Got a call this morning from the garagewhere the car is booked in and getting fixed. The mechanic has took out the gear box and the clutch fly wheel is totalled, because of this it will add another £400 on to the final price now i am looking at £879 in total ... OUCH its the cost of a mac air laptop, a two week holiday somewhere hot plasma tv with games console ,a decent chritmas , i have even bought and owned cars in the past that didn't cost that much,oh the joys of motoring .Its good job we both think shes worth it.

Woke up this morning ready to put battery back in to car banging headache and no hot water boiler packed in again pay British gas a service charge every month they come out and fix it free of charge .

Replaced battery car didn't fire up with the car already in gear, out of gear it started then once the engine was ticking over i couldn't select any gears typical it was solid couldn't even force it in to 2ND gear reverse or first i phoned the garage that they would have to tow it in , eventually after leaving the engine running and trying to recode the radio i eventually got it in gear and manage to drive it the half mile to the garage its booked in to for repairs , the master cylinder has collapsed its going to be £350 to fix it i was expecting around £600 so iam happy its a lot less.

Gas repair man came out and fixed boiler that's one bill i don't have to pay for hot water and radiators back on .

Also phoned PC world then Dell to sort out a new power lead for the laptop, the other one packed in moby chewed it but they didn't know that should receive it the post tomorrow another thing fixed.

last night i didn't get home until quarter to seven even though i left at work at four went to Boot,s and to poundworld then the rest of the time i was on the bus stuck in a gridlock listening to Nickleback on my i-phone .

worked until one got home and we took Moby out for his first walk he was scared of the cars and refused to walk on , we only made a few hundred yards before i went back to the house for his rubber ball, i bounced it and he followed did about five hundred yards then it started to rain and still he was afraid of the passing traffic we picked him up to carry him his ears was back and he was fretful so we headed home.
we went to the local pet shop bought a retractable 25 foot lead and a harness , once it was dark went to the local cemetery about a quarter of a mile away Helen's grandma is buried there , he was fine although it was dark we navigated the path and graves said jokingly to Helen hes found a bone when in fact it was a twig , he wasn't spooked by his surroundings and he was 100% better than he was in the afternoon as we headed home it started to rain again .

Taken the day off work i have to go to the hospital with Helen, she is finally going to see a specialist,at the neurology department to see whats going on , its been a longtime coming hopefully nothing will be a miss ,I spend most days at the same Hospital cleaning last weekend i was on theatres last night x-ray plaster room anti natal. i am now covering a wider area of the hospital and have moved out of my regular cleaning duties ,the time i am there goes a lot faster now and i am preferring it to what i worked on the last few years cleaning the creche which was always sand and paint and pva glue and rock solid weetabix spillages which was left over from breakfast and sets like concrete, they could repair the rest of the Hospital with that stuff , also i am meeting more people and getting more overtime which will help towards the repair bill for the car .
Helen chipped one of her tooth last night at the moment she is more concerned over that , seeing that she hates dentists and has a deep phobia over drills and pain and deep root treatments don't we all.
Moby has learnt to give high five when asked counting down the days to when we can pick his lead up and shout walks i know it will be all weathers come rain or shine wind hail and snow put we are both looking forward to it and it will give Helen the confidence to get out more during the day whilst i am at work.

Freelander is off the road literally till end of the month, so its a second week of catching buses. its a pain i have to get up earlier and get home later which is no joy less time with Helen . Roll on when its fixed will keep this car till its dismise i will have to keep repairing it no chance of buying a new one to much interest over too long a time be five years to get a newer freelander with not much less mileage.
Helen is doing fine with her phone we wouldn't swap them cant say the same about the car.
Moby has his second injection Saturday he is doing well and can on command lay down , give paw. sit , and roll over he is grown in size incredibly fast , he has not chewed anything he shouldn't including Harvey the ragdoll.
