Bust

I obviously don't know my own strength.

I was happily cutting back some shrubbery and shredding it (well - I was cutting and shredding) when the secateurs broke.

That gave me the excuse to stop. Which is probably just as well because my back was begining to give up.

However, I will have to get a new pair tout suite because things ae really getting out of hand and I am getting sick of feeding the Japanese soldiers.

I was going to post a close upshot of the rimrim of my platter .................. but then I thought I had rammed that down your throats enough.

Daughters car was put in to the local garage for its 1st MOT today.
It was failed on several points - most of which would appear to be bogus. They also did something to the bonnet catch and it takes 2 people to open it.

They refused to give a price to fix the car today but say they can price it on Tuesday ......... when they come back from a long weekend.

It used to be a good, well priced and reliable garage but has recently changed hands.

The car is going to go elsewhere - somewhere we can tust (maybe a bit more expensive but with the car safety that will be worth it).

If the car fails on the same stuff .... fair enough. But if things don't mary up then Trading Standards and the Ministry of Transport will be calling.
