Title: Me again
Post by: Johnboy0811 on 04 December 2008, 19:35:16
Been away from the site for a few days been working and then the wife had stuff planned and just didn't get round to coming on and saying hello. Anyway finally took the motor to the garage after Steph (my wife) moaned one time to uch about the heating not working properly. She is going in next week as she has a cracked rad and also a leak from the v or something. It's gonna cost 400 quid to put it right thats parts and VAT included. I must admit I wasn't best pleased when I found out but now I think about I suppose it could have been a lot worse.

Was thinking of trying to do it myself but then the wife told me to stop being tight either pay for it to be done and stop whining about the cost etc or sell it and get something else. Now I certainatly don't want to sell so I guess I'm gonna have to stump up the cash.

I'm thinking of getting my own back on her and telling her that it's gonna be her chrimbo present :y

Not sure it will go down to well as she has benn adding to her list since October and I'm sure I didn't see car maintenance on there :)

The only thing that needs plugging on my missis is her mouth sometimes she goes on and on for ages and she's only 28 can't wait until she gets to 48 as her jaw may have worn out by then :y
