AAAAARGGGGHHH. NOT a Happy Bunny

Well everything was going more or less to schedule today. Went to hire trailer, hooked it up but trailer socket was FUBAR'd.
Dash home get new socket with cable and fit. Back to trailer hire centre but no indicators out of trailer socket.


AAAAAAAARGGGGHHHH

Cannot afford to spend any more time FAFING about. So it is with regret that Mr Bumble will be staying firmly ensconced within his garage this weekend.



I will not have time to dress, fitt and tack exhaust stubs, or refit nose cone. So I am sorry to say that I will be leaving my car at home.





Beware of the Goldfish in the tulip mines. The ONLY defence against them is smoking peanut butter sandwiches.

Too honest mate, in a situation like that I think I would have hitched up anyway with the phrase "they were working when I set of" ready in the back of my mind

I know the feeling. I borrowed a trailer to go and collect my car from Worx. When I hitched-up at 03:30 to set off on the 3 hour plus journey I found that I had no lights at all. Having messed about with he sockets for ages I gave up. Once it was light I checked all of the bulbs - every one of them was blown. In the end, I ended up replacing half of the wiring on someone else's trailer and I never made it to Steve's. You have my complete sympathy!
