Small, irritating things...

Posted By : Dan Owen, 20-Apr-2007, 02:21pm

So, after most of the week spent scraping off flaky old underseal and applying 2 coats of Dinitrol (effective if somewhat pricy) I had PLANS for today. Nothing elaborate, just a drive down a quiet, twisty road to Monmouth where I was going to eat chips (best in the county) and a danish or two, then spend a quiet hour on a bench watching the world go by in general, and paying particular attention to the tiniest miniskirts known to men worn by the local sixth form girls (who can't walk fast on the cobbles)... Until, that is, I came to replace the wheels this morning, whereupon the very last wheelnut stripped easily and spun uselessly - and guess who doesn't have a spare?

Just goes to prove it doesn't always have to be the big things that give you grief... bet it'll snow on Monday (even if new nuts arrive tomorrow I'll be too busy, I don't like weekends!) just to be cussed!
