Well, the title says it all.
Working nights last week, so when I went out on Saturday morning and the steering went "CRACK" I went to the garage I use as I would have neither the time or the inclination to deal with it myself. Turned out to be both front springs broken, so both those with two new top mounts and ARB bushes left me £286 worse off.
Picked Pierre up on Tuesday afternoon, on arriving home Mrs Coco tells me that her father has been taken to hospital and she would like to visit him next week. That's fine thinks me as I'm off all week.
Get home Thursday morning and she tells me that the Hospital say we, "should visit, as he's quite poorly". Uh-oh - that doesn't sound good, so flights booked for Friday a.m., Bristol - Glasgow, the hire car to Aberdeen. Work told I won't be in etc etc.
As we are leaving at 0800 Friday, telephone call to say the old fella died an hour ago. So some tears etc and we decide to go anyway.
So that was another £300 spent.
To cap it all I come back and find that PK has left us - how bad can things get ????
