Re: Wednesday Return
I will cal this 'Not a happy bunny Wednesday'......
On Monday the clutch started playing up on the car.........
On Monday afternoon I get a puncture in the front offside tyre. Bear in mind this is a long wheelbase Nissan Terrano 4x4, so you can image the size and weight of the wheels.
Took it to the local tyre man for repair (yes, tyres can still be plugged over here) only to find there was a 1" split in it and therefore non-repairable.
So 2 new tyres needed (why 2 you ask, because the stupid Spanish law is that both tyres on the same axle have to be identical, to the extent the the serial numbers have match.( What a fantastic money making scheme that is)
Having them fitted today, €120 each, ouch.
The clutch problem was a sticking pedal caused by a worn pin, well the old bus is 10 years old. I have a great mechanic, and I mean mechanic not a fitter. He will fix things not just replace them.
Only cost me €40, phew.
Today the washing machine has given up the ghost, normally I can sort things but the bearings are shot so a bit to complicated for me, and expensive to repair professionally.
haven't looked yet for a replacement, but looks like about €300 +/-.
Lets hope that's the 3 things for this month.........
