A very bad and expensive day

Well what a totally crap day....and I mean CRAP.

Yesterday my car was playing up quite a bit, even more than normal, and it had left a little puddle of liquid by the passenger front side wheel, Mrs EB was having a day off so I took her Corsa and asked if she could take my Fiesta to Kwik Fit and have them check the brakes. I called at lunch time (I don't have phone contact during lesson times) and Mrs EB was really upset. My car had been condemned!!! the head gasket had gone plus a few other things...it would cost a lot more than it was worth to put right!!!!

I had to leave work and sort it out, I was also having a very bad day at work....plus my PC was playing up...Mrs EB's laptop wasn't working ...the new washing machine is playing up....Mrs EB had taken the day off to sort things out for the Church’s 100th birthday celebration in March.....We know we are being attacked...but I really want to just curl up and cry.

Anyhooo we have bought a 2nd hand 4 year old Citroen Xara Picaso Desire lets hope it is good friend to us.

(this isn't our actual car)
