I was all set to get back into the gym again on Tuesday when, on the way up the A23, there was a sudden "bang" from under the bonnet and the car shuddered to a halt...
Long story short - the car is completely screwed and I need a new one. It's going to be hard to get to the gym for a few days as it's about 2 miles from my house. If I don't have a car by the end of the weekend then I'm just going to have to start walking home after the gym (hell, I run more than 2 miles on average while I'm there) but it's annoying as I was so psyched up ready for it and now I'm just waiting for the right car to turn up for the right price.
It'll be great to have a "new" car though. Might give me a bit more motivation for a while, getting to tool around town in my nice new motor.
