Evening all,
After deciding last year I needed something a bit faster as my daily, my poor disco got banished to the drive, was declared sorn and left to willow away.
After putting the daily through it's paces I started to detect myself moving back towards my younger years of driving style, like a w@nk3r so I booked the landy in for an mot and as if by magic it went straight through.
After driving home today and getting stuck in what felt the worst traffic jam ever, I was swearing and cursing like a hardman in a school playground at lunchtime. I then came home and behaved like a troll to my wife. After a tummy full of dinner, a cuppa and a biscuit and a sorry and a kiss I've realised the problem.
Driving a normal car turns you into a beast like everyone else on a 9 to 5. I've spent the last 10 minutes looking and my landy and even smelling the stale interior which I so much missed. I've ordered a new fan belt and tensioner bearing and am going to insure her tomorrow. By the weekend we will be back in each others arms and I won't have a care in the world.
The daily will be sold and some other unfortunate person will be overridden with misery.
The moral of the story is the slower and clunky the car the better the drive home. Now I just have the snow to wait for and I can watch them run for the hills whilst I blast up them! Fookin whahey!
