Some higher being really dun't want me driving my Landy...
I finally found a motor factors who said they could get a master cylinder for me, costing a bit over the odds and £60 plus VAT (the OEM spec one from Famous Four is £35+) and it would be there at half eleven.
"Great" thought I, I could get the offending item off, drive down, pick it up, come back and fit it and possibly get it in for the MOT in the afternoon.
Think again.
I got down there at just after 11. They had had a battery delivered in error and didn't have my number to call me.They'll have a replacement by four.
As it's a two hour round trip I decided do some stuff such as collect and drop of some plants for a planting project I got on
(linky), look at some Japanese Maples (if anyone reading is in the market for an acer or three let me know, I've found an awesome source with lovely plants at very reasonable prices), had a hair cut and got back there at four.
They'd had the wrong one delivered - apparently they're labelled up wrong (3/4" rather than 1"). So I got to drive down there this morning. What a ball ache!
