Birthday Bro

Today is the official day which marks my brother's 40th, which cosisted of a family BBQ get together (last saturday's party was just a warm up!). Great weather, great food, great beer and great to see everyone again.

On the downside, this morning it was confirmed that our Scenic's clutch is on it's way out after some strange noises were being ommitted from the bonnet over the last few days. We had to borrow Mrs. Tuttles sister's car to get to the BBQ. As a result we had to leave the BBQ a bit early to pick her up from some friend's farm closer to home.

Some serious decision making will be required over the next week or so as the cost of a new clutch unit, including labour is a little less than the value of the car. Nightmare.
