Well, I feel the need to vent..
I've had a crappy week with my car, and to top it off I've had a bad chest cold type thing which has been getting worse over the week. So rang up today to say I couldn't make the dive tomorrow :frown:
So I'm sat here, actually feeling a lot better, and for no reason whatsoever, my upper lip has decided to swell up like a balloon! Why?? I look like I'm wearing a gumshield!!
So looks like I'll be sat up for a while, seeing if it gets any worse (sigh)
Taken an anti histamine to se if that does the trick...
So please feel free to entertain me with any funny stories/links because I feel the need to be cheered up

Sorry to hear this Jo,

Good luck with the car. Sorry to hear its costing more money, your not diving and your unwell.

Well, there's this blokey on Gloc's Scapa thread who reckons there's no good shallow wreck sites :teeth: :teeth: :teeth: :teeth: :teeth: :teeth: :teeth:

Well, if it's any consolation I've just worked out that in the 12 months up to its MOT yesterday my car has had £1450 spent on it in repairs and maintenance alone and another £800 coming for work I've got scheduled next week. Add to that perhaps £2000 in depreciation over that period too. It's worth it though .

Finally got my hands on your fins yesterday too. They look like you've hardly used them!

Cheers.

Good to know u got them, enjoy
Apparently, I had an allergic reaction so spent all morning looking like a chipmonk, all better now tho`
My car`s up for sale, and I`ve found a cheap runabout to replace it (it`s an estate, so better 4 diving)
Hopefully next week will be better...

spent all morning looking like a chipmonk,

Scribley and Digger Chipmonk. The perfect Match

Talking of which, has anyone noticed the likeness between Digs & McGee in NCIS ?

Glad you're feeling better Scrib, good afternoon in the sun with bbq sausages and loads of diving talk always hits the spot

Me thinks that you are either watching too much of Digger or not enough TV!

Not enough TV ! mg: I've just about caught up with NCIS by watching it every night for the last 2 months and I still haven't seen the episode where Kate got shot :angry:
Can't help it. I've really got into it. I think it started 'cos Mark Harman is so good looking and I just love the goth forensic scientist that sleeps in a coffin. She's so cool and make me wanna be a goth

Anyone else hooked ?

I'd heard that Digger IS a TV

Well, in the space of 48hrs (while feeling like [email protected]) I've managed to advertise my car on Autotrader, sell it for my asking price cash in hand and pick up the new dive mobile :teeth:

Car's pretty good, the water jets don't squirt and there's a couple of reasonable sized rust patches in the engine bay that will probably need welding to pass it's MoT next year but other than that all looks pretty sound. Got a fair bit more power than I expected too (ok, I won;t be breaking any land speed records - or the national speed limit for that matter :wink: )
But for £650 i can't complain..


Here's looking forward to a better week :rainbow:

Post op?

Glad you're feeling better Jo.

Safe diving,

You will probably find that the screen wash pump is bu88ered, I seem to remember it mounts into the wash bottle that lives under the offside front wing, hidden by a bit of plastic and tends to seize up.

HTH,

 

[scribley]

Cheers, I`ll have a look into it

Now thats a dive car! Get a plastic/rubber boot tray for it, so the water dosen't spoil your new car.

search for Custoncarwizard on Ebay. We bought a plastic Boot Tray for a tenner.
