Joys of self employment
« on: January 28, 2011, 05:52:02 pm »
Had a nice weekend away planned with the missus u know nice B&B, nice dinner etc etc then today the vans starter motor has gone kaput and the battery also near end of useful life so now gotta spend £175 tomorrow to sort it  :( .... ...   weekend away now cancelled ... in fairness missus ok about it ....   in old job if car went wrong used to just give keys to service department and someone else picked the bill up.

somedays ur up and somedays ur down i guess  ;)
