Just thought i,d share a nightmare of a day i had yesterday , here goes driving my car on the way to snooker and broke down in a village called Dinas , so went to phone RAC n my battery on mobile was virtually dead , nearest phone bow was half a mile away in Porth . Took a stroll down to porth phoned the mrs n asked her to phone the RAC , walked back to the car tried n it started , i thought great end of nightmare .
Drove a mile further and car stalls again right in the middle of a busy street , goes into shops asking for a payphone , no such luck , two women come to my rescue and pushed the car in the nearest space .
Left hazzards on in car and caught bus to explain to RAC what had happened , mrs said RAC had phoned and they were in Dinas Powys as thats where they thought i was ( omg ) . Turns out i put petrol in instead of diesel
Phoned RAC explained that the car was now in Williamstown so they arranged a new call out , catches next bus back only to find a Kojak on the scene , asked whats up and he said the car was causing an obstruction so he called a recovery unit to pick it up . I explained the circumstances to Kojak but he wer,nt having none of it , even thought the RAC were on the scene , he was adament it get towed away .
Smoke coming out of my ears i had to catch a few busses to pick the kids up from school , waiting for the bus i had a phone call as i managed to charge the phone a little earlier on , it was the mrs , Hello Neil they have clamped your car , i said no its been taken into storage , then she explains that the car i had for sale outside the house which has just ran out of tax has been clamped .
So i,m sitting here Today having to find £460 to get my cars back and feeling suicidal .
WHAT A FU~~~~~ day .
