bad things or good things - 07:35 PM
(filed under 'general')
poo bum. i can't start my enjo training tomorrow as i'd hoped.
our second car blew up this afternoon. shroom said that there was smoke pouring out from under the bonnet & that bits of the engine fell out onto the road & everything.
as bad things go, this turned out pretty well though, because we were about to pay for six more months of registration on it & we were also about to buy four new tyres. i'm so glad we didn't spend that money.
it's also not such a bad thing, despite my disappointment, that i have to do the enjo training next month instead, because i'm supposed to have six to ten demonstrations booked before i start training, but i only have one.
anyway, like i said, as bad things go, this turned out pretty good.
Wish we could host an Enjo demonstration for you. Alas, we live on the other side of globe though.
Bummer about the car. I'm just glad Shroom didn't have an accident when it happened. When you look at how well it turned out considering how bad it could have been, I'd say the car going boom isn't such a bad thing after all.

oh dear, Thats happened to me going accross the severn bridge (which crosses the river between Wales and England)which is an extremely dangerous part of the motorway here in the UK to actually break down. Luckily I was nearly over the bridge and had to free wheel down the slip road off the bridge into a parking spot. My husband had failed to put oil in the engine causing it to literally bang loudly and deposit parts of the engine onto the road behind me, pretty scarey stuff!! Although, as I needed a car. (my husband would disagree that I actually do need a car as I only work a mile away from where I live and the schools are just accross the road from me for the children hehe)I got a brand spanking new one yeahhhhhhhh.
