Some of you know that my partner and I are just back from 4 weeks swanning around the USA (well doing a damn good impersonation of swanning around on a dollar that's work 66 cents) Arrived home to be met at the airport with the news that number one son's mini isn't working - when the RACV towed it home for him they said it was either the fuel pump or the coil - I'd have thought even a moderately interested mechanic could have picked it as one or the other. I came home crook so didn't get to the car until a week later and, in preperation wandered off to the garage to grab a spare coil that was lurking there only to find that the Princess has decided to blow a hydro bag while I've been away and is almost lying on her side I'm not game to check any of the rest of the fleet in case they all have little suprises for me end rant

Maybe they are all trying to get revenge for you abandoning them for 4 weeks? Like a bunch of kids chucking a tantrum

Out of my mini and the swift, it's the swift that gets jelous and misbehaves after spending time with the other car.

Cherry is a lot happier now that the VS has left my house & she became my only vehicle.

Mr Ballistic is making a home visit to get the mini running - he seemed less than excited about the prospect of lifting the Princesses skirts though
