some money, due to that, the battery has just cost me all the money I saved from leaving it in the garage, and NOW I've got loads of scratches down the F-ing bonnet!!!! I try and keep it nice and all get is F-ing Grief!!!!!!!!

Thanks Matt, I'm getting a little bit narked with the car at the moment and the ***** is getting on my wick (never thought I'd ever say that ).

Will have a go at my Dad's as he has loads of polish and bits (all mine), if it's still bad I'll give you a shout

I'll look after your car for you Ross. 110 miles a day should keep the battery charged and the brakes will free up nicely.
as for that cat......go on make his day....
