Yeah, so today, in casual conversation, K says to me: “oh! I got stopped by the police yesterday!”
“Did you?” I ask. “What for?” (knowing that her car isn’t working at the moment so it can’t be a random traffic stop)
“Well.. I was outside work at about quarter to 11 at night waiting for Mr B [...]

Yeah. I’m a super-skilled driver. I swear, I can find the nearest brick wall / skip in a 5 mile radius and reverse into it!
Yeah. I did it again. I reversed into a wall today. It was in this windy street on my way to see a client. There was a van coming the [...]

What an evening! After a hard day of work, I was out with one of my clients having a coffee. I came back to the car and the battery was absolutely flat!!
Luckily K came to the rescue. I called her to come and help me out while I walked over to the nearby Halfords [...]

Indeed it is. Preparation.
I’m the kind of person who needs to write lists. You know the one. The one who puts EVERYTHING into an outlook calendar and ‘invites’ you to important events via email to try and make you a bit more organized. The one who lists which pants to take away on holiday. [...]

Yeah ok, so I know it’s not Friday any more. But I had a BIG TRAUMA on Friday that I just HAD to blog about..
So, the car park at work is really difficult to park in. It’s very tight. And we double park so we can get more cars in.
Around lunchtime someone [...]

I’m slowly getting used to this ‘K being at work’ thing.. Though it is quite strange. We haven’t spent a night apart for a long time, and being alone again in the flat is very wierd. Every noise is a potential burglar, or squirrels / seagulls attacking the flat. Strange how you can get so [...]

Yes readers, today I am a hero. Today I was driving to work when I noticed something in the middle of the road. Turned out to be a St Bernard dog. Just standing there stopping the traffic. No sign of an owner anywhere. The guy driving a van on the opposite side of the road [...]

I’m not really quite sure what to write today, but I’m sitting in the office, in a rare moment of not having my boss right opposite me and thought I’d take advantage. I have an appointment at 6pm, which means I’ll be working until 7 and not home until 8, so I feel I’m owed [...]

It has been a funny old couple of weeks really.. I went oop north with K to help mum move house (but really to collect all my stuff from the loft and sort it out!). K and I got lots of doggy love from Hunny and Treacle and we got to nose through a [...]

So. In a dramatic *ahem* update to the previous post…. the car broke down on the way home. I got a jumpstart at work to get me going, and I thought it would be ok, what with not having to turn the engine off until I got home. But I was WRONG. Firstly the indicators [...]
