Arrghhhh!

Yes... Its Argghhhhhhh time.

Its Stoneleigh on Saturday.

My Insurance runs out today, and the MoT on Sunday.

Credit card has taken a bashing on the insurance, and an Mot has been begged from the local garage. They are fully booked on Saturday, and only have a Friday PM apointment and I cant get the time off work.

They are happy to pick it up drive it to the MoT and return it.

Hmmm I'm not so happy. The only alternative is to get my wife to drive it, and she wont.

Looks like I will have to trust the garage

2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

Best Regards

Im sure they would be!!!

Drop it off the night before and make a note of your mileage.

Isnt there a quick fit type place near you?? They can normally fit you in.

I always use an MOT place within walking distance of work. Probably not the cheapest, but I live 30 miles from work, so the convenience more than makes up for it....
