Ok. So I got all my housework done and then went to the shops with the full intentions of when I got back .. I would sort the issue. OHHHH but the gods were against me.

By the time that I got myself sorted.. a neighbourly nextdoor neighbour came over.. and well after 5 bourbons lets just say I didn't fix what I wanted. SO.. I decided to install my new number plates :D they look swank..

Then my indicators stopped working again. So I retired inside just as it started raining. WEEE what fun :S..

Edit--> Isn`t that slang for what a bunch of mini cooper "S" owners talk about at the club meetings???
