this is old sh!te :: august '04... pubic house... Monday, August 30, 2004 Four of us went for dinner at the Black Jug pub in Horsham last night. Absolute bollox. The highlight of the meal was when Olly found a curly pube in his starter, muahahah, and then they tried to tempt him with some plastic in his pie! I won't be eating there again, and the waitress could certainly benefit from a customer service course. Or a boob job. posted by jpa @ 8:52:02 PM space cat... Thursday, August 26, 2004 I've added some new photos under the cats and garden section. However I think Gert's been over doing the amphetimines. posted by jpa @ 10:06:19 AM aob... Tuesday, August 24, 2004 There's a new pic on the aob page, thanks to Olly and his woofer Louie. Sarah was wondering where all her makeup was going.. posted by jpa @ 8:26:09 AM vw blow goats... Wednesday, August 18, 2004 Arrived at work this morning, lowered the car window to swipe my card, and clunk! The fecking window fell into the door! That's both of them now! I'm just glad I bought a three door car so no more windows can break. So I don't get burnt by Sidlow VW again I've taken it to GCS Engineering to be repaired as their labour is cheaper, and hopefully have competent mechanics. Might ask them to spray the car yellow whilst it's there as it's such a fecking lemon! On a brighter note, I'm getting married one month today! Oh - my - god! :O posted by jpa @ 2:51:41 PM pumpytrousers... Monday, August 16, 2004 P and I went out for a few beers and a curry last night. Although it tasted divine we must have been fed the last of the week's reheats, as P was off sick today and my bottom played the Last Night Of The Proms all day long. So tuneful it was I nearly burst out laughing from trap 1. Anyway, stroke the screen at the lovely fur I've added top and bottom. The Gert chose it! posted by jpa @ 8:51:27 PM about fecking time too... Monday, August 09, 2004 Picked up my supposedly repaired Golf at lunchtime. So far the temperature stays at 90, the speedo speeds, and the petrol gauge has stopped its headbanging. No doubt on my way home the engine will leap out on a big comedy spring. posted by jpa @ 3:38:30 PM ffffffffs! Friday, August 06, 2004 Well VW shook their magic eightball, and this time asked if the car's coolant pump was broken. "You can be sure of it", the mystic globe replied, so I fiiiinally picked my Golf up at 6pm. Drove down the road, the petrol gauge was bouncing about, and the speedo wasn't working! So I swung it round the nearest roundabout and stormed into VW again. So now I'm driving a courtesy car due to their fecking incompetence! And the tank was empty! The wheels will prolly fall off when I collect my car on Monday. Absolutely fecking useless. posted by jpa @ 7:02:43 PM overtaken... Wednesday, August 04, 2004 That's me you've just passed on the dual carriageway. My crappy Golf has decided to bitch about the engine overheating if I do anything close to 70mph, with the temperature needle going up the scary end of 130 degrees. "STOP. Check Coolant" it demands. :O I've done all the obvious checks and if you switch the ignition off and back on the gauge reads 90 again but to be on the safe side I'm crawling to work. So today VW had a looksey and they're stumped too. Great! They changed the temperature sensor and the problem remains. Apparently the dash is now to blame. Goodbye £180 on Friday then... Crappy bollox. ::sob:: posted by jpa @ 8:31:17 PM
