Sorta pressed the delete button by accident when the boss made an unexpected appearance and couldn't be arsed typing it again.

Anyway - I did get home just fine - thanks to the shoe lace holding the accelerator bits together. Just got to find the proper name for the bolt bit and get a new one.

Still - first time the Griff has let me down. Not bad in 5 years.

Joined the Mid-Essex Throttle-Bodging Club eh? Not sure I'd trust anything flammable under my bonnet, even for a short trip.

That reminds me, I must replace that jubilee clip in my tool kit.

Thank goodness you had a sensible pair of trainers on for the BBQ and not some strappy Essex girl white stilettos


Glad you got home okay Debs.

See you tomorrow.

Roo - also found out the sender of my mystery text message. Can't even break down on the A130 without someone I know sending me a text message.
