The above pic is Flo’, parked outside our local ‘Spoons. We go there for brunch fairly frequently. It’s so cheap! And, occasionally, their Thursday evening Curry Nights.
First bit of news is bad… The Garage rang today, to inform us that Flo’ needs a new complete new clutch. I’d hoped it’s just be a clutch master cylinder, as the RAC guy had suggested it might me.
Well, it’ll cost a shitload more, as a result. Basically all the money we were recently refunded by E-On. Major bummer!
On a more positive note, a guy came out to us today from Anglian Water, and sorted out a blockage in the communal sewers, which serve our house and several others. So after several days living in fear of a poo tsunami, things are back to bog standard once again.
The ‘Flo’ Finished’ in this post’s title refers not to our car, thank goodness. But to the kitchen flo’. Which Teresa secretly finished painting, as I lay abed, snoozing, this morning.
There are a few spots that need touching up. And small patches I’ll have to paint where a wooden block has been holding white goods up off the floor (allowing us to paint a little way under them).
Teresa’s just returned from a trip to the chemist, to pick up a prescription, with some cheap but cheerful charity shop acquisitions:
I’m chilling watching The UK Snooker Championship, and Teresa’s doing little bits ‘n’ bobs…
